Mine's a little different.....2015 TE with Toytec/OME lift and Cooper ST Maxx's. 7500 miles and I was offered $34,000 trade, buying a 2016 Tundra $1000 below invoice ($4300 off msrp).

I am running the OME FJ springs (2895E) in the back of my '15 TE to eliminate the rake with Toytec 600# springs in the front. Leveled stance, and gained about 2.5" in the front.

I am running 2883 front, 2895E in the rear, with 5100 shocks front and rear. The front is great, very minimal break dive and much less roll. The rear is pretty stiff unloaded. Add 150# in the rear and the ride is perfect. My rear spring rate is 260#, compared to a stock 150#. Your rear rate...

Sorry for the delay, PM reply sent.

I just purchased a 2014 Trail Premium (my 3rd 5th GEN) and plan to install a mild lift. I'm thinking about installing OME 2883 front and 2895E rear springs and utilize new TRD Bilstein struts / shocks that were included on the 2013 FJ Cruiser's with the factory Off-road package. I had a 2013...

Looks great! How is the noise of the DT's compared to the Slient Armorers?

How does the road noise of the Duratracks compare with the stock tires? I've

I'm in the Toledo metro area.

I have 4 Cooper AT3 tires P265/70/17 with less than 500 miles on them. I've decided to step up to a larger size. Tires have never seen dirt or trails. Anyone interested for $500?

I did not install the lift myself. A local shop did the install and alignment for $375. I did have steering wheel vibs when I installed P285/70/17 tires, but since switching back to the stock size, no issues at all. I did not install upper control arms and my camber is slightly out of spec...

I am running front and rear OME coils on stock strut/shocks and I am very happy with the lift height and ride. I acheived 3" lift in the front and about 2" in the rear, giving me a near level stance with increased spring rate in the rear if I need to add additional cargo. I am running the 2884...

Correct....returned the 285's and switched to 265's. Since I only have about 300 miles on my OME springs, I'm going to wait about a month to make sure they are done settling before I have it aligned again.

I decided to take the cheap and easy way out....I exchanged the 285's for 265's today and steering is perfect. I lost a little in ground clearance, but the 265's seem just fine for my lift and plans for the truck. Thanks to everyone who provided feedback.

Thanks for the great information!
