    Probable a neophyte question, but gonna ask anyway.

    I own a 2018 TRD OR SB auto Tacoma; I would like to get the same curb stance/height as the TRD Pro. As I read, I believe that's about one inch or less. While this is more about appearance than functionality, I'm an off roader, it's not aggressive enough to justify just swapping out my OR suspension for the TRD Pro suspension.

    Research for this minimal change in height, at least for the front, suggests Bilstein adjustable 5100s with my stock springs can easily achieve the additional 1 inch in the front with negligible affect to my existing suspension geometry.

    1. Will the 5100s work just fine or is that just a poor idea?
    2. If the 5100s will work satisfactorily, what do I use to get the one inch in the rear?

    Comments appreciated

    Keep in mind that if you're truly wanting to mimic the TRD Pro stance, the Pro wheels have about ~1/2" less offset (~1" wider stance total) than the OR wheels.
