275/70r18 Kenda Klever Rt. Took some weight to balance and there’s still a little steering wheel wobble at freeway speeds but I’ll get them rebalanced in a few thousand miles to see if that goes away.

Like I said, us normal guys will probably never notice what he told me. And I’m sure it’s still way better than stock. I actually threw some fox 2.0 smooth body rear shocks on about a week ago and the whole truck feels soo much better. I’m pretty convinced the factory struts aren’t as bad as...

That is by far the least rake I’ve seen on any unmodified ‘21. Looks good!

You must travel? That foliage doesn’t exactly scream snow climate. ?

First thing I always do is go to the “Contact Us” page. If they don’t at least have a domestic address/number, I’m out.

So I was on the 2015+ kits are all the same bandwagon for a while but had a conversation with a suspension vendor this week that has changed my mind. Apparently while the older kits will physically fit a 21+, the geometry is different enough that they aren’t valved correctly. The term I was told...

I wanted to clarify this, given this was a thread about Kings. Icon has specific 2021 coilovers and Kings are custom ordered so they will both be sprung/valved for a 2021. I was referring to the other brands that either don’t have a 2021 coilover or blanket list 2015+ as working. Apparently Fox...

I know this is a little out of date from the OP. But I talked to a vendor this week and Kings are now 44 weeks out. :eek:o_O I also heard they while the 2020 and earlier lifts/coilovers physically fit, due to the new geometry, are valved and sprung wrong for 21+ trucks and aren’t going to give...

@Larryfl1 you’re not really giving us much to go on here. Do you dislike the way you’re current wheels look? What do you expect a new tire to do better? What type of climate do you live in? Do you want bigger and/or more aggressive tires? How much performance/comfort are you willing to...

You don’t really ever run LT tires at max pressure. Or even half that in some cases. The higher the load rating the stiffer then tire to allow for higher pressures and heavier loads. In reality you might run a higher load range tire at a lower pressure than a lower load range. This is...

They didn’t mention it in that article and I haven’t tried rock mode, but I read somewhere that it’ll apply brakes to the front tire that slips to make it kinda like a limited slip. Sort of like Toyota’s A-Trac system.

I’m really leaning toward a threaded body coilover after hearing all this. I don’t want to have to mess around a bunch to get the height I want. Especially when you take into account springs settling. I’m probably going for the Firestone lifetime alignment too.

I don’t recall seeing any when I went through this thread……..is anyone running 33x12.50r18 on the stock wheels?

That’s the first I’ve heard of the engine options having different struts. So if you install factory 3.5EB struts on a 5.0 you should get 3/4” of lift? That’s really going to throw off the charts for adjustable clip style strut replacements. :oops:

Here’s my take…. a) actually 33.5x10.6, stupid expensive at $400/tire B) actually 34.8x11.2, still about $350/tire C) Bfg is 33.2x11, Falken is 33.4x11, both reasonably priced at $275-300/tire My opinion- 17” wheels(more tire options,lower cost all around, more sidewall for off-road and in my...

I’m super jealous of you guys that can run 17s.

If you have an FX4 or Tremor you kinda can.

So on my Tacoma there was a method I used of assembling the strut in the truck and basically using the LCA and a floor jack. This compressed the coil spring in place and pushed the rod up through the already in place top hat. Then you just throw the nut on and your strut is assembled. I’m not...

I’m with you. I read on some other model trucks guys are getting as much as 1/2” of settling. I don’t want a 2” kit to settle at 1.5”. But I also don’t want a 3” kit that holds true to 3”. Reading over at Tacomaworld, guys are getting them with very little or no preload out of the box. So I’m...

I’m looking hard at these Vertex coilovers too. I planned on doing a Bilstein 6112/5160 setup because I’ve had good luck in the past with the 6112s. It’s a pretty tried and true combo that seems to punch above its price point. Now the Vertex on the other hand is coming in way below it’s...
