ToyTec Boss Coilover vs TRD Bilstein

I called wheelers today and they could build me the tundra trd coils on 5 way adjustable bilsteins with the isolator and top hat for $712 a pair.
I like the idea of oem parts above all.

Or the ToyTec boss coilovers for $810.

I want good ride quality combined with the body roll control when hitting a bump off road.

A want to do 2" of lift on pre-assembled coilovers in the front.
99 talls, 10mm spacer, and bilsteins shocks in the rear.
I preassembled struts for easy of installation on my part as well

Pretty sure the new Bilstein 6120 (I don't know if I got the number right) coilovers for the 4runner are in that price range too. You'd have to search.

I think that anytime you run a tundra specific shock on this truck, without a heavy front bumper, the ride quality isn't going to be as good as something that's valved for the 4runner because of the lighter weight.

I have never owned the Toytec coilovers so I cant personally comment on their performance but I have owned a few different Tundra Bilstein setups over the years.
I would say if its only a 100 dollar difference, I would definitely go with the toytec simply for ease of adjustability.
But as huvgti said the new Bilstein 6120's would probably be the best choice in that price range.

Just so you know you can piece together the Tundra bilstein setup for much less than 712, and assembling the coilovers really isnt that bad.
