    But don't you have to modify brake systems when you have bigger tires than stock

    Thanks HutchJ! I'll do that I appreciate the advice.

    I see you have a new tundra. I also have a 2014 Tundra SR5. I use it mainly for a work truck but, I love the 5.7 iforce engine. The gas mileage is only 14 but, my employer buys my gas so, it's not too painful.

    mwc273, I was thinking about 3" would be plenty To give me enough clearance. But, I wasn't sure what size tire I would be able to use, currently I keep dragging bottom on the more difficult obstacles. Thank goodness for my RCI skid plates!!
