Just ordered 2021 Nightshade. It will be here in September. I’m trading in my 2021 Ram TRX—o realized that I drive like a grandpa and I don’t take it off road. Also, the thing drinkssss the gas—$100 every 4 days. I’m in the car business, so it’s easy for me to trade cars-I bought the TRX for invoice. Anyways, I went with nightshade because I didn’t need the off-road capabilities of the Pro. However, I hate “20 wheels. I replaced my stock TRX wheels with fatter tires and rhino wheels. Thinking 2/1 lift with 35” tires and 17” wheels? Anyone on here have that set up. MT toyos are my go to;

Imagine some 22” TRD replicas with a 33x12.50R22 BFG A/T.
Actual diameter is 32.5”, width is true. Wheel backspacing is +25mm.
Could this fit with 2” front / 1” rear Cornfed spacers?

Something looks a little funny about the way those are made… compare to these

So my guy at Toyota is telling me that the Nightshade can't have spacers and that a life would be abut 4k because; you have to remove the XREAS suspension (required when doing lift to Limited's). Was this the case for you? How much did the cornfed lift cost?

I have always heard horrible things about wheel spacers, no matter what the vehicle. I like how tight my wheels and tires are in on my truck so I'm happy.
As far as I am aware you don't have to mess with the XREAS deal with the Cornfed spacers. My truck rides 95% as it did before the lift so not sure.
The Confed dudes are super helpful, go talk to them as see what they say..

Yes heard the same of Cornfed for the Limiteds.
I understand it is popular for owners to want a squared off look, I also don’t want my 4Runner to look like a bread truck with the wheels tucked in so far.

Does your Nightshade have the Automated Power Boards?
If not, does the lift make it difficult to get into the truck?

My truck doesn't have any running boards. I'm just under 6" tall so its not that big of a deal to get in and out of the truck with its current lift.

I don’t you can get the automatic running boards on the us version because of the side skirts if I’m correct.

Thanks OP. This tread has been extremely useful. I've ordered 2/1 cornfed and still researching which tires to go with. How did you decide on the nitto?
****UPDATE****
Got the kit. Just FYI, it's plastic, not a good first impression

how is the overall ride with the cornfed spacers? I have looked at them and the ICON spacer lift for the front of my wifes 2021 night shade. any reason you went with cornfed?
Great looking truck! I'm going with the same setup, but with Toyo Open Country AT III. Hoping to have the same results, with no issues!
I installed the Cornfed kit yesterday and 275/55/20 Toyo Open Country AT. No rubbing and no issues. Actually feels more stable with the larger tires.

2/1” cornfed - Toyo
Finally at the shop today. There’s a drastic shortage on the more popular AT tires. Also, it seems like a lot of places and people don’t want to install the spacers.
Went with 2/1” and 275/55/20 Toyo AT3. Basically the same as the one posted above.

I've driven a few hundres miles now, including in some heavy rain, and I'm very happy with this setup and the tires. I'm sure you'll be happy with the results as well!

2/1" Cornfed + 275/55/20 Toyo AT3
4Runner — Freeimage.host
Finally completed. I love the way it looks. As far as noise from the toyo AT vs stock geolander, its almost no difference at all. I have not been on the highway yet so I can update that. The cornfed 2/1" makes all the bumps feel like absolute @$$. You can feel everything and hear everything. This isn't blasting cornfed product but more so the nature of the beast. We probably all got the nightshade/limited for the comfort portion rather than the pure offroading.
I took the chance on spacers cuz this was brand new car and I didnt want to go the icon route just yet. Mixed feeling right now. I guess it's true what they say, buy once cry once.
