3 inch lift with stock tires pics?

[02_SE_Runner]

As the title kindly states, do any of you have pictures of your 4runner (preferably 01 or 02) with a 3" lift with some stock tires? I am trying to see if it would look goofy if I were to do my suspension before I did tires.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the pics guys!

Would you say that it looks goofy? Or is it ok enough to drive?

2001 SR5, 3" front (Eibach & Taco Billies), ~4"rear (8 wrap LCs).
It looks fine temporarily, IMO. Heck I've had it this way for like 2 months as a DD now and its does ok on trails too. And this way you won't be limited to 265/75 or smaller tires if you want to go bigger when you upgrade. So yeah its ok to drive!

I don't think it looks bad but it feels skinny. Working on refinishing my tundra wheels so I can get new tires but will probably throw some 1.5" Spacers on first to see what it's like.

I've driven mine lifted with stock tires since may, and it might look a little goofy, but it's not bad. I think what was worse in my case was the sliders sticking out way farther than the tires. That's been solved with some spacers and 285's

Definitely worth delaying the financial blow of the lift and tires on the same credit card statement

This. I think with a lifted rig on the stock tires it emphasizes the narrowness of the wheels. You should also ask to see if someone has any photos with a lift and stock wheels and tires with spacers for comparison.

Tread design also plays a big role. If you have a more aggressive tread pattern and sidewall, that will offset the overall size on a visual level.

Here is what mine looked like with a 3.5" lift in front and 5" in back.

 

[BrianSD_42]

SS 1.2 lift. 2.5" front, 3.5" rear

Tires 265x75x16 .... ~ 31.5" tire

Pics inside link below. Sorry but I'm on my phone so I can't link easily.

Little more than 3, but with 275/65/16. Tires look a little small. Going to bump up to 285s for the street, maybe 35s for the trail.

Couple flex pics....

I'd love to get to this height. I presented this idea to my local off-road guy and he said if I wanted to add a body lift to the bill stein shocks, I'd have to adjust the steering rack, bumper, and a whole host of other things in order to do a body lift right. Did you have the same experience?

Here you go.

Almost stock tires and ~3" lift. (265/75/16) + 1 size from 265/70/16.

Sonoran Steel 1.2 rear lift with King 2.5 coilovers up front.

Stock wheels and tires from a 5th gen so pretty close to stock.

Here's my 4runner with a 3" lift and stock tires. In my opinion, it looks a little goofy when looked at it square on from the side. But, from most other angles the stock tires look fine. Of course though, bigger tires will transform a build. In the end I opted for 33" Toyo Open Country ATll

Nice setup!
