Lifted ground to fender measurements

[KellyJ]

I'm trying to figure out why kelly j's measurements are almost 2-3" higher than mine, yet we have the same springs. I understand the different tire size but that should only be 1" at the most?

Well I do have the top plate spacers in front, which add half an inch. Were all your tires aired to the same PSI, and how much fuel was in the tank? I got my measurements with about a third of a tank, with 33 PSI in the tires. Although it doesn't sound like much, these measurements, when combined together do effect the measured ride height

so would 881's the top plate spacer and 906's in rear with some trim packers give a level lift. if anybody has this setup please post some pics

Has anyone heard of ome 880 front springs. Arb is sending them to me currently and I haven't heard of them on here.

 

[juiceboxer]

yes the 880's are softer than the 881's not too many people go with those coils but they are definitely an option!

It should yes. I just ordered some trim packers for my 906's and once the holiday season is over I will have them installed and give you some pics and feedback.

that would be great if you could send me some pics of your lift when you put the trim packers. also see if it rides different by adding the trim packers compared to how it is with just the 906s. im going with the same coils as you 881 and 906 but am running 31x10.5 15s. im thinking i should order the top plate spacer and trim packers like you are because once these tires run out, i might wanna go with 33's but i do only have 15s which i want to keep. so not sure. but i would like to have the extra parts handy if and when i get bigger tires. but i don't want to go with 16s since i love 15s i have and also 15" tires will be cheaper for me. take it easy and good luck

You can get 33x12.5s or 33x10.5s for 15" rims. I recommend the 33x10.5s because you'll probably have rubbing issues w/ 12.5" wide tires on a yota. The smaller the rim, the better for off road anyways IMO.

 

[hdoggie24]

yea im pretty much leaning with 33x10.5 with my 15s. not many companies tho make this size. all i see is pretty much bfg's. i will go with an all terrain tire as most of my driving is onroad anyway. and i think the skinnier tire will be better for the street as well. i just don't hope it doesn't look too skinny

 

[brian2sun]

I personally really like the look of big, skinny tires on Yotas. I have 285s which are 33x11s and I think they look great, and there are people running 255s which are 33.5x10s and they look great too.
