If anyone is running a 2" lift and either 29" or 30" tires, I would really appreciate some pics

Cheers :D

Trying not to go off topic
But why lift if running stock tyres
You'll gain no clearance where it's needed

It's only an inch, but I know what you mean. Since building the ute up I've gone from doing a fair bit of 4x4, to more heavy towing, so I think I would benefit more from running standard ratios than the extra clearance

I do agree, hence why lift, yes upgrade the suspenshion to suit your needs
But spend it where it will save you
My 09 sr5 use to pull a tri axel trailer with 4-4400l (55-5800kg gross) of salt water 10-15% of its entire life
Stock ratio and tyre size but modified rear springs, car sat flat no sag with 250-270kg ball weight

You can fit around 30in tyres but you need to check you local regulations to see if this is legal. Here is an example:

And what about max tyre width?
I'll check TAS regs and also that's a great thread, foundry_man had gone a bit hush though :(

7 to 8in wide rims is pretty standard for 265 width tyres.

Excellent,

if I'm upgrading from my stock 15" x 6" rims to a 7" or 8" will I need to upgrade the rims with a different offset to the stock? These are the stamps on my current stock rims:

I'm unfamiliar with the stamping, what is the stock offset on these rims?

in addition wheel size.com says the following:

ET45 = 45mm possitive offset?
