Front lift with 5100's ?

new to the forumn! First Tacoma 2015 Tacoma double cab sport 4x4. My name is Miguel. I know this has been asked plenty of times I've read a lot of them but still haven't found my answer. I just want to know if I can add the 5100's to get about a 2" lift in the front to level off the truck using stock springs. I just added wheels and tires and didn't think they would rub , now that they do I just wanna level off the truck to not have any issues. I won't be doing any major off roading, just fishing trips and taking it out hunting. Thanks

 

Yes you can. Bilstein 5100 come with 4 settings. 0, .85, 1.75, and 2.5. I wouldn't go above the 1.75 setting as it compresses your coils for lift. I have your same truck and have mine set at the 1.75 setting. I added a 1/4 too plate on both fronts for an even 2" plus a 1" block in the back.

 

Perfect. Thanks

 

What size tires are those?

 

It's going to be much stiffer up front if you use your stock spings and the 5100s to lift. Better to lift with a longer spring and keep the 5100s at "0."

 

They are 265/70/17
