    I forget, but I recently got a quoted $200 for shipping on a full Icon coilover lift with rear shocks, UCAs and leaf pack.
    I might go this route now...
    Is $365 with the dakar pack? I think I quoted with the dakar pack.

    17x9 4.5 BS -12mm offset, fuel krank. They come in -1 offset with the above said specs as well. -1mm would not stick out as far past the feners as -12, and I would have got them, but was in fear of not clearing the brake calipers.

    Please don't turn these wheels into the next dick cepeck dc-2, where so many people have them they're considered ugly and un original now

    Good looking Taco's people.

    A question: I have decided to go with the OME kit. In the future I have designs on and ARB or similar front bumper. Should I just go ahead and get the 886's now, and if so what adjustments do I need to make to the back, if any? (Also, I do plan on adding air bags in back-also in the future, so take that into consideration, but I need the truck to drive well and look good prior to ARB and or/air bags, because you never know, the future can be a long time)

    If you are going to get the ARB bumper I would go right ahead and get the 886 coils. Without the bumper it will be a little rough but with the bumper it will be just right.

    As for the rear hopefully someone with more knowledge can chime in and help with that. I got the Dakar springs and love them. I have the access cab and with no weight in the back it is a little rough but with weight it is a dream. Good luck and looking forward to see what you do.

    Hope that kinda helps.
