After reading countless threads and spending WAY too much time on here reading about lift spacers, wheel spacers and all the other ways to get bigger tires on this thing. I decided I might opt for the least expensive and quickest way to make my truck look nicer, I tried to order a Cornfed 3/2 and spidertrax spacers but ( in hind sight I am glad ) there was a wait to get them to me. SO I sat back and rethought my priorities, maybe I should take the advice I hear from many people who add the spacers? Some of them knew they would eventually upgrade to a suspension lift and new wheels, they liked the look w/ spacers but wanted a true performance upgrade.
I decided to wait it out and go all out when I did mine. Suspension lift was the way to go, I wanted to get rid of the soft ride of the SR5...too much body roll and generally a "mushy" feel. I wanted a firmer and more sporty ride. I shopped for lift kits, and was torn between the OME and Toytec Ultimate, I decided to go for the Toytec after all of the good write ups and reading how a few people wished they had Toytec over the OMEs.
BFGs were the tire of choice for me, I have owned 4 sets....although I did at least consider Nittos, GYSA, Revos and many others.
Enough talk, heres what I wound up getting.
-Toytec Ultimate lift kit, w/ Rear Icon shocks
-Pro Comp Extreme Cast Black 7105s
-BFG ATs 275/70/17
Here is the truck after the lift, but with the old "meat" and wheels.
