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

I have a wheel question

Ive researched these wheels and found info on similar wheels but not exact. I thought these came in the 2004 tundras, and im trying to figure out if they will fit my 2005 4runner; by fit i mean offset. Any help is appreciated. I attached a pic of the wheel, it is a 20" and has the 6x5.5 pattern.

Toyo Open Country tires

I would be a bad person to ask. My 4runner isn't my everyday drive, I live in southern california where it never rains and I drive extremely slow when on the streets. I got the 10 ply and my only complain about them is that they are extremely stiff tires. My next set of tires will definitely be 3 or 4 ply.

How do your Toyo's grip in the rain? I have them too and love the look of the tread design, but they are a bit slippery on wet concrete freeway entrance and exit ramps. They tend to push
if hitting the curves in a ramp faster than 30 mph. They also hydroplane pretty badly in heavy rain.

What is your experience with them?

Thanks,
Rick

a little before and after. the rear end still is sitting up quite a bit higher than the front end though. wish it would have leveled out a little more.

I've only had the toyo tires for a few weeks and I got them because they came with high recommendations from the owner of the tire store ice drawn them on slippery roads and through mud and dirt and I don't notice any slipping more than the street tires that were on the 4runner when I got it, I never had any a/Ts before so I don't think I would know the diffrence, sorry

Is this a 3 in lift? I put a rough country 3in lift on mine and it turned out the same way and when I got 285/70/17s it scrubbed because of my rims so I stuffed another 1in block in on top of the 3 in block and it leveled out perfectly, hope this helps

Yeah 3" ultimate with bilstein coilovers and toytec super flex springs with the boss shocks in rear. Might have to add a spacer to front. I went with 275/70/17's so tires are all good. May just live with it for now.

Nice, I just installed my Toytec Boss lift last weekend. Planing to get some 275/70 KO2's when my current tires get thin.
Are you getting any rubbing with the 275/70's? I'v got a little rub on with 265/70's and 1.5" spacers, but I haven't had an alignment yet.

Can't you adjust the coilover up front instead of adding a spacer?

Looks great!

Any added wind noise from the a-pillar lights?

That's a nice stance. Are you nose high at all?

thanks, not nose high at all. When i first installed the lift it looked like it actually sat about a 3/4" higher in the rear. Then again it could've just been the cut of the rear fenders/wheel well and body lines playing tricks on my eyes.

ok, that's good to know. What is your point of reference? Are you using the distance from the running boards to the ground or some other measurement point?

I get a whistle sometimes and highway speeds.

Sorry for the slow response/

Nice man you must be stoked!!!!

mine with saggy ol springs:

Now with stock tires and bilsteins on 2nd clip from top (1.75") on stock springs and toytech superflex in the back

Finally as she sits with 255/75 dynapros

As you can see I have quite a bit of rake after my lift. The superflex in the back gave me close to 4 inches of lift, and in the front I barely got 1.5 This is not a problem with bilstien, it is my old saggy springs.

This weekend I am throwing in my buddies used toytech 620 springs on the .85 clip setting to try and net 2.5 inches total.

21.5 inch front and 24 inch rear measuring from center of wheel to wheel well.
