    I just bought a 2016 TRD, and was wondering what I would need to fit 34s or 35s. I think it has a lift currently, not sure if it’s stock or not. Seems to have that factory rake to the front end still. But I’m currently running 285x70s which I know are just short of 33s. I don’t rub at all unless at full lock and hitting a bump.

    None so far
    Well that's definitely lifted already. From the research I've done on getting to 35's you'll need to relocate the front cab mount and do some trimming on the bumper and fender liners

    Chop the cab mount or relocate, fold your pinch weld, trim front and rear plastic, and take a bfh to the back of the wheel well. If you wanna do it right, pull your coilovers and cycle to full bump full lock left and right. Cut everything the tire touches and then some to account for body flex.

    The color and trd flares make the access look so good.

    My experience after a 2.5inch front/1.5 inch rear suspension lift was no rub on +4 offset with 285/70/17. When I went to -12 offset on same tires, then I rubbed on cab mount. Since then I have done a very aggressive CMC, hammered down pinch welds, viper cut and some trimming on fenders on same size tires and now -25 offset and no rub. Just eyeballing it, I can go 285/75/17 (34’s) and will easily clear my cab mount and will likely clear the front fender. If I go 295/70/17 (slightly shorter but wider tire) I think I will clear but occasionally rub. I really want to go 315/70/17s and I know will clear the cab mount but will most likely rub the fender but will ask the wheel alignment tech to push the front wheels forward (by doing some adjustments on the LCAs and UCAs) to hopefully get me another 1/2 clearance. I know this is doable because a few guys have done it. I’m just trying to avoid doing a CMR, but if you seek to put on 35x12.5 than you will probably need a CMR done.
