    First off, welcome to Tacoma World!

    So, I have a couple questions for you.

    1. Do want to just run your truck on the street, or will you take it off road?
    2. What is the backspacing on your rims?

    Basically, I think you have to cut/grind to get 33x12.5s to fit for wheeling but the offset on your wheel will affect how much is required.

    ^I, personally, would not go any more than a 1" body lift. Anything more and they get sketchy, if you ask me.

    With 3.75 backspace rims and a 1" bodylift you might be able to just trim your pinch weld and be done with it.

    Even with a little offroading you think 1" would be enough?
