Thank you! No spacers! Just 285's with 0 offset on the wheels!

Thank you guys!
Thanks man, they are pretty good looking trucks and that's why I kicked my prius and got it!

It's all up to preference and priorities. If you have the means and you want it bad enough, then go for it! The look was worth the money to me, because I envied the TRD Pros so much for their bad ass looking front ends compared to my regular one... I thought to myself, "I can make my truck look like a Magnetic Gray Metallic TRD Pro but more upgraded, and nobody will really have the same looking thing around me so I'll be unique." That's why I bought mine, but now they confirmed a Gray TRD Pro 4Runner for 2016... I guess you can say mine was the first? Hahaha

What are the specs for the Method NV wheels? Where did you get them? I couldn't find the 17 inches on tirerack.com
I know you're using the 885 now, but did you have any negative rake with just the Bilstein at 1.75"? I'm considering a mild lift and it seems the consensus is that 1.75 lift with just the Bilstein will give you level stance without the weight. Have you had any negative rake with cargo (added weight)?

So youre up on a 3" lift with 17s and a zero offset? No rubbing? Ever consider a small offset for a little more poke and clearance? I am considering a similar setup but desire a small amount of poke for clearance. Have any issues with that offset and setup while offroad or is everything good?

Any pics of the katskin interior? And if you don't mind me asking, what did it run you? I'm thinking about a 15 Trail (not premium) but would like to swap out the interior at some point if I go that route.

Those don't look like 265's. Truck looks good! Think I will be ordering the bilsteins soon.

Came here for the same question. Also does the contrasting red stitching match up with the door cards and arm rest?

Only rubbing is full lock reverse. I want to get different wheels though, because i want more of a negative offset that'll make the tires stick past the fenders a bit more. So I am looking at possible alternatives right now.
I don't have any issues or complaints about the setup as it's been working perfectly for me

Those are the way to go, I just bought mine with the rims the day I bought my rig, after researching I would've done 285's as well. Oh well! Put it on the list of things needed!

Thanks for the pictures, they look great! Possibly even better than factory softex stuff. Did you go through the dealer for the Katzkins?

No problem! Thank you for the kind words. I am super ecstatic about them. Yeah I have felt the soft tex and they are crap compared to these to be honest. The leather is so plush and soft and feels so nice to the touch. The soft tex feels a lot like plastic after feeling how soft these are. I went through a local shop, Prestige Auto Upholstery in Anaheim, CA to order and install for me. They did an amazing job.
