TBH I lifted it pretty much right away, it had 475 miles on it. So I didn't really note the mileage pre- lift and tires. I bought the 4runner with the intent of lifting it so I just couldn't wait, hah
Turned out awesome! I Agree the 1.75" inch springs in the rear is a good look. What kind of shoes are you putting on it, or are you keeping those Michelins?
New rear coils typically lift the rear a minimum of 1.25” so in order to get a 1 inch lift in the rear, I believe rear pucks are what’s available. That’s just my understanding.
I went in with the presumption that if I stayed under 2.5” of lift in the front then I would be able to recover back into alignment without needing to get aftermarket UCAs. Even though I’d be very tempted to get Bilstein UCAs for gen 6 4Runner when they come out with them.

Soo, I decided to scrap the whole 1" spider tracks paired with the SR5 rim to try and fit the 285/75R17 K03. My mindset lately has shifted to how to best naturally fit a 285/75R17.
Ordered some Method 703's 35 offsets. lol
Thank you, I already have the Westcott pucks so if circlip setting 4 (2.4" for SR5) on front 6112s is too high then I'll have to drop it down a size to the (2" lift), I like many others would prefer a lift with a small factory rake than a dumpy bottom.
I don't like the idea of spacers either...
