    I have a 2016 Tacoma Sport, I'm about to buy the SUPREME SUSPENSION suspension, but I'm not sure which one to buy, 2 ", 2.5" or 3 ".
    My fear is to buy the 3 "and the suspension is fragile.
    I have the same size of tires 265/70 R17
    SUPREME SUSPENSION is a good brand?
    3 "is recommended?

    I say 2 inch on the front and a one inch rear block will give you some slight rake. That's how I set mine up. IMG_20181009_182148344.jpg

    It's not being a wimp, it's being sensible. Extreme suspension mods often cause other things to break. I plan to do a lift and wheels/tires, but I will stick with a max 2 inch lift and probably go with 265-275/70/17 tires on 4Runner TRD OEM wheels. For me, that's enough to improve the look and functionality of the truck without straining the driveline or severely compromising fuel economy or power delivery. Plus I'm planning to install a heavy FWC Fleet slide-in eventually and I want to maintain solid road handling as well as off-road capability. Keeping things simple is the way to go if you want your rig to actually be functional.

    Looks awesome! I just purchased the same truck, a 2020 DCLB OR in MGM. I decided before I even got it that I wanted the 4Runner pro wheels, but I'm still deciding on the suspension components. I want a 1.5-2 inch lift overall and I want to keep things as simple as possible while getting some improvement in on-road handling and off-road capability. I'm leaning toward Bilstein 6112 up front and OME Dakar heavy duty leaf packs in the rear, but not sure about the rest. Whatever I go with needs to be able to handle full-time maximum payload.

    Did anyone who has done a 2in lift had to replace any ucas to get the alignment into spec? Trying to lift my 2020 sport 4wd as much as I can without having to replace more then shocks/springs and a aal or block in the back ( my truck only goes on pavement and outer banks beaches with minor snow here in Virginia Beach)

    I just purchased a 2020 DCLB TRD Off-road and I want to upgrade to 265/70/r17 Falken Wildpeaks on 4Runner TRD wheels. I was planning to run thru the factory Goodyear Kevlars first, but if I can find a committed buyer for my factory wheels and tires, I might just make the upgrade now. You would have to pick them up in northeast Ohio because it would be WAY too expensive to ship them. Anyone can PM me if interested. I'm also selling the Predator steps that came with the truck, so a package deal could be had!

    I'm curious how do the Bilsteins ride at the highest setting? I've read that when maxed out they are pretty severe over speed bumps, drop offs, pot holes etc. Also exactly how much lift does the top setting provide?

    Call Mike at ETA I Norfolk. He lifted mine and my son's truck. Turn key perfect!

    You pay for what you get. He was a little higher than Pungo and Hi Dust and the same as 4wheel parts. His quality is so much higher than the other shops. Everyone is always impressed.

    Thats the 1.1 notch? Almost still looks stock height and rake to me. Might have to go notch 4 on mine when installed. I was planning 1.1 with no rear lift also, running 265/70/17

    Does anyone have this tire set up with 17x8.5 -20 wheel set up? I hear there are rubbing issues on stock height and wanted to know what suspension you ran to get rid of the issue.
