    Hi everyone

    New member from Quebec. I've been reading the posts for over a month and learned a lot. I recently ordererd a complete lift kit from Toytec ,
    Still waiting for it. I chose the adjustable shocks with Elbach coils and 1 1/2 inch aal in the back with new shocks
    I'm thinking of setting the front at 2.5. and i guess i'll get 2 inch of lift
    My question is , what size tire would you guys recommend for that kind of lift ?

    fox extended travel remote resivoir coilovers, 14" eibach 600lb coils, All Pro tubular chromoly 1" uniball upper control arms, All Pro expedition leaf packs, 10" bilstein 5150 piggyback reservoir shocks 265/75r16 Goodyear wrangler MT/R kevlars wrapped around 16" Helo 791 gloss black, Mini H1 retrofits with 6000k bulbs, 18" magnaflow w/custom exhaust reroute various decals, Sockmonkey retro hood stripes
    depends on if you're willing to pound your fender and trim plastic.
    if you are, a 33" tire is the way to go.

    if you don't want to deal with that, go with a 265/75r16

    yes the eibachs give 1.4" of lift alone. so you normally only go to .85 on the billies...

    Thats a good size, you can run that size with no lift.
