Terry - Wheel rub is a concern any time you add a bigger, wider set of tires. However, it’s been my experience that it’s only an issue when you completely compress the suspension and/or when you turn the steering wheel to the full range. Unless you do a lot of parallel parking or over-loading, a 33″ set of tires and leveling kit (a 3″ front 1″ rear should fit a set of 33’s) won’t be an issue in terms of tire-rub. As for transmission issues, that’s news to me. Slightly larger tires don’t impact the powertrain substantially (there’s no need for bigger gears either). Finally, in terms of ride, all of the leveling kits we’ve tested ride just fine.

I am considering putting a lift kit in my 08 tundra crewmax so that I could run 33″ tires. Have heard lots of negative things concerning the transmission not shifting properly with the new tires and with larger tires rubbing when fully turned. Would like to maintain the stock ride as best as possible (I am not a serious off roader). Do the gears need to be changed with the larger tires or does the Tundra have enough grunt to compensate?

Patrick - yes, the Toytec lift technically reduces travel. However, the reality is that few if any normal situations would result in you noticing it. If you use this vehicle as a true off-road machine, you should look at a coilover setup instead. The bumpstops are required on the Truxxx kit because the suspension is softer than the Toytec setup, so it’s more likely to hit the bump stops. Again, however, the chances of hitting the bumpstops with either kit are slim.

Does the toyotec take away from the amount of suspension travel? Also, is the fact that the truxxx kit provides bump-stop drops a significant advantage over the toyotec?
