Lift and Tire Central (pics)... Post 'em Up!

255/80/17 Coopers went on this morning. So far so good. Love how they look... definitely a good bit taller than the 265/70/17 Terra Grapplers, and more aggressive. So far they're quiet and smooth. Should get to test them in the snow next week!

Looks good, the picture has really good lighting. Wish mine was that shiny.
4Runner looks awesome.
 
Question for Stock Tire Size

Hello All,

I'm sorry if this is the wrong thread but since this is a tire size question it seems like the best bet.

I'm curious what the stock spare tire size is on the 04 Sport 4wd 4Runner.
I have the 17" rims but since i haven't had the car since it was made i wanted to double check what the stock spare size was.

Thanks,
Shaun

The spares are full size. So stock would be 265/65R17 IIRC. Hope that helps.
 
Decided to change up my suspension (again) and removed the spacer lift and having cranked up Bilstein's, also removed stock uca's, all-pro's adjustable front endlinks,front sway bar, inner and outer tie rods, stock spindles(knuckles), stock brake lines, and removed dust shields etc..So these are Pics of my New set up....New 4" Lift Spindles, Bilsteins at "0", New FJ Trd Coils, New strut mounts,New eBay UCA's, New OEM in/out tie rods, New extended SS braided brake lines (all around), and with the new 2.5" extra lift I gained on top of the 3" I already had I decided it only be right to go up in tire size from 265/75/16 to 285/75/16 being that I now have 5.5" to 5.75" suspension lift and from center of rim to wheel well is 25.5 and from floor to wheel well is roughly 41.5". With having almost a complete new front end it is like night and day I can actually feel my Bilsteins ride comfort now that inhave down travel Intead of stiff and rigged from bring cranked all the way up as my means of lift. and the new height allows for good views of skirts and thighs..lol. nah, but for real It was a lot of work took me an entire week of working on it after getting home from work each day it became tiring and there was a lot of talking/cussing to myself and my tools along with many wtf blow up moments throughout the project but I am super stoked on it, would do it again without doubt and couldn't be happier, well long travel coil overs could!! Which I'm soon to acquire in the near future.
And yes my driveway is on a slope. but there is 1" difference from the front to rear suspension

I love those wheels! Quick questions, are you running stock UCA's? If so do the 285's on those wheels clear the stock UCA's? Do you get any major rubbing anywhere else?

Thanks man


They do not run on the upper control I have about a 1&1/2 inch of clearance from them.
It will rub on the front bottom plastic piece that bulges downward.
These wheels are eagle alloys 012 in not sure if they're made any more. But mine will be for sale soon
 
Are you satisfied with this? Why is the front so much higher than the rear? It looks awful. Especially that front shot - it looks like your front wheels could snap off.

I think it's mostly an optical illusion. The driveway slopes off hard behind the front door.

Very satisfied, first of all my driveway is on a slant its sitting on half flat and down slope and it hadn't been aligned yet in photo, the tires in the front are 285's the tires in the rear are 265's if you couldn't tell and still haven't installed my new 2" springs in the rear along with 285's. And even when I'm done I'm still gonna have the front a lil higher than the back cause I like it better than a stink bug stance and I like too haul ass through the desert.
If you ever done it or into it you'll know why then.
And I'm not a "bro" neither.

I edited the first photo so you know what all was done right before taking the pics, my bad.
