    Hi all,

    First-time Taco owner here, been lurking around and settled on a IVD Stage 4 suspension to be installed in preparation for some armor and eventual wheeling and light-moderate rock crawling.

    I am keeping my base model (2015 Access Cab 4x4) wheels without spacers, and throwing on some 265/75R16 Cooper ST Maxx tires on there. Am I crazy to be doing this?

    My real question is will this be alright with the 3" lift? Or will I be required to run spacers? Would prefer not to get new wheels, but please educate me!

    Sorry if this is a newbie question!

    If anybody has a setup like this, by all means please post pics!

    Here's a "before" pic of mine. The "after" pic will be coming soon!

    yeah your wheels won't get in the way. the tires you're wanting to run shouldn't rub anything either

    You'll most likely need 1" spacers to prevent any rubbing on the UCA's, that's if your current wheels are 5.5" backspacing. You shouldn't need a cab mount chop with those size tires but you may want to get one if you ever move up to 285/75's

    Word. I know before I got new wheels, my O/R wheels wrapped in 285/75's had just enough room to stick one finger between the tire and UCA.
