Looks good!
The front doesn't rub at all. The rubbing is on the front mud flap on the inside. Should go away once it's leveled.

looks great.
So what level are you going run the bilsteins at?
what are you planning on doing for the rear?

I'm up in the air at the moment... Ordered Bilstein 5100 all around, Camburg 1 inch rear spring and Camburg UCA. First thought, 2.5 in the front using the adjustable collar on the Bilsteins and pop in the Camburg spring to raise the rear 1 inch. Or shelve the rear spring and just raise the front 1 inch. Just waiting on the parts to arrive.

Cool - be sure to post up some pictures.
I just bought a 2011 4runner and want to get it lifted a couple of inches. There seems to be an overwhelming array of options to get this done...

I never understood the point of buying a new $40,000 vehicle then replacing the brand new suspension and brand new tires. Mind as well wait and buy used.
Looks good though.

The mud flaps on the 2014 have a lot of play in them, push them back towards the body mount and you will see. I just drilled a little hold and zipped tied it back to the body mount. You should be able to screw it tight to the body too. Will give you an extra 1/2 inch of clearance.

You don't see the point of improving performance AND looks??? OEM skinny highway tires are worthless off the pavement and stock suspension is way too mushy giving you a terrible nose dive each time you step on the brakes.
I picked them up from FN Wheels. Dustin is on point with customer service.

I beg to disagree on improving performance. Improving looks is purely subjective and to each their own. Improving performance is a give or take proposition. Sure, you don't like nose dive so you put a stiffer spring on the front. For you that's fine. For another guy then that's too stiff a ride. Even changing tires is giving up something. You get better performance but you give up on road efficiency. A vehicle is a compromise. Every single mod you do to it to improve performance in one area will decrease performance in other areas. Every single one. Now it just comes down to what you feel are acceptable limits lol. Want to know why people don't buy a vehicle that is perfect in every way to fit their needs? Simple. They can't afford it. You would easily spend $200K on a vehicle that had all the mods you want and not lose something somewhere else. Take tires for example: Let's say you wanted to put 285 Duratracs on there and not lose the 1-2 mpg that will invariably happen. How to fix it? Install a more efficient engine/transmission for $$$$. Want to add a better suspension that is great on and off road that will go for years with no maintenance like the OEM will? Unfortunately I don't think they exist so $$$$$$ for that mod. How about a cool front bumper that will be a battering ram off road that will offer the exact same crash protection for not only you but the vehicle or pedestrian you hit? $$$$$ because they don't exist either and would have to be highly engineered.
Bottom line, any performance mod you think you need will take away performance somewhere else. This is not really directed at you but anyone that wants to mod and hasn't thought about it.
Edit: Lighter forged wheels is one mod that will improve performance and not decrease performance somewhere else as long as they are rated for the same load. Maybe I will make this into a thread lol.
