Aloha! I took delivery of a Darrell Waltrip edition 2006 4door Tundra. I'd really like to keep the stock look of the truck by using the TRD rims that are on the truck now without using wheel spacers, and gain a few inches of ground clearance with a small suspension upgrade. Right now, the truck appears to have the stock tires still on the rims (275 55 18).
I'll probably be upgrading the suspension with Bilstein 5100s on all 4 corners and a pair of wheelers aal outback (front set at 2.5" of lift).
The TRD (BBS) rims are 18X9, with a 10 offset - by my calculations, it's roughly a 5.5 bs. If I go with a 275 65 18 tire (Nitto Terra Grappler), will I run into control arm issues? These tires have the same width as stock, just a couple inches taller.
I tried to search for info on UCA clearance and could not really find what I was looking for. How much clearance do aftermarket UCA create? Enough to run a 285 tire without wheel spacers? I'm thinking of 285 65 18 Nitto Trail Grapplers.
Lastly, will a longer rear brakeline be necessary with the Bilsteins and AAL? I know the Billys are slightly longer than stock, thus enabling more droop.
Pictures to follow... after the truck gets a bath.
Mahalo in advance!
