    I have a 2008 tacoma prerunner with rugged trail tires. I would like to put a little lift in the front for looks. Any suggestions on a possible lift? Bigger tired?

    If you want to keep it cheap you can get Bilstein 5100s from Downsouth Motorsports for like $300 shipped. I would recommend a 265/75/16 or a 285/75/16 tire.

    The 5100s are adjustable up to 2.5" of lift up front

    I used to run that set up and it was a very comfortable ride

    I see you have OME 885x Springs, Light Racing UCAs, Toytec 2" AAL and a 1/4" top plate spacer on your build. Will the bilstein be sufficient for a comfortable ride and a 2.5 inch lift?
