    2" lift
    New to this world with the purchase of a 2023 TRD Sport, grey, 4WD, crew cab, 6" bed and Leer cap.

    Recently added a 2" lift, P285-70-R17 tires mounted on factory wheels with a 0.25" spacer plate for clearance.

    First issue was learning the Gorilla aftermarket splined lug nuts use a tapered nose face for aftermarket wheels vs. the factory washer and face seal. I have been looking for an extended spline OEM style lug to grab more of the stud through the spacer and allow a normal torque spec. No luck so far.....

    Does anyone know if this unicorn exists?

    All that said, I started looking at wheels and there are many choices. My next dilemma is determining the factory offset so I can figure out what I need.

    Any ideas where I can look to find this offset info?

    To my understanding, I need an additional negative offset of about 6.35mm added to the factory offset for minimal clearance equivalent to my 1/4" spacer/OEM wheel combination.

    Any thoughts, suggestions or referrals would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    FWIW ... this was lifted from a person who said he stole it from another ... "original spec information" ...

    Welcome! I agree with the recommendation to post in the wheels and tires section; they'll get you set up I'm sure.
