You won't be disappointed with the Eibach.

Another question: I have the stock tires on my ‘21 TRD pro. With the current FOX suspension, could I fit the BFG KO2 285 tires on my current stock FOX and TRD 17” wheels?
What about after getting the Eibach springs installed?

Yes, they should fit without the eibachs...my 20 has the 21 front coilovers.....I just put 285 70 17 duratracs on mine, there was some minor rub on one side which ibwas able to fix with a heat gun...nothing else required. The KO2 is slightly smaller than 33, so it should be no problem.
I will be putting the eibach springs on when they are available.

Another question: would adding 285 KO2 tires require me to get a new Upper Control Arm as I’m hearing of some people doing this? What about regearing ratios??

Neither are needed.

Awesome to see they fit!
1) Any rubbing or fender trimming needed?
2) Why did you opt to go with Duratracs instead of either BFG KO2 or Falken Wildpeak AT3?

Small amount of rub on driver front, pulled the liner forward a bit by unattached and reattached....fender liner / mudflap I used heat gun to push back and reset the shape.
Duratracs...like any tire you hear good and bad. I liked that they seemed to be slightly more aggressive in mud and the tread depth was 2/32 deeper than most. Also they have a 45k warranty (not sure about ko2 or falken)...also they are a full 33 inches O.D. Lastly every mall crawler here in Nashville runs nitto ridge grapplers...any i like to be different. Plus its not a mall crawler. I'm not a hard-core badass, but it has its share of pinstripes and gouges on the skids.
I am looking to do a lift on my 2021 Pro, but need to make sure it still fits in the garage. I saw some had the Westcott with 285's with the factory pro rack. How tall is the highest point on the rack with that setup (if you do not mind me asking). Can anyone give the same measurements on the Eibach springs with 285s (assuming 2020, since the 2021 is not out yet last I checked).
I know the Eibach springs are a bit stiffer, but are there any ride differences you notice with the Westcott lift? (Reading through I did not see anything major in that area for the Westcott)
Any help is appreciated.

I don't know the exact measurements, but without the rack and just stock side rails I barely fit in my parents garage with the Eibach.

Won't work on 2018 with Bilsteins
One thing nobody mentioned (that I found out from Eibach) is you can't put this kit on anything older than 2019. It only works if you have the Fox Coilovers, not the Bilstein coilovers that the the 2018 and older have. I was ready to buy the springs, but that made the decision for me, so I pulled the trigger on the Westcott. Either way, people seem to be very happy and have no rubbing issues simply throwing 285s on stock wheels after either lift, and that is what I was looking for. Thank you!!!

Appreciate all of the feedback on here from others who went this route. I just had the Eibach springs and 285 Wildpeaks put on my 19 Pro and so far I like the look. The ride is definitely firmer and you feel some of the smaller bumps more than before. It also wanders a little side to side at interstate speeds now. Overall I would do it again. I don't do any hardcore off-roading, so can't speak to rubbing at full articulation, but I towed my 16 foot trailer through a pasture over some pretty good bumps and no issues.

[MENTION=11567]Jeff74mg[/MENTION] - looks good. I have the Eibach's on mine as well. Aside from the springs (and an alignment, I'm assuming), was there anything else that you needed to do to get the 285s to fit?
The shop didn’t mention anything else and I don’t see any signs of trimming, so looks like the 285 Wildpeaks fit fine without further trimming or modifications.
