I know I need spacers cause I mounted 285/75/16 on my stock rims with a 3 inch lift and now the tires are touching upper suspension components. Would spacers be the way to go. Or would that cause rubbing on my fenders? 2009 tacoma
 
I would use .75-1.25in spacers, about two months ago I tried to fit 2in spacers and they rubbed on the cab mounts on the frame and made it undrive-able
 
that is one of the problems with bigger tires on stock rims, backspacing. I have 285/70's on SCS Stealth 6's w/ a 3" lift I only had to trim some plastic & do the cab mount chop.

I believe Spidertrax are the way to go :thumbsup:
 
Spider trax are nice but $$$ im running moda spacers 1,25in on all corners you can get them on amazon for $90 per axle and yes they are hub centric and no i have no vibration no rubbing no cutting

Hey smokinjoe...can you post some pis of your truck? I'm runnning 18"x9" wheels w/ 265/60R18 tires and Bushwacker flares...I want to bring my wheels and tires out even with the flares. I was thinking of 1.25 on the rear and .75 on front. Anyway, pics and/or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Jtfortune3...what 3" lift kit did you go with?

Thanks.
Randy

What is the proper backspacing needed for a 3" lift? I'm doing research and only confusing myself. Backspacing, offset, ect....... Help from anyone would be great.
