    Researching for awhile now and have finally come to what I believe would be a decent cost efficient setup. Any advice or criticism is welcome.

    -Just bought 5100 Billys for the front with Eibach coils, Planning to set at 2.5", and Billys 5125 for the rear, I have the TSB in back so only purchased a 1.5 AAL from Toyotec.

    -Light Racing UCAs for extra camber and caster adjusment

    -Thinking of doing Fuel Krank rims 17x9 with -12 mm offset and 4.5 backspacing and Cooper Discoverers S/Ts 275/70r17


    Wondering if I am going to run into rubbing issues. Also I am concerned about the distance the tire is going to stick out from the fender. I live in California and am unsure how strict they follow that law. I would be willing to add Bushwacker pocket fender flares for extra coverage if needed.

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Billies @ 2.5 on Eibachs providing 1.6" of lift for over 4" of lift on a 4x4 ?

    Hey OZ-T, I have read a lot of your stuff, you are great on this forum. Ok so thanks for this kind of question because obviously i am not sure what i am doing. So i guess it makes more sense to set it at .85 since i will already be adding 1.6" with the eibachs???

    Yeah , I wasn't sure if you meant you were trying to get 2.5" of total lift or if you meant set the billies at 2.5

    Correct , generally billies at .85 when used with Eibachs
