    Bilstein 5100s all around set at 1.75 in the front. One in. Blocks in the rear, bought from wheelers. Excellent experience with them by the way, highly recommend. Bought new trail teams 16 in. Wheels from the toyota dealership. Cost $612 and got them the next day. Wrapped them in 265/75/16 toyo a/t II. Put about 300 miles on this set up so far love it.

    - Did the tires and shocks go on at the same time?

    - Would you say there is subtle or large improvement over the stock running gear?

    - Can you describe an noticable improvement?

    Im running the same setup. I put the lift on and had to wait a few days for new wheels and tires to show up. With the lift and OEM wheels and tires, the ride was equal too or better than factory. After putting on the BFG all terrains, the ride stiffened a little but not too bad.

    Everything went on at the same time. The shocks are an improvement over stock but not a huge difference.

    If you don't mind, what was the cost of the 5100 set up? Was the installation straight forward?

    Would those wheels/tires cause any problems without additional lift?

    The wheels would work for sure with no lift, not sure about the tires.

    The install was easy and straight forward. Didn't have a spring compressor, I just used a jack. I spent about an hour and a half putting all the Bilsteins on.
