New to Lifts, Need Mod Help!!!
I'm about to get a 2001 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner and I have alot of things in mind that I want to do my new Toy. I'm very new to the off-road scene. The main thing I want for my truck is the off-road look. Here is the combo I'm looking to go with. Any better ideas or suggestions you can think of are greatly appreciated.
Wheels/tires
265/70R16 BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A KO's with Ivan Stewert TRD Rims (16x8)
($1349.00) Are these 31's, 32's????
Lifts and Suspension
Full 2.5" Kit ($140.00) Procomp lift from toytech
With this setup I'm going for a classy looking truck. Nothing too big but a visual difference from the stock look. Any better combos??? How are these tires compared to others??? Am I paying too much???

Do you just want the off-road look or do you also want off-road performance? If you want off-road performance, look into a 4X4.
Sounds like a decent pricing for the wheel and tire combo. Although I am not definite, 265s are leaning towards 32". I'm sure someone can shine in with their expertise answer.

if you want a mild lift with very little offroading, i recommend the 2.5-3" cornfed spacer lift up front. Pair it up with a 1-1.5" lift shackle or add-a-leaf for the rear with bilstein 5100 shocks.
265/75/16's are closer to 32"s, again if you want the aggressive look, mud terrains will do the job.
For the wheels; everyone has their preference but i think black wheels looks aggressive.

I'm really only going for the off-road look. The only off-roading is driving a road off the highway for me :-) That's why I'm looking into the Prerunner, I'd rather a have 4x2.

PITA??? Also, the wheels and rims come mounted and balanced.

From what I have read the Ivan stewert TRD rims are a PITA to balance!
