I just trimmed my valance tonight. I left the center part to cover the radiator and cut off the ends, which are usually the part that's banged up the most.
I might make one of these as a replacement tho: http://www.duffcoenterprises.com/ima...05toyfront.jpg

I had 12.50's and switched to 10.50's . I did the swap for these reasons:
Lighter, Cheaper, Less drag on the road.
Things I miss:
Wider footrpint in the sand, Wider look on the truck
Overall, I wouldn't switch back. I air down when I hit the sand now, soon I will have long travel which will push my tires out 3 inches (enough to make up for the 1 inch lost in track width. Honestly I think my poor 4 banger is happier not having to face all of that rolling resistance. And with the money I save, I bought a taco. Really money isn't that different.

Help with a lift
I've been looking through the forums and trying to find as much info as I can, but I have a question. I'm looking to put 33's on my '90 toyota extended cab, sr5, but I don't know how big of a lift to go with. I want it to be high enough so that I don't have any rub, but not too high. I can't really afford a suspension lift for my IFS, so I'm looking at a body lift. Should I go with a 3" lift or just a 2" ?
Any help would be appreciated.

I will say 2" of lift, you can run 33x10.50 on a 89/90-95...
I have BJ Spacers, OME Coils, not rubbing issues with the 33s on stock rims.

33x10.50x15 will fit on a stock 15x7 rim. As far as I know, no one makes a 33x10.50x16.
