    1.5" leveling kit, 2" rear blocks & 1.25" wheel spacers
    Hey guys, new member here. I have a 2009 Toyota Tacoma TRD 4WD 4-door. It was stock up until about 2 weeks ago. I put a 1-1/2" leveling kit on the front and 2" rear block on the back. I'm now looking around for new tires, but I'm wondering what size I can run without rubbing. I also would like a little wider stance and thought that wheel spacers may be for me as well. Does anyone have a similar setup or have any knowledge about a setup like this? What's the largest tire I can run and what if I had 1.5" wheel spacers what would be the difference without rubbing.

    Thanks

    Also look up the wheel spacer thing. A lot of people say they're bad.

    too many factors go into tire fitment (backspacing, tire size, alignment specs). There are a couple stickied threads about this you should read though that will give you more knowledge. Biggest thing to remember is lift does NOT give you the ability to stuff larger tires. The best way to fit tires is to let your truck sit on its bump stops and turn hard left and and hard right. If you don't have any rubbing your golden, if you do rub, time to get out that angle grinder.

    265 70 17 or 265 75 16 would be the safe bet.
