the Pro rear coils are the same as stock, so the back isn't supposed to be any different/higher than the SR5, Trail, or Limited.

Spacer Kit
The easiest way is this:
Front Top Plate Spacer Kit
Or two of these:
Front Top Plate Spacer (One - 1/4")
The first will make it level to maybe a hair nose high depending on how much gas is in the tank.(this is just my opinion)
The second will make it a hair nose low. So a little rake to it. This is what I have.
Most have had no alignment problems and install isn't too bad at all for either. Ride is the same in my opinion. It just looks a little better.

Wonder if anyone has experimented with combination of spacers & adjusting to top notch on passenger side.

Several months ago a couple of guys said their Pros came with both sides on the top notch. They then claimed they added the two small spacers to each side and the truck was level side to side. I am still skeptical.

To my mind, exchanging spring perches is a better solution than spacers ..

That is interesting and I like that idea as well. A bit expensive. Do you have this installed on your 4Runner?
I'm no suspension genius. Does it replace the large clips that the springs are perched on and thus adding the inch?

No, I have Bilstein 6112's in the front, on a Trail Edition, which is the same shock in every way except valving. I hit the height I wanted with the 6112's, but I would have used those if the need had arisen.
And yes, it replaces the shorter perches that come on the Bilstein PRO shocks.
A nice way to attack the problem, IMHO ..

Those are essentially spacers and would have an effect on your ride. How much of an effect I have no idea. The other smaller top spacers go on top of the entire coilover assembly and won't preload the spring.

I'll be in this chat soon enough with much much joy. Treated myself and ordered a 2016 TRD PRO in white from my dealer. Hope late September or October for it! I feel this will be a real pleasure to drive after my 3rd Gen.

Any images of what the plugs look like on the car?
Congratulations! I am in the same boat and waiting for my magnetic gray 2016. Keep me posted if you receive any updates on the delivery date.
