Do All 3rd Gens Have Same Ride Height

I have a 16' Limited and seems like every time I see a Sport or Off-Road on the highway they seem to sit a couple inches taller than mine. It could just be me.

Are they all the same?

 

Same, except pro

 

Maybe aftermarket tires?

 

Couple things that could contribute to it.

1. Sports and OR have a greater chance of the owner lifting it.
2. Limited have larger rims, smaller rubber around the tires. Might look deceiving.
3. Spacer lifts are cheap and easy, a lot of people will put a level kit on their truck for $300 right after they get it, making the front lift a little and showing more fender between truck and wheels.
4. Running boards make a vehicle look lower to the ground. OR and Sports are less likely to come with them vs. a Limited.

Look at center hub of the wheels and compare that to the bottom of the body of the truck. They should be almost in line. If you notice the center hub is a good bit lower than the bottom of the body of the truck, it's lifted in some manner.

 

Pros are the only ones that ride higher in their stock configuration. It's only 1" and only in the front, but it's still there.

 

Thanks for the responses, fellas!

 

I thought the TRDs were 1" taller than limiteds and srs?

 

No.....no they're aren't.

 

Same, except pro

 

The TRD Off-road comes with a 3" lift from the factory

 

I believe the 2018 Corolla will have this also.

 

I read this in another forum. That's why I asked. Hmmmm.

 

Derby?! Holy crap that's where I grew up!

 

The black fenders on the TRD OR's also can be deceiving but if you have running boards that could definitely be it. Those make everything look lowered imo

 

I knew they were the same height (except Pro), but I feel the same way. I was driving beside another gen3 yesterday and thought it looked higher than mine. He was still on stock wheels and tires too.

 

Small world! Where you at now? I've seen a handful of sports around town in the past year but no PRo or Off-Roads. There's a Quicksand Limited in my neighborhood.

 

Just up the road in Newton so I didn't go far... there's only one or two 3rd gens up here too.

I graduated from DHS in 2002

 

Graduated in 2002 !!....fuck, am I old!
