    My 265s are starting to look small for my 2" front lift, I kind of want a bigger diameter tire size that accommodates a 16" wheel.

    Dont have any pics right now with me, and i drove my 6spd to work.. i can get some later this evening if you'd like. Basically just cut a big rectangle out in the middle of them. Was going to try and use a heat gun and push it back, but that was taking too long

    Eric I know your trying to stay stockish honestly if your wanting COs. I’d go fox 2.0 front an rear perfect for a 2wd if you don’t plan on a bunch of armor. Retain stock ucas an levels truck out no need for an aal unless you want it. Get the great ride for under 1k.

    The kings are nice but possibly overkill for ya heck even myself but wife likes the ride was the deciding factor. I was happy with ome.

    Various people have stated that OME is "half assed." I'm possibly going for the 3" lift using Fox components, and bigger tires (BFGoodrich, of course.)

    I've never been a fan of lowered trucks. Why do you have 2 Tacomas btw?

    I’ve had icon ome an now kings. Imho ome is not half assed. To me stock springs with 5100 with preload an blocks are. But people use ome all over the world for a reason.

    At this point, I'm overwhelmed by the aftermarket suspension options for Tacoma trucks. I still wouldn't use the OME shocks, I'd rather use 6112/5160 Bilstein shocks.

    Those are nice also what’s great is so many options for use/budget. It is overwhelming an can get expensive fast. No need to keep up with the jones’s. Do whatever your instinct feels is right.

    They're definitely not for everyone lol.. It sticks to the road like glue now though!

    Have two tacomas bc the green one was my first truck and my dad gave me that one (so i cant get rid of it). Got outta college, got a job, and went and bought a 6spd v6 so i could supercharge it. I've always wanted a 6 speed and just decided to finally get one
