    Hey all how’s it going! I just got a 2007 4runner and wanted to know what size lift and tire and wheel size set up would you recommend for off roading? 4.5” lift with 18x9 wheels and 35’s good or 33’s with 16x9 would work with a 4” lift? Thanks in advance! Plus other than lift and tires what sort of other things should I be looking into? Hope y’all are being safe!

    You don’t need a lift or huge tires to offroad. Take it out on a trail and see what you need. Also, to fit the tires you’re describing you’ll need to do chopping, trimming and removing to fit.
    Anyways welcome to the forum.

    Welcome to the forum!

    @Antman is spot on! Decent stock size AT's might be all you need. Skids and armor are just as important as clearance in the rocks.
