    I have been saving and am almost to my goal for a lift + tires. I will be ordering in the next month or two but I am torn on what to go with. Here are my options and a price per the cart on Headstrong's site. I can find some of the items cheaper other places by a little tiny bit but they are a site supporter and I have heard alot of great things about them.

    Option 1 - Full OME kit with 887 coils : $1229.99

    Option 2 - OME kit MINUS the dakars with LR UCAs and their AAL: $1263.99

    Option 3 - 5100's, Headstong coil springs, Icon AAL, LR UCAs: $1202.84

    Free shipping with all. I am still up in the air on tires, I am leaning heavily towards the Falken Wildpeak AT3W but am also considering the Mastercraft Courser MXT. 285/75/16 on my TRD beadlocks. I travel a lot of rough gravel roads and do what I call moderate offroading. Lots of deep ditches, rocks, creek crossings, mud ect. I am also getting into the overlanding side of things and have started planning a trip out to the Colorado and Utah area for some wheeling and camping and I LOVE road trips. The amount of highway driving I foresee in the future plays into tire selection greatly. What would you do and why? All three options have a negligible price difference. I would love to have a set of Fox or King coilovers but at the end of the day I would never utilize them to their full potential and I dont live in an area where high speed offroading is possible for the most part. Its either gravel roads or creeping up and down hills and mountains. I am also continuing to save for skids and down the road bumpers and a winch. (Ideally before or while on my trip out west to save on shipping). Thanks in advance for your input and experience!
