What do you think about if I leave the rear, bring the front up to level, and throw on some 285/70/17's?

Thanks bud, I wanted a red one! Jealous... but I settled for black. I live in the dusty dessert, so not optimal, lol.

I don't think you'll be a happy person. See Below Reference Information provided on the same page.:
What does it take to fit x tire with x lift?
Front/Rear Lift Tire Size
Stock -
265/65R17
265/70R17* (except BFG A/T)
1/0
265/70R17* (31.6x10.4)
255/75R17 (32 x 10)
2/1
265/70R17
255/75R17
3/2
275/70R17 (32.2 x 10.8)
285/70R17† (32.6 x 11.2)
255/80R17* (33 x 10)
3/2 + 1-1.5" Body Lift
255/85R17† (34 x 10)
285/70R17†
305/65R17† (32.6 x 12)
* requires removal of mud flaps and probably minor trimming
† requires trimming and may require body mount chop (click here for details on body mount chop), upper control arms, and/or increased backspacing.
Add 5 to the middle number for 16" wheels, subtract 5 for 18" wheels (265/75R16=265/70R17=265/65R18)
The above assumes you're using stock wheels and no wheel spacers. Aftermarket wheels or wheel spacers will increase rubbing, more trimming will need to be done in order to fit the listed size.

On the left, My buddy Chads truck with 17x9 AR172 in Matt black and 265/70R17 Duratracs
On the right, my truck with 17x9 Mayhem Rampage in Matte black and 265/70R17 Duratracs
Both have 3" Toytec lifts (3" front, 2" rear) with 5100 Bilstein shocks
Since the photos we added a 1/2" toytec leveling kit to the front which raised the frontend by 1"
Chads being a V6 it raised the front more than mine, his is slightly above level whereas mine with the V8 is now level.
I'm sorry for the dark images.

Thanks, I think I'll just level my front end for now and throw on some TRD 17's... then, when funds permit... lift and tires

Bilstein 5100 shocks all the way around, shocks set at 2.5 in the front- $358 on eBay
2012 Fj cruiser shocks with around 10k miles on them all the way around-$100 found on Craigslist
Origionally had the XREAS suspension on my 03 4Runner and wanted to get a beefy look so I swapped them with 5100s and FJ shocks and love how it turned out. 2.5 in the front and 2.0 in the rear. Right now there is 265/65/17 on it but plan on getting 275/70/17 bfg ko2 this week. I'm stoked. Ride is great. First time poster here but long time reader. Stay tuned for more

I'm posting this here because I can't start a new thread. I just purchased a 2007 Sport and it came with brand new Presa tires. I can barely find any information about them at all online. My mechanic has never heard of them.
I plan on towing a UHaul 6x12 for 2,000 miles next month and I need to know if these tires are safe or if I need to switch them out.

I found them for about $98 a tire assuming your stock size. They are cheap I am sure, may wear quick or change color etc. if your careful and drive normally I wouldn't see why they won't make it. Just make sure you have enough air for the load. If you plan on changing for bigger or more aggressive anyway, might as well.
It's up to you, but I don't think they would fall apart or anything.

Sweet 4runner, like the.mods so far. Where do you have your rear pods mounted?

Nice, I've actually considered doing the same, was the wiring pretty easy?

Super easy! If you have a common voltmeter around, simply put your emergency brake on and put your car in reverse so that the stock reverse lights come on. Pop out one of your tail lights and see which wire has voltage running to it ONLY when you're in reverse. Then just tap into that wire and run it to your pod. Also, just a piece of advice if you're going to do your pods like mine, have a blowtorch handy so that you can heat up the bumper from the inside. The reason I say this is because the bumpers are naturally a round surface, so you'll have to flatten out the area that the pod is going into before you do a final install. I probably should've made a YouTube video for the rest of you guys haha
I hope that all made sense though.
