Tire size for 3" lift

Hi everyone, new here. So I added a 3" toytech lift on my 96 tacoma and currently have 31x10.5 AT's. I was wondering if 33x12.5 AT's would rub. After adding the lift I got a increase of about 3.25" increase in the front and 2.5" in the rear.

Probably a tight fit w/ 12.50s, might be able to get a 10.50 in there:

So I was looking at it closer and it seems 33x10.5 is the way to. The tire is also very close to the upper control arm. I think my back spacing is 4" Don't know for exact, didn't measure them.. May have to go less. Might try that 1" block method that 4crawler posted. Ill try get some pics up soon too. Thanks for all the help.

I was going to say you can easy fit 33X10.50 in there, although you may still get a little rub at full lock or full compression, and almost certainly when your at both, but the 12.50's are a very big tire, epsecially on a stock BS wheel. to close to the UCA's. Keep us updated.

So how bad is it if it rubs on the frame at full lock? I mean I know you don't want any places rubbing but with it only rubbing at full lock which is not that often. Is it bad on the frame?
