    My prior trucks were full size and I leveled them and installed larger tires because the rake was too aggressive due to domestic full size truck towing wars and the tires looked too small once you leveled. Tacoma’s on the other hand I think look great stock so I have no plans to modify.

    Thanks :) And this poll was more for educational purposes.. I was curious.

    Although I will say I went to my dealer this weekend to check on the whole "Toyota OEM rack vs Fin" debacle (no news yet btw) and saw they had several Tacoma's they lifted with the "Level Lift" (2.5 5100's in front and 1" block in back) with 285/70R17 and it looked very nice.

    2.5" nothing big, with 265/75. Its an Icon stage 5. Not about the height but about the performance. This suspension rocks and gets put through the paces often.

    This is what 1.5” in the front and 3” in the back looks like. The rake is fine. The ride is even better.

    Neither ... go wider:
    That way you can actually off road your truck in a meaningful and fulfilling fashion and stop posting up bullshit about clearing 33” tires with your pathetic disco “lift”

    I am stock for now. Haven't had much of a chance to offroad yet. When I can get out and hit some trails I will then consider my needs and adjust from there. If I do ever lift it will not be crazy like the 5.5 inch lift I did with my 1991 Explorer. I did more serious trails when it was stock vs. lifted.Explorer02.jpg

    I mean, I'm all for long travel desert running, but the truck is already too wide for certain trails. I guess meaningful and fulfilling to some people means rock crawling and to others it means replacing your steering rack every time you actually jump it.
