Super clean man. Love the wheels. I’m going to try to run stocks with 33/11.5’s before I get some bronze ones

Thank you very much, my wife bought me that truck last november and as soon as parts are released. I am building my last dream truck.
Those tires are 255 80 17 or a true 33x9.5
About an inch and a half taller than stock, but i'm getting better mileage because there skinnier. Take it from an old man that's ran fat tires on a toyota, don't do it unless you have lots of money to replace parts and with this particular gen buy lots of gas.

1.5” Level installed and air dam removed. Next step tires

I went with just 265/70's for now with the same RC level kit.

Plan 275/70's next time now that I am comfortable with it.

I also got 2 full size spares, TRD Sport and mounted KO2's on them.

Looks killer man. I’m going to try to squeeze a 285/70 M/T in and see what happens. Swore I saw a post of someone running them and they said they didn’t have to trim but we shall see

285/70r18 M/T’s installed and it fits perfect. No rubbing at full lock and no trimming needed.

Welcome to the TRD Sport cult, sometimes the stepchildren of this site LOL with all the OR guys. I would suggest a skid plate for sure especially with the air dam removed. Although my truck is a highway princess with some ski mountain and beach runs, I had a rock kick up on the highway hard enough to ding the skid plate which otherwise would have hit something vital. I am very happy with this one. The guy only sells on ebay. Great quality, not a rock sliding plate, but also much lighter. However it’s well made and provides more than enough protection if you are not hard core off roading over boulders.
