Great looking rig. Couldnt stop staring at the tread on the tires. They look mean.
 
Not to sound stupid what does how does tow tuned work? When I lift my rig I want to set it up so the front isn't blinding on coming cars when I tow my boat.

Thanks!!!!!!
 
Put some 285/70s on this afternoon. Was going to get Duratracs, but with my driving the Yoko Geolander AT-S were a better option.

Pre and post Bilstein 5100 List @ 2.5 in + rear coils

I know it needs tires, but I thought for the most useful comparison I'd show the before and after with the stock rubber. I did the Bilstein 5100s all around with the Toytec coils in back. The front is at +2.5 inches.

I have to say that the folks at Toytec were VERY helpful pre and post purchase. The were also quite polite to a biologist who was a little short of practical knowledge. Very professional as well.

Now tires: 255/80s or 285/70s? Maybe someone can photoshop some tires for me.

i'm thinking of doing the exact same thing for a lift and leave the stock tire until they wear out (money issues).

How is the ride and such? looks great.

The ride is GREATLY improved. It has firmed up, but at the same time, it isn't harsh. The nose diving under braking is gone. I don't think I realized how bouncy the stock suspension was until I did the lift. I was hesitant about doing the 2.5/2.0 front/rear, but am now glad I did.

I hear you on the tires: I'm still struggling on whether or not to wait a bit. I doubt I will wear out stock tires, however.

It will clear as long as you get the right offset and backspace. If your running stock uca,you will get a little rubbing at full lock to the right or left. You would also need to push your front fender inner liner forward to prevent the rubbing. If your running aftermarket uca's, then that will eliminate a lot of the rubbing issues. Might have to still move inner liner forward.
