That looks good.

You mentioned in another thread “2.5” leveling kit and 265/79R70 tires on stock wheels with 1/4” spacers.”

Can you verify that tire and wheel size again?
Yes, that is my setup with 265/70R17 tires. After a few trips down pretty tough trails near my place no rubbing and the truck does every bit as well as my 2014 Tacoma Off-Road with a similar setup. Loving it so far.

I'm running +3.5" w/ 285/70-17 Ridge Grapplers. I also dropped the front spoiler and put the FX4 skid on, which probably impacted things. All said, I dropped down to about 17 Highway/15 City. Got the Livernois 93 Octane Tune, and that put me back at 21 Highway/18 City. The tune will pay for itself in time.
That looks like an excellent setup, thanks for sharing! Glad to hear the tune helped out with both performance and getting back some of the lost MPG as well. Fuel mileage increases are not something that we really advertise since there are so many variables, but I typically tell customers that our average customer feedback is 1-2 MPG improved. This is of course when driving more with economy in mind which is difficult to do in these trucks especially when tuned. ;)

33s, icon stage 2 lift and 3.5 inch lift, and a gfb dv+. Finally had a long cruise where I wasn't towing, uphill from LA to bishop and averaged 20.9 mpg at about 10mph above limit
