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

Moved to Colorado 2 weeks ago and finally got around to installing the lift, tires and wheels on my 06 Limited.

Lift:
ICON Ext Travel Coilovers
Total Chaos UCAs
ICON 2.0 Shocks
ICON 2" Rear Springs

Tires:
GY Duratracs 285/70/17

Wheels:
SCS Ray10

Had to do some body mount choppage and fender liner cutting/removal to stop the rub. One of these days I'll create build/adventure thread for now enjoy these pics.

We have similar rigs and dogs! Haha I have a 7 month old female Rotti pup.
 
Hey saw you have the courser mxt. How are they holding up? Are they wearing quickly?

I can't compare to other brands of mud tires, but they have held up extremely well so far. Granted, they barely have 3,000 miles on them, but I'd say they aren't wearing quickly at all

If you need AT tires on the inexpensive I would recommend checking these out. Really good reviews across the web. Made in Findlay, Ohio at the Cooper facility, :usa2: :usa2: . Great on road so far. Checking their off-road capabilities soon.

I might switch to a 1/2" to 1"shorter lift on the front if this does not settle. The height measurements are almost equal across all 4 corners and it just looks a little too much for my 80% daily driving.

Sorry, tapatalk isn't letting me know about "quotes" and such...

I did the lift a couple of months ago but just now settled on wheel/tire...

Removed XREAS, installed 2014 Tacoma TRD complete front coil/spring + Toytec 3/8" spacer and 2014 Tacoma TRD rear shock (w/ energy bushing) + Daystar 1.5" rear spacer, keeping factory springs.

I netted a hair under 2.5" in the front and standard 1.5" in the rear for a damn near level sit.

The only rub I have since adding the tires is at full turn.



 
Here is my 4Runner, I just purchased Bilstein 5100 shocks and Moog FJ springs for front and rear. Front raised up 3 inches, rear raised 2 inches. Here is how she looks.

Looks good! How does it ride compared to the XREAS?
It's a little more stiff, but I definitely like it, absorbs a lot better with bumps, haven't taken it off-road yet

Which setting are you at on the front? Getting ready to do mine with the same components this weekend. Thanks
I set the fronts at 1.75 setting, here is the write up that I went by
