    Hey guys I am a new member to the forum although I have gained most of my tacoma knowlege through this forum. I just ordered Bilstein 5100 shocks front and rear from Downsouthmotorsports. I plan on running them on the 1.75 setting with no lift in the rear for hopefully a level truck. I plan on running 275/65/18 Bfg all terrain tires on Hoss XD rims. What kind of issues could I run into. I really do not want to rub at all. Any comments and info is much appreciated.

    Billstein 5100's all around, ToyTec coilovers up front, ToyTec 1.5" AAL in the rear with TSB leaf springs, Light Racing Upper Control Arms, XD Revolvers in Black wrapped in 265/70/17 BFG TA/KOs, AFE Pro Dry S Airfilter, Pioneer AVIC-X920BT in-dash NAVI, Devil Horns by Andres, 14 inch shorty antenna
    I'm running front billies set at 1.75 with the xd revolvers wrapped in BFG's 265-70-17 and I had some rubbing on the forward fenderwell liner. After a decent amount if work with a dremmel tool the rubbing is pretty much gone. I rad a lot of threads on here from guys that had no rubbing issues at all so it may vary from truck to truck.

    If I was you I would plan on a little rubbing but hope it doesn't.

    I'm running the 5100's at 1.75 and before I got the TSB rear leaf I was slightly nose-up. Definitely wasn't level.
