I just put Cornfed 1” spacers in the front. Chosen specifically because it’s top mounted and you aren’t compressing the shocks to do it. Plus didn’t want to screw up geometry too much. Looks 100% better. Feels better driving and sitting in it as it doesn’t feel like you are falling forward all...

1” Cornfed spacers in front to level KMC Bully OL wheels Toyo Open Countries

2022 with like 1200 miles and noticed the wandering. But it's not all that bad. It's literally getting new wheels and tires put on right now so we'll see how that changes things. Brakes seem good to me. I've had or driven cars with way grabbier brakes so I like these. Nose dives but that's...

Yea I think that’s the price you pay going level. At least with stock suspension. Maybe with Bilstein 5100s it wouldn’t be as bad but I really like the stock suspension. I have nothing to compare it to though so might be an ignorance is bliss situation. I even thought about just getting 1/4”...

I have some 1” spacers coming and a shop installing them with 17x8.5” 0 offset wheels and Toyo Open Countries in 265/70. Will be subtle but between the level and kicking the tires out a little bit from the stock +15 offset wheels I think it’ll be a good look.

I've been all over the map with what I'm going to do to my 22 TRD. Ya'll have been very helpful though so thank you. Skipping over a bunch of stuff, I think I'm going to put a Cornfed 1" spacer on the front to level it out to start and see how things go. It's probably really a .5" spacer to...

Went to the big local offroad shop today to get set up with a lift, tires and wheels. Went in thinking Bilstein 5100s. The Toyota guy there was like on a brand new 22 like that don't do it. Just do the Readylift 3"/2" lift. We do them all the time and they work perfect. So the plan is that with...

Dang. That’s a great explanation. I did not know this. Thank you.

Thanks for posting this. This is exactly what I want. I’m sold on the 5100s and probably C rated KO2s.

Lol thanks. Kind of an inside joke.

I can do 5100s no problem. I just didn't know what was preferred between preloading the front 5100s to get a .5-1" lift or by just doing spacers.

I saw it mentioned here that someone said strut spacers are dangerous. I have a new 22 TRD OR and am happy with it other than the aggressive rake. I think I'd be happy just putting .250" spacers on the front struts for a .5" lift and some KO2s in 265/70/17 to keep it as minimal as possible...

Exactly. You could do the entire car in 80% ceramic which is clear and it'll cut out all the UV rays and provide a lot of protection even if you didn't want to tint a vehicle. 2 things I always do now to whatever vehicle I have. Ceramic and Weathertech.

I meant 5% on the sides and back. They showed me a car at the shop with a 30% tint on the windshield but the guy was like yea don't do that. That's too much. You have to consider that the factory windshield is like 70 or 72%. So by doing a 50 or something you really aren't doing all that much...

That looks great. Black is my favorite color. I just hate the maintenance of it.
