OME Rear Springs

So I've done my searching and came to a conclusion that I am looking for the OME rear springs paired with bilstein 5100s with the TRD front setup

Now my question is will the bilsteins be a good setup with the OME's and which OME's should I go with, I want them to be as road friendly as possible and also be able to handle towing a 17' boat. So if anyone who has OME rear springs will chime in and just tell me what you think. How do you like yours? Would you do anything different? Pics would also be great.

I already know most will probably say go with LCs but I've searched too long for some and decided they'll be too much lift anyway and from what I've read they're no good with towing which I will be doing every weekend.

Thanks in advance to all

I loved my 890s and 5125s, and now I have 5150s and love them even more!

I had 891s and didnt like them. Too stuff unless you are loaded up 24/7.
 
Ripcord your running 890s with 5150s right now?

Any reason 5150s over 5100s? Also how's the on road experience with the 890s? What's your front setup?

That is correct, I have 5150s over 5100s becuase 5150s are awesome and super comfy and planted.

In the front I have OME nitro shocks with OME 883's, its for sale too.. :D

Haha thanks but I'm set on the TRDs now, where did you buy the 5150s from? Would these also work well with the TRDs ?
 
just to chim in here, im running the 5125s in the rear (with LC 8 wraps) and i love the 5125s, they do very well. i was considering getting the 5150s, but i had read a couple of places that the shock can turn, and if that happens while flexed out the reservoir can get sheared off... i guess it happened to a guy on here, i guess it was DOUS(?), anyhow thats the only reason i didnt go with the 5150s. i have a set of the 891s that i might be putting in as my 8 wraps are a little tall for me, but i will have to wait til i set the TRD fronts in the 4th setting on my 5100s(but that one be till i put the bumper on up front...

but bottom line is you cant go wrong with bilsteins, they are some of the best shocks out there
 
The studded ends like 4runners use can turn, but I have eye mounts on mine. The eye mount kind dont turn if you tighten them right.
