Level the frame/running boards or level wheel wells

So, I am curious as to what most are concidering "level" on their 4th gens. My rear fender has 2" more space than the front which I believe is very close to original spec. My frame (attatched a magnetic level on it after I validated the ground was level) and running boards are dead nuts level. I have a 3" OME 885 spring up front with a Toytec RCCHD 2.5" in the rear.

When I've looked at pics where wheel wells appear to have same gap the rear end looks like it has the notorious 4Runner droop.

I think both look great, but are based on personal preference, however I was curious what most are doing.

I am just about level at wheel wells and it is driving me nuts. Going to order some Metal Tech LT rear springs to get rid of the azz down face up look.

I am ALMOST level with a little bit of forward rake, just enough to square things out. Perfect IMHO.
