I've had no problems with the wheels. Basically I want to just match what I have in terms of ride height and suspension lift.
I have looked at ordering the 6112's online and the circlip options one has to select when ordering the coil-overs are as follows:
#6 / #4 = 2.6"
#5 / #3 = 2.2"
#4 / #2 = 1.9"
#3 / #1 = 1.5"
Everything that I have found states that the original TRD-tuned Bilstein's provided 2.5 in lift in the front. So, I am assuming that I should select the 2.6" circlip location for the 6112's. I am looking for some community confirmation on this. What I am afraid of is selecting the 2.6" and then once I put them on my rig, the front end will sit too high compared to what it has been prior.
Can anyone provide some insight on which height selection for the 6112's is the best to match the original TRD tuned settings?
Thank you!

Hate to inform you, but you misread the shock diameter of the TRD Bilstein Pro set up for the height!
SEE:
Toyota 4Runner Trd pro bilstein shocks with trd-tuned front springs. Suspension kit - PTR1389160 - Genuine Toyota Accessory
The Diameter of the shocks up front are 2.5" and rears are 2".
The fronts on the TRD Bilstein Pro set up give it a 1" lift height.
The #4 / #2 = 1.9" will give you a slight rake and should be almost level when you load the T4R....
or you could do #5 / #3 = 2.2" and place a 1" spacer over the rear coils.
