The wheels and tires look great!

Any impressions / photos after the TRD 2.5" lift ?

Not yet! Dropped it off yesterday, waiting for the call to come pick it up today. Hopefully it'll be done soon!

Ok, got back the truck. Looks amazing! Here's a few pics for now until I can get time to take better pics.

Also, regarding rubbing. I purposely went with 285/75R17 and +18mm offset thinking that would be the absolute max without rubbing. I was partially right. They had to slightly trim the plastic, but you can't even tell. Had I gone with a less aggressive tire, it probably wouldn't have rubbed.

So for anyone asking or looking, 285/75/17 with +18mm offset is absolute max. After that, expect to trim for sure.

Does it rub full turn?

So going with a slightly smaller tire, less aggressive tires or +25mm offset would probably solve the problem.

I did have to remove mud flaps, air dam, and crash bars.

Question for OP, how come R/T trail vs open country at3?

I wantd a more aggressive tire. I actually wanted the R/T non-trail, but they were out of stock.

I used the new Tacoma trd off road 17 inch wheels powder coated all black. The stock offset and 285 70 17 have no issues. Just an fyi as another option.

After that trimming you’ll be set for the road. But with a +18 offset at full flex, you’ll come in contact with your upper fender.

But if you aren’t planning to push it that hard, you’ll be fine.

I'm intrigued by your mention of this wheel. Any chance you could provide a link to the specific wheel?

I bought them from eBay.

I’ve been considering the trd lift kit. How is the ride compared to before? My main concern is I need the ride softer especially after the at tires, I can feel much more of the small bumps and what not. I know the fox 2.0 are pretty plush according to alldogsoffroad video he had.
