    According to this point of view, what are your feelings about the 285/75/16? Do you think this size of tires may create any kind of issue?

    You'll likely have some rubbing that will need to be mitigated. Probably will have to give the pinch weld a massage, trim some plastic, and a good alignment.

    Stand by, someone with some personal experience on that tire will probably be along shortly.

    I honestly don’t think so. I have seen a lot of positive feedback regarding the possibility to gacex285/75/16 on TRD PRO stock.

    Anyway let’s see If somebody will share his first hand experience about it! ;)

    You’ll be fine with 285s just Add a leaf and do cab mount chop. If you wanna go bigger do a drop bracket lift.

    Before moving forward make sure you understand how the internal bypass Fox shocks work. Adding preload and spacers is not goin to jive well with how those shocks function on a fundamental level.

    However, a respring and possibly a new leaf pack, I'm anticipating, will be the best solution that will help the vehicle sit a little more proud without necessitating replacing the awesome Fox components.

    Thank you. This is exactly what I was thinking. As far as you know can I install the Eibach Lift Kit Springs on the original Fox 2.5?

    No, it’s been said numerous times Eibach is working on a spring but it’s not out.

    Imo you got the pro for that suspension. Why mess with it. I got an off-road knowing I was going to lift it and get rid of oem suspension. The pro has nice fox shocks through some 265/75/16 and call it before you go down a worm hole.
    Good luck OP

    Yes, and no. :) I agree, if you want to lift or modify a Pro is not the way to go. Leave it alone. However, I suspect the spring rate on the Pro is a bit soft, especially if you add weight. A more appropriate spring, with a matching spring rate is possibly going to be a very worthwhile upgrade.

    I fit 285/75/16 BFG Ko2's on my stock 2020 pro with no rubbing even at moderate flex. Most non-pro owners will tell you that you need to CMC but its simply not true.
    I looked into the Westcott lift but ultimately decided against it. EDIT: looks like Eibach is finally making good progress on springs for the pro, so i'll definitely consider those.

    Mine should be here in a week. Maybe I should’ve waited for reviews, but I have impulse control issues.
