285's on a 2/1.5 spacer lift picture

I posted a pic of my 2010 SR5 about a month ago to show everyone on this forum a nice, subtle lift. Since then, I have upgraded my tires to the 285/70/17 Nitto Terra Grapplers. This set up is EXACTLY what I was looking for - meaner looking, but not over the top since I still use this for my work vehicle. Works great for mild offroading = beach...mountain trails...etc. Anyway, I had only minimal rubbing on the front fender (barely hear it)...nothing on the rear. So, I just unscrewed the two bottom screws that hold in the fender...pushed it forward...and tightened the screws. Problem solved! So here is a picture for you all - I am sure there are plenty interested in this setup and this could help. I couldnt find any solid pics when I was researching myself. Eventually I will upgrade to adjustable shocks down the road, but for now - the toytec spacers do the job and the handling still feels great...slightly stiffer ride, but barely noticeable. The price was right too - only $180 for the 4 spacers and simple install for any shop (or yourself if you know the ropes). Hope this helps!

This is exactly what I want to do. Thanks for the post. Did you install yourself or have a shop do it? if so, what did the shop charge you?

could you shoot a pic from the front? I am interested to see the wider stance, if any.
 
I will get more pics tomorrow...does have a wider stance. I had my shop install it - $350 for the install and they aligned, etc.
 
Here are several more pictures...even though it looks better in person!

Looking good Ted. Now you got me thinking more about the 2/1.5 now over the 3/2. I have my 285's on order right now.

I really like your runners stance. Good work!
 
Ted, where in Va? I'm in Aldie/South Riding, and I'd like to take a look in person (if you don't mind). It will give me a better idea of what I want to do with mine.
 
If you get a chance, grab a couple picture parked next to a stockie.

Would love to see exactly how difference the stance is. Love the look man. This is on my Christmas wish list. :)
 
tedstryker,
How are the spacers and lift kit working out? any problems or issues. I want to pull the trigger on this same gear you have. still riding smooth?
 
Those pics are with the spidertrax 1.25" spacers?
Forgive the dumb question, why do people run the spidertrax? would the tires rub without?

Truck looks real nice!!!!!!
