The height will be ok with the kit you have. The stock wheels are 17x7.5 +30 offset. The tires are to wide for the set up on a Tacoma. I never suggest wheel spacers. If you are responsible and know they require maintenance you can make that call.
I would find a set of wheels you like. I suggest 17x8 with a 0 offset.
At this time you could also opt for 285/75/16’s and get 16x8.5 -6 offset. Both of those options are good.

I also suggest getting an alignment.
 
will either one of those options make the tires stick out any further. i would like for them to be out a little more than flush with the fender

The 285/75/16 16x8.5 -6 offset is going to stick out a little further from stock. 1.82387” to be exact.

The 285/70/17 on 17x8 O offset will be 1.584156” further out than stock.
