    Alright, so I plan on lifting my Tacoma and would like to know if this wheel-tire setup will fit with the lift. Also if anybody has recommendations for similar wheels at around the same price range, steelies preferably. And would it be smarter to go 8" or 8.5" wide on the wheels rather than 9'?

    LIFT - OLD MAN EMU
    - Front OME 90021 Sports Shocks (stock front weight)
    - Front 885 Coils (for double cab + additional weight) (approx 2'' lift)
    - Front Top Spacer Kit (for full 3'' lift)
    - Front Upper Control Arms
    - Standard Dakar Leaf Pack (approx 2.5" lift)
    - Rear Nitrocharger Sport 60091 Shocks
    - Front Diff Drop
    - Rear Driveshaft Carrier Bearing Drop Kit

    Wheel - ProComp Series 97
    17x9 (6x5x5)
    -19 offset
    4.25 backspacing
    Tire - Falken Wildpeak AT3W - P285/70R17

    Thanks for any help!
    ps- this is what the truck looks like now12.5.20-24 2.jpg

    Sounds like it's gonna be a beast. However, as i think others will chime in you're most likely still going to have to do the cab mount chop and maybe beat your pinch welds in inside your fenders so those 285's can turn lock to lock without rubbing. From what I gather the lift itself doesn't help that situation at all.

    Backspacing is your friend when it comes to wheels and tires, I have 33x12.50 on a set of fuel couplers 18x9, +1mm offset can’t remember the backspacing off the top of my head. I only had to do minor trimming to the fender flares down in the wheel well at the bottom, and cut like and 1/8th of inch off the front wheel well liner on a 2 inch leveling kit from rough country4F8D52A5-4CD7-42D1-A6FB-B0A4C37623B6.jpgE943CC1E-799A-4B31-AA9C-07AB04AB11A9.jpg3C8A38E2-C1A7-4C5C-AC03-7720D2EFC446.jpg
