I too am staying stock size tires - speedo stays accurate, mpg's don't suffer and it also looks pretty good as is. This is the Bilstein 2.5/1.5 daystar combo. Couldn't be more thrilled with the way it looks and handles!

Did you put new shocks all around or just the Billy's in front with the spacer in the rear? Is there a reason why you went the route you did? Did you keep the stock springs?

New 5100's all the way around, I am a fan of matching front and rear when possible so that the damping works in concert. Stock coils.
I did this setup because I'm 99% street and commuting to and from work so I wasn't about to spring $1,000+ on any type of coil over kit. I also don't like the idea of just spacers because I think the stock SR5 shocks leave a lot to be desired - they're quite mushy and soft. Now, spacers on an XREAS or KDSS vehicle? You could probably get away with that.
For me this setup is best of all worlds for a primary street driver - it isn't too expensive, it gives you a level and lifted ride, and firms up the driving characteristics as well. I hate all the reviews on the roly-poly ride of the BOF 4runner because for short money, you can eliminate A LOT of that.
