Your rig looks awesome grant and I am going to send some pics. these guys think that I am so stupid and working at a tire factory does make me know about fitment. We have to know what trucks they will go on before we we by them. But hey Ive only been doing this for a short while...(yeah right). So look at some pics ans tell me what you think and then just call me stupid if thats what you want. But I thought this forum was supposed to be somewhere where toyota guys can come hang, shread some info, and tell stories about their rigs. Guess I was wrong.

Umm... yeah, those pics proved nothing. Let me know when you get some pics that you can actually see the tire and inner fender.
And for those who think that we are just "hateing on him", I could care less that he's running these tires. I have a problem with him claiming that they fit great. The fact that they rub at all when there is no suspension compressed, means that they do NOT fit well.

I love how he took the pix from the wrong side to show the if there was rubbing.
But here's an idea to bring value to this thread ... 33x10.50 is a GREAT size tire for lighter weight vehicles like compact trucks and Jeeps. How about Pitbull start making tires in that size? Everyone knows there is very little competition, very few models available in that size...

it looks like he has a bit of torsion crank in the front, which...helps a little bit
i have 1.5 or so of lift with shackles and torsion bars, with 33x10.5/15s on 7.5 inch wide tacoma rims.
the tires do not rub on the street but in severe tweaked off roading they do hit the front inner fenderwell lip [the plastic is removed] nothing a hammer didnt fix.
i imagine the 13.5s rub quite a a bit in any sort of flexing, but if he doesnt mind tearing up the innner fender wells and tread blocks then more power to him.
i was going to go with 12.5s but i decided on the 10.5s to play it safe. i'm sure i would have gotten away with it but i'd rather keep the rubbing to a minimum.
personally i wouldnt have gone with 13.5s but thats just me, i like narrow tires

Anyways, I am a big fan of big tires and little lift. Just do some cutting an those probably wont rub (maybe wheel spacers too).

This makes you sound like a pirate4x4 reject. Seriously if you can't take some criticism (especially from people on the internet) you will never make it in the real world efficiently.

and perhaps shackles in the rear and heavy duty torsion bars, your stock ones must be having a stroke.
anyways
as long as you're not afraid of fender trimming and rubbing i dont see a problem with it.
i personally wouldnt have gone wider then 12.5s tho
please post some bigger, daylight pics when u have the chance

Im not one to criticize, since my rig aint anything to write home about, but those pics proving they fit are like a shadowy, grainy picture on a dating site with the caption, " i know it's kinda bad lighting, but really, I'm hot!"
