3” Lift Kit Built for the Tacoma Owner Who Wants the Right Stance the First Time.
Give your 4th Gen Tacoma the aggressive, trail-ready profile it should have had from the factory — with precision-machined billet components, straightforward bolt-on installation, and tire fitment guidance that takes the guesswork out of your build.
The new Tacoma can clear more tire than previous generations, but the best results still come from pairing lift height, wheel width, offset, and tire size correctly. This page is designed to help customers choose a setup that looks right, drives right, and avoids expensive trial-and-error.
Best use case
For Tacoma owners who want the bold look of a 3” lift, more ground clearance, and a clean path toward 34–35” tires without replacing the entire suspension system.
Use this as the customer-facing guide. Tire brand, true measured diameter, alignment, wheel width, and offset can all change final clearance, so this should be positioned as confident guidance — not a universal guarantee.
| Setup | Best Tire Size | Wheel / Offset Sweet Spot | Trimming Expectation | Customer Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
TORQ 3” Lift Kit Most aggressive |
35x12.50R17 or 315/70R17 Also strong: 285/75R17 |
17x8 to 17x8.5 +12mm to +25mm is the clean target range |
Expect possible minor plastic trimming / mud flap work depending on tire and stance. More aggressive offsets increase trimming. | Best “big tire” build. Ideal for customers who want the premium 35” look with a more usable offset instead of pushing the wheel too far out. |
|
TORQ 2” Front Level Daily driver sweet spot |
285/75R17, 285/70R17, or equivalent 33–34” tires | 17x8 to 17x8.5 +25mm to +35mm preferred for easy clearance |
Usually minimal, but aggressive tire shoulders or low offset wheels can require plastic trimming. | Best balanced setup. Clean stance, practical tire size, and fewer clearance headaches. |
|
TORQ TRD Pro 2” Kit TRD Pro specific |
33–34” tire range depending on wheel and use | Keep offset conservative: +25mm to +35mm for cleaner fitment | TRD Pro factory suspension and trim differences should be treated separately from non-Pro models. | Best for TRD Pro owners who want to level the stance and increase tire clearance without compromising the factory Fox-shock character. |
Precision billet construction
Machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum for strength, consistency, and a finished look that matches the quality of a high-end Tacoma build.
Factory ride focus
Designed to lift and level without turning the truck into a harsh, overbuilt suspension project. Great for daily driving, towing light adventure gear, and weekend trails.

Can I run 35s on a 2024+ Tacoma with this kit?
Yes, 35s are a realistic target with the 3” kit when paired with the right wheel width and offset. Expect that tire brand, alignment, and wheel offset may still require minor plastic trimming.
What offset should I recommend for 35s?
For a customer-friendly setup, recommend +12mm to +25mm on a 17x8 to 17x8.5 wheel. More negative offset looks aggressive but generally increases rubbing and trimming.
Is 285/75R17 a safer choice than 35x12.50?
Yes. 285/75R17 gives a tall tire look with less width, which often makes it easier to clear than a full 35x12.50.
Will this change factory ride quality?
The kit is designed to maintain the factory ride character because it works with the stock suspension rather than replacing shocks and springs.
