    I think he has 15%, if not darker.. May have been 5%. I have 20% up front and factory smoked glass on rear, no added tint.

    I like it. Legal here is 35% and I didn't want to bother with risking a ticket which I think is around $300 PER window.

    Legal here is none. But not really enforced by local PDs unless you're an asshole on the road. California Highway Patrol seems to be the main enforcers but again, it isn't as dark as it looks in the picture and I don't drive like a douche. I think if I had more mods it'd be more noticeable but so far so good.

    Thats double 15% on front.
    And stock tint, 15% and 5% on rear
    Those measurements are As it sits:
    Pelfreybilt plate bumper
    Sliders
    IFS, tranny and transfer case skids
    Tall relentless bed bars
    RTT
    Hi-Lift
    Axe
    shovel
    Custom stereo

    Ends up being quite a bit of added weight. You'd likely just fine with 885s since you arent planning on wheeling it or adding a winch.

    884X coils. OME Nitrochargers front and rear. Dakars.

    Should be going from 1.75" front/2" rear to 2.75-3" rear and 2.25-2.5" front.

    I forgot to mention that if you do go with OME coils to also pick up a 1/4" top spacer for driver side to account for taco lean. idk if anyone mentioned that yet or not. good luck with the lifting :thumbsup:

    very nice my friend

    lol yeah I have been lucky. its just that the OME are the same exact length unlike the stock springs so taco lean would be even worse than it already is :eek:

    I'm confused, I thought Taco lean was stock, even replacing with OME you need a spacer?

    the stock coils are side-dependent. so the driver side is slightly longer to counteract taco lean.

    the OME are not side-dependent meaning they are the same length. Therefore the lean is worse. so you need to put a 1/4" spacer on just the driver side in order to eliminate taco lean. The spacer is cheap from like Wheeler's

    My Tacoma is lower on the drivers side by 1/4" front and back. I'd assume the driver's side would be higher to account for a drivers and a full gas tank weird.

    Some people get the lean bad with the stock coils and some don't lol technically... The stock coils are supposed to correct the lean though. its kinda hit or miss. Either way you will need to install a 1/4" spacer on the drivers side if you go with OME but its only like 15 bucks
