How do you like your spacers? Looks good. Any different driving qualities? I.e.; stability, cornering, etc.

I like the more aggressive stance, feels more stable at speed and in turns. Pretty much eliminate the wandering on the highway and when in a high crosswind. Brought a shimmy to the steering and tires from 50-60mph, threw off the alignment and started wearing the tires funny. I removed them and sold them in under two months. I have aftermarket wheels and tires coming now.

275/70/17 E-load AT3 LT's. The spare fits. Quiet so far, a TAD more sluggish off the line compared to the BFG AT's I replaced, or that could also be in my head.
Suspension is a TRD Pro take off.
Good off road in the limited time I've had them off road (in the sierras, wet and dry).
Digging them so far.

No removal of the mud flaps, no rubbing at full articulation or frame cutting required. 275 BFG KO2’s.

Thanks... So your total lift compared to a SR5, Trail or limited is 2.5 front and 1 in the rear?

Looks really good, but based on your approach to lift- isn't your rear .5 inches shorter than the front.

The vehicle naturally has a rake with the rear sitting 1-1.5" higher than the front. Even with the 1/2"differential out back, the rear still sits 1" or more higher than the front. The fronts also settle more due to the weight of the motor. It doesn't take much weight inside or up top for these trucks to sag in the rear. No extra height/lift can account for that, only a heavier rate spring can make up for it.

I had the Coopers in a load class C. Went to get them again and didn't like that they only come in E now, so I went with Falken Wildpeaks in a C. Too new to really comment on the Falkens, other than they seem much quieter than I remember the Coopers being when I got them.

How are you liking the Wildpeaks a month in? I'm strongly considering these as most 275 are E load and just can't see running E load on a 4R. However, the 275/70R17 Wildpeaks outweigh many 275 tires in the E load range. Have you experienced any sluggishness compared to the Coopers?

Interested in this as well. I worry about going with too heavy of a tire.

I'm planning on installing Falken Wildpeaks tomorrow but am surprised to see posts about them rubbing, I thought they were supposed to fit without issues.
Is the rubbing just from people running spacers or non-stick offset wheels?

No rubbing on the Pro models as they sit 1” higher up front and have the fender liner mod done at the port compared to all the other 4Runners. Also, the Pro wheel is 17 x 7 and the Off Road is 17 x 7.5. I think the biggest issue for those that rub is the fender liner.

higher shouldn't make a difference, everything still travels through the same arc. i wouldn't think a narrower wheel would make a difference considering the tires are the same.
it's marked green on the going bigger table so i thought i was good, guess i'll just plan on checking if i need to push the fender liner in
