Bilstein 6112 owners

[arehman11]

I ordered the 6112/5160 combo and am looking to see if anyone has pictures of the .79 (2/1)or 1.14" (3/2) settings and stock rear. Debating on going with either that or ordering 1" rear dobinson springs and setting front to 1.85" (5/4), however keeping the stock 265/70/17 size Nitto G2's so not sure how bad it would look.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.

I can dig up some pics. I went 4/3 with factory rear before switching to 7/6 with rear springs. EDIT: here you go. tires were 265 KO2.

thanks! So that would be the 1.5" front lift setting?

that is correct!

that is correct!

Excellent! If you have any side profile shots with that setting, I'd love to see them. This actually works well for me as we have the exact same year, trim and color and I want to get black F5's at some point to replace the TRD Pro wheels I have now, but your previous post about rubbing has me worried.
thanks!

On a side not, did you have any rubbing issues with 265's and those wheels?

thanks!

I will look. With the wheels and those tires there was rubbing that required some trimming of the front inner fenderwell/bumper.

Little bit more than what you wanted but here's a 7/6 setting up front with stock rear springs.

thanks everyone. This has me re-thinking about going with the 4/3 setting.

Looks good, I can't quite tell, but would you say it still retains a very small amount of rake?

At 1.5" there is visual rake due to fender height, but the frame of the runner will have slight negative rake.

Yes,
Very comfortable ride too.
My FJ had an OME lift with 285's Did not want to go to a bigger tire with this.
I have had a load in the back and 4 people, no problems.
Very pleased with it.
