    It’s great for this guy. It’s firmer than stock. That’s what I was looking for. Always been a Bilstein fan. Other opinions will vary. I’m super stoked.

    I’m looking into a 2” lift and your set up is super nice. might have to consider those options. how much did that run you? if you don’t mind me asking...

    I NEED HELP! I have already broke one thing and don’t want to screw up anything else so here’s what I have going on I’ve searched multiple things trying to find the answer and like this guy I’ve had half a dozen people tell me different things so I’m coming here to the experts.

    I have a 2019 Tacoma TRD off-road crew cab. I am running to 265/70/17 Falken Wildpeak’s with The factory black Trd wheels that come on the forerunner. I have no idea of the backspacing on those Trd wheels whether they’re 4 1/2-10 or whatever help. I want to add the Bushwacker fenders and have them painted to match my Calvary blue truck because I saw one with them and it looked awesome. So I ordered spidertrax spacers 1 1/4 to move the wheels out with the bigger fenders the wheels/tires would stick out and match the larger fenders. I think I need a lift but I’m not sure if a 2 inch or 3 inch lift will correct my problem. I do not take it off road it is strictly a daily driver. So do in a spacer lift on my Tacoma is fine because I’m not rock crawling and I did add fire stone airbags to the rear springs because I tow a little 6 x 12 enclosed trailer. I have an 2007 JK with a TeraFlex 5 inch long arm lift kit on 37‘s that’s my play toy. My taco is strictly to ride down the road and try to look like a bad ass in my 50s not sure if that’s working but that was the goal. Once I put the spacers on I can barely turn the tires because they eat up the factory plastic fenders and the inner fenders wells. I’m new to this and need all of your help. If somebody wants to send me a PM I would be happy to give you my phone number so you can help me out please anything anyone can do to lead me in the right direction I would appreciate it very much.

    I'd make your own thread to get maximum exposure. Also for a daily driver you'll want to stay away from a lift if possible unless you don't care about MPG.

    I think for a daily driver with light offroad use you will be more than happy! Looking forward to pics after install. :cheers:

    I did, had to do some minor trimming and heat gunning the liners. It was pretty easy and no more rub.

    @Aqualoon I am shopping around now for wheels, right now I am running 265/70/17 nitto’s I like your setup with those bronze wheels, you have any advice on where to shop around for the wheels, also with those -10 offsets do they poke out fairly decent from the fender line, hard for me to tell in the pics, I have been searching the difference between the different negative offset looks but cant seem to get a good idea, the search bar only does me so much justice. I want something that pokes out but nothing crazy where i need to do a whole bunch of trimming, based off what you said about your trimming i think i can handle that. Appreciate your feedback in advance!!

    Always remember leveling kit is just that not the same as lift kit for the more serious 4wheeling6E3F71DE-1C04-46E1-BA30-6B89DF7ED8EE.jpg

    They do poke some but nothing too far for my liking. I really wanted SCS wheels so waited for them to come back in stock. Here are some more pics to show the poke.
