Have you been thru a set yet? How many miles do you think you'd get out of it? I talked to some guy who has these on his GX the other day and he pretty much said the same thing you said. I think they look great.

Still putting miles on them, need to rotate soon but they're wearing pretty well I'd say. We'll have to see but I'd guess maybe around 30k miles is about right - depending on how much time you speed off road.

Picked up this '07 SR5 just over a year ago and have been slowly gathering parts. This is my daily driver and although I def take it off-road at least a few times a month, I didn't want to do anything super extreme...not yet at lease.
First up, 3" OME suspension lift (Front: 884/90021 with SPC UCA's. Rear: 895/60004) which was followed shortly after with some Rad Rubber splash guards since the original guards disintegrated during the suspension install. Next up, TRD Pro wheels which I found for around $160 each from a Toyota parts wholesaler in Ohio. The last piece of the puzzle (so far): BFG KO2's in LT285/70r17 (load range C 116/113Q) which I just had installed yesterday.
Aside from the lift, the only thing I did in prep for the 33's was the fender liner mod and removal of front mud flaps. No rubbing anywhere at all during normal driving, even at full lock left/right in both forward/reverse. The only place I get a slight amount of rubbing is the outside of the front bumper when I am driving downhill and go over a big bump or curb. After you do the fender liner mod, there's a tiny, sharp flare in the bumper that needs to be dremeled off....simple fix.
Very happy with how everything turned out!

Not sure I ever posted it since it got lifted.
It's going through some changes coming up soon...
Right after I bought it (2014)
Today:
If you ever wanna sell this rig please let me know! I need Imperial JAde!
Well.. like I said, not staying that way for long. New wheels amd tires are on. I joined the 35" club today.
American racing 201 wheels, 17x9 -12 offset,
Falked wildpeak 315 70 17 tire
Bilstien 5100 shocks, ome heavy duty springs
1in body lift
Factory uca
Body mount chop
Beat in pinch weld
Front and rear bumper trim
Diff drop
Sway bar relocate
The wheela fit with no spacers. I was worried about clearing the uca with -12 offset but have about .5 inches of clearance. Haven't done a flex test yet, im sire ill need to extend rear bump stops and maybe trim some more.
Only small issue is sway bar rub at full lock with some flex. It may be possible that putting it back to factory non relocated position will give it more clearance.
I love the look. It is literally what I was going for.

Current setup:
2019 Tacoma suspension (front springs & shocks, rear shocks)
2007 FJ Cruiser rear coils
1" body lift
2007 Sequoia 17" split spoke wheels
Toyo Open Country AT III 285/70/17
Had minor rubbing at the front of the front fender, only on the plastic liner. Trimmed that and no more rubbing, at least on the street. Hitting Moab in a week so I'll find out soon enough if it rubs anywhere else.
Best I have for pics at the moment.

Nice! Curious to hear how you like those new Open Country AT III's. I almost went with those instead of KO2's. They seem like a really nice tire. Did you go with LT or P rated?

I had AT IIs on my 99 Tacoma and loved them. So far, same thing with the AT III. Always liked Toyo AT and mud tires.
These are LT E rated.

Got a better pic outside the garage today before doing some work.
Installed my lift this weekend!

SUPER happy with the way it rides compared to the worn XREAS I ripped out.
Next is Alignment Wheels and Tires.

Looks great, stock UCAs?
Thx! Ya stock UCA's for now. I'm going to get an alignment this weekend and see how it handles. Currently pulling to the right very slightly.
I finally got around to getting some work done on this after a COVID-related funds delay. 2004 v8—I put on bilstein 5100s w/ ome 883 in front, bilstein 5100 w/ wheelers t12 in back and went up one tire size to the Wildpeaks. it looks a little bit high in the back but I'll see how it settles out. haven't done any measurements yet, but i wanted a mild lift and like it so far.

Looks great with the back up a little. It should keep the front geometry for the steering a little tighter, too, theoretically. Ever see a stock f150? Like 2" on wheel wells up front and 6" or 8" in the rear..
I like how it looks!
What about your front 5100's? Which height setting did you choose?
Are the 883's high enough to keep the bilsteins at '0' notch?
