    What type of use will this truck see? Hauling? Towing? Offroad? Mall crawling?

    Can't say I recommend (1) Rough Country and (2) a spacer lift.

    What he said. Don't go cheap on a brand new truck, or any truck for that matter if you can. Buy something a little better without spacers.

    Complete junk IMHO. I would never put that crap on a $30,000 + truck.

    Lifting your Tacoma has nothing to do with what sized tire you can fit without rubbing. The geometry of the truck stays the same with 99% of lifts. Do some searching around for more info...there are hundreds of threads on lifts.

    All a lift like that one does is kill your down travel so when you hit a pothole your truck bottoms out in the rear (not good) and extends your LCA's farther than they should be so CV bind could be a real issue.
