    Yeah that's what I'm thinking as well. I'm not against the cmc but the wear and tear on everything else. I just hope it doesn't look goofy.

    2.5 after settling I now have 285/70/17 so you can fit 33 inch tires if you want

Washington RTT Body Armor sliders ECGS bushing
    I’ve got 3rd gen 6112’s set to 6/5, Total Chaos UCA’s, Icon aal, and 5160’s ready to go on this weekend, depending on if my ECGS bushing gets here by then. I’m already running 265/75/16 Wildpeak AT3’s on stock Offroad wheels. I’m using 2 right side 5160’s and reusing an old brake bracket spacer I had lying around.

    I’m trying to decide what wheels to go with, I have one 16” TRD Pro wheel I used for a matching spare on my last truck (‘17 Pro) so I’d only need to buy 3 more of them, just wondering if I’d be better off going with a 16x8 vs the 16x7 Pro wheels.

    My ‘17 Pro had 285’s and they still looked a bit skinny, I’m guessing from the more narrow wheel. I had 16x8 Method NV’s on a 2013 and even 255’s didn’t look very skinny on them. The tires honestly looked nearly the same to me.

    Does wheel width influence the visual tire width that much, or am I just imagining it? I’ll probably still go with the Pro Tacoma wheels since it’ll be my cheapest option, I just hope I don’t want some SCS wheels that stick out more later down the road.

    Anyway, looking forward to putting the new suspension on. This thread helped me make up my mind on going 6/5 instead of 5/4 on the 6112’s.

    Had 5/4 setting on my truck just went 6/5 and what a diff it made. I have and aal in the rear and now she sits perfect front and rear. I also moved up to a 285 falken wildpeak. I’m very satisfied with how she came out

    I couldn’t remember on the instructions if running the 6/5 setting is safe for 2016 and up dcsb 4x4? Does anybody know?
