    Better options would include bilstein 5100's, eibach coils, or anything from old man emu.

    You can use a thin top-plate spacers on the 5100's to get a full 3".

    However, if you go over 2.5", with any lift, you will likely new new UCA's to get your alignment right.

    I liked my pro crap lift but then I recently got some coilovers and I wished I save up more money to buy coilovers instead of the lift

    If you are able to find a softer rated spring that will still be as long as the pro comps when compressed, you should be able to switch them out.

    4.5" bs would be best, for any rim width.

    10" wide rims might look a bit ridiculous with 285's imo.

    Yeah I no. I seen on a another forum a guy had 09 double cab. He had 33/12.5/20. With 20"-10" rim. With only a 3" body lift I'm trying to figure out how he got that to work ??????
