bigger tires and lift



Hi all,



I'm looking to get bigger tires (285/75/R16) on my 06 Tundra. I drive this truck on the beach 7 months out of the year.



I'm looking for recommendations on tires and what type of lift I need to perform to get the result I need, i.e. what type of lift (body/suspension)?



I don't want cheap, but I cannot go crazy either. I'm not rock climbing here, just driving on very soft sand. I'm a total novice here, and could really use some good advice on which kits and tires to purchase.



I appreciate the help.



Matt

Looks good. I ended up going with the Bilstien 5100's and Mickey Thompson's Baja ATZ 285/75/R16. I'm just waiting for the shocks to arrive and hopefully they'll be on by next week. I'll send before/after pics when I'm done.

Nice wheels. What brand / kind of rim do you have?

Stock rims . . . someday I'll get custom rims. Performance first, cosmetics second. Next project is horsepower and exhaust.
