Does it look like I can run +20 offset wheels with this clearance?

    For those interested.....I got the +20 offset wheels on there now. Fixed almost all the rubbing. Just got to do some plastic molding and trimming. I did some pretty aggressive snow wheeling yesterday....during very heavy flexing I *thought* I may have heard it rubbing the cab mount a little, but on inspection of the mount it doesn't look like it. If it did it was extremely minor.

    I am also probably going to drop the lift down about 0.5-1" overall, so that should help push the tire a little more forward and hopefully clear the cab mount without worry even in the most extreme situations.

    Only thing I for sure am rubbing at full lock is the sway bar. Not too bad, but enough to warrant a fix.

    I will probably post a more detailed "Fitting 34s on your Taco without a CMC" thread, but so far it appears wheel offset was the saving grace for clearance on a tire this size. I originally went with 0 offset based on forum recommendations. Based on my experience and tire size, this was not the right choice. In my humble opinion if you don't care about the "look" of having a more negative offset wheel then go with as much positive offset as you can and still clear the UCA and steering components. It also seems the more negative offset, the more wear and tear it can cause on your wheel bearings.

    Just my 2 cents.
