Did you get the E rated tires? Most are going for C rated in 285/70/17. The 18 inch wheels on the new 4 runner donāt have C rated. Itās exactly why I put 17ās on it

I bought them from eBay.
I used the new Tacoma trd off road 17 inch wheels powder coated all black. The stock offset and 285 70 17 have no issues. Just an fyi as another option.
Time to swap out those street tires.

FYI if you end up revisiting thisā¦.Fox told me their front springs are linear. The only problem I see with mixing a progressive spring in the back is making defensive highway maneuvers dangerous. I believe the shocks themselves are linear
My question is why not stick with the suspension you have? Itās an old man EMU system. You can buy 2 inch rear lift springs from Arb designed specifically for the suspension you have. Iām not sure if your front shocks have the clip springs to lift the front. I know if you buy the same suspension...
I think I would have ordered the OME rear lift springs that lift the rear 2ā and then either moved the front circlip to bring the front up to a 3ā lift. No circlips? Iām sure someone has a solution. The OME KIT from arb which is the same as the trail hunter (just not lifted very much) is a 3/2...
