    If I am understanding correctly, it sounds a lot like running 17x8.5s with 4.3" BS and 285s should clear with these.

    Is anyone running this configuration? Is it clearing? I know there is a lot of variation on these trucks, maybe I should ask has anyone had clearance issues with the aforementioned combo?

    That is the exact setup I am running and have zero clearance issues. Fully flexed out I can still fit my fingers between the shock body and tire.

    Specifically 17x8.5 4.3" BS SCS Ray 10s and 285/70r17 Duratracs.

    All of them.
    Did anyone ever find a Bilstien shock that will work with these mounts? I'm to lazy to go page by page to find out.

    For 7100s, start with the 255/80 valving and revalve from there.

    I'd say it would be close, but you'd probably need a small wheel spacer like 3/4"

    I run 285/75r17 on 7.5 wide and I believe they are 4.75 bs (sequoia wheels) and 1.25" spacers. Plenty of room for activities.

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    Do you even "NEED" the spacers? Have you ever tried that setup without the spacers?

    I don't "need" all of the 1.25" spacers to clear, but I HAVE to run them to clear in the front so it was just as easy to get 2 pair of spidertrax instead of 1 of them and 1 pair of 3/4" bora.
