4.88 gears would be a nice upgrade but folks have run stock gearing with 33s, YMMV:

I suppose I could search for hours on end and possibly piece together the answer to my question, but I chose to go the lazy route and just ask altogether. I have a 95 4x4 ext cab. I am purchasing a set of 2008 Tacoma 16x7 inch factory aluminum wheels to replace my 15x7 steelies. I plan to buy 265/75/16s from treadwright. I will be lifting my truck about 1.5" prior to this install. Am I going to need wheel spacers due to the difference in backspacing or will I be okay? Thanks for accomodating my late night laziness.
That means your tires will be sunk in further into the wheel wells & will rub the control arms & body! 1.25" spacers should solve the issue though, just be warned; they're not cheap!
I was considering tacoma alloy sport wheels for my runner but I came across that ^ information so i turned them down. It was a good deal though $100 for new takeoffs.

33s are a good choice for size, and youll want to think about re gearing.

Ive seen a 2011 with 265/65r18's and 18x9's with a 4.5" backspacing. Didnt look all that bad, they were a street tire, woulda looked better a little more aggresive. He works with me, might be able to snap a shot if it for you

So I can't seem to find the info I'm looking for. I'm trying to see if I can squeeze 285/75-16's under a 99 Toyota 4runner highlander. Right now I'm currently running 265/75-16 hancook dyno pro's on xd hoss wheels 16-8 with 4 inch back space. I have tons of room under here and are about 2 inches away from control arms. I don't mind doing some trimming and minor banging. Just want to see what everyone think? Just want to ask around before hand. Thanks.

I've got a 2wd 1994 pickup and I was hoping to swap the wheels and tires for some 235/70/R16 off of a ford ranger. They are the correct lug pattern, I just don't know if they will fit my wheel wells and fit over the hubs properly. Anybody know?
