    Ive searched and read and lurked, but now I need your opinions. I've just recently taken my truck wheeling and I had a blast. I drive mainly highway miles but its only about 6,000 miles per year. I'll have plenty of opportunity to use the offroad wheels and clearance once I get it on. My budget is about $2,000 for the lift. I have a 2012 super white access cab TRD Sport and I like the stock ride. I need a lift, wheels and tires. What do I get?

    You are limited because tires alone will be about 1000 after tax and install fees etc. The easy solution for the price is 5100s and an add a leaf or block for the rear. You will need a new alignment thrown into the cost too.

    I would think wheels and tires are going to eat up most of your 2000.

    IMO...wait a little more and save some more money. Then you can get what you want in a couple months. Buy once, cry once.

    I went with the complete Ironman Lift. I think it was like 900.00 and it had the four shocks and the front and rear springs. The rear springs are 200 times better than stock. It also came with new bushings and u bolts. I sold my stock set up on craigs list and recovered almost half of the lift

    In my opinion, full OME, with new upper control arms.
