    Hello I’m new here but I just purchased a 2019 Trd off road 4x4 quicksand. I wanna go with 285/70/17 bfg ko2. Haven’t decided which rim yet. I don’t wanna spend a bunch of money on the lift but I do want something that’s gonna give me a comfortable ride and a great stance. I wanna be at at least 2.5”. I’ve been looking at doing the Bilstein 5100 with or without the ome 888 & aal. Can I get some advice on if it’s worth it to add the ome 888 or just to stick with the stock coils? Thanks guys!

    Great first post. Lots of information here, including in the new member section.
    Lift and size are not linear, but by going to 70's you give yourself many more options...happy researching...it will take a month or so to figure this out even if you talk to vendors. Take your budget, double it, then again and you'll be in good shape...

    My opinion would be to go with the coils. It will ride alot better than setting the 5100s all the way up.

    Do some research on the Dobinsons Quick Ride kit. Solid alternative to a 5100 set up.

    888’s will settle lower than 2.5. I probably got like 2” out of mine in the end. Pretty disappointed by them.
