Here You can see my new OME 884/90000 & 895/60004 suspensions
Dobinson before
Ome
On pictures you see tyres in size 265/65/17 so original size for J120 and T4R , now I have winter tires in Morocco I used 245/75/17 , next size will be real 32 inch 255/75/17 (Jeep wrangler size )
Regards Marek
P.S definitely OME is more comfy and is working like suspension, Dobinson was very hard , I think this was main reason that was broken

Crappy iphone pic:
hey man really like your setup. yours is closest on here to what I actually want to do with mine. How did the lift and one step bigger tires affect your gas mileage?
Which Toytec spacer kit did you get? Did you get the 3" lift/leveling kit with just the spacers for 219 or the the 3" FJ lift kit with coils and spacers for 299? It is on this website: Complete Lift Kits - Toytec Lifts: Toyota Lift Kits: FJ Cruiser Lift Kits, Tacoma Lift Kits, Tundra Lift Kits, 4 Runner Lift Kits, Sequoia Lift Kits, Toyota Truck Lift Kits
Sick look by the way for ur 4Runner, I have on 04 SR5 and I want mine to look very similar to this. Especially the stock rims. Very nice

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.
I have an 06 4runner Ltd and I did the bilstein 5100s all around and maxed out the front at 2.5" and I kept the stock springs. In the rear I had Old Man Emu springs (885s I believe) installed and then everything was alligned. I also did the brake line extension and rdd.
Now I wanted the wider stance to fill the wheelwells up so I decided to go with the blue spydertrax wheel spacers.
I had this all installed by a professional brake and alignment shop in Langley. I notice vibration at about 50-55 mph. At lower speeds I hardly feel any wheel vibration but when I'm hitting hwy speed and my hand is at the bottom of the wheel I feel a slight shake. It drives me crazy. Im a picky guy! The wheels are balanced and I didnt have this vibration before the spacers and lift. These are the hub centric ones so I didnt expect this!! I dont think the lift that I'm running would cause this either??
Has anyone experienced this before? If I remove the front spacers do I need another alignment before I can road test it? I dont want to get rid of them, they make it look so nice and fat!!
Sorry for the long post, hope to here some good feedback.
I have brand new Yokahama Geolander A/T-S on the stock wheels and then bought the FJ Cruiser wheels for the winter with the Yokahama Geolander I/T G072 snows. Awesome tires if anyone is looking for a great snow tire!!

One more thing, I'm running the stock 18" tire size that toyota recommends with the lift and spacers and I still had to do some trimming???
Especially with the snows which are a 265/65/R17. I havent removed the mudflaps yet but they do rub there a bit under full turn with a bit of a camber.
How do people run a bigger tire? What are the tricks? Do I need to add spacers up front and what size? I'd like to run the Cooper Discover Stts like I had on my TRD but I dont think I can with this set up? Whats wrong with it?

turtle,
you need to ask your tire guys to put tape weights on the inside of the wheels instead of the clip ons. Aside from that it looks great.

wow. turtle looks good, but take your truck back to your tire shop and get tape weights on and cuss them out for counter balancing your wheels. there should never be 2 or more weights on either side of the rim spaced apart. they should be together. that means that got lazy balancing and didnt do it right, and they are most likely not balanced correctly
