I'm needing some advise for my lift. I have a 2007 4x2 V8 Sport with XREAS. I just leveled the front with a Daystar spacer lift. Purchased some new tires today, 265/70R17 BF Goodrich All Terrains. Had them put on today with Spidertrax, and now i'm rubbing. I love the tires and the look with the Spidertrax. I do not want to do any modifying in the wheelwell, I just want to put a suspension lift on it. I was going to lift it anyways in about 6 months. I know i'm very limited what I can do if I keep the XREAS. So that being said, I have no problem whatsoever ditching the XREAS. The advise i'm after is what lift set-up do you guys suggest. My number one concern is ride quality, i have been very impressed with the ride quality with the XREAS. I will NEVER be using this 4runner for off-roading, maybe just the occasional drive to the mountains with some slick roads or snow. I'm looking for something around a 3inch lift with the best ride quality for a pavement princess. Any advise is much appreciated. Thanks.

MY OPINION ONLY: Ditch Xreas, add Bilstein 5100s, add FJ 4x4 coils front and rear, front set MAX rear add a 1.5" spacer, keep Spidertrax, remove front sway bar, extend rear sway bar links, and possible mud flap removal. FOR ME: drives like a Cadillac (better than stock with Xreas) with no harshness. MY OPINION ONLY.
 
With the offset of the wheel with spidertrax you really just need to move the fender liner forward. Many people have to do that lifted or not when wheel spacers added ...

How do you move the wheel well liners forward?

just get down there and take a look. that's what i did...popped a few things out, re-aligned the existing holes of both the liner and the bumper (different match-up after pushing forward), and zip-tied into place. no drilling or cutting needed.
