    Hello 1st gen'rs

    Is there any positives to lifting our trees 2 or 3" if we're NOT off roading? I've got a 2002 SR5 RWD needing new suspension. My research indicates Bilstein 4600 are excellent for a daily driver; but can't help wonder if I'd better enjoy a taller ride.

    Thanks

    No positives, only negatives.

    Higher center of gravity, worse gas mileage, your tires are gonna look small so you will replace them and prolly the wheels, more potential stress on your front end, plus the initial cost of the shocks and new alignment. To name a few I'm sure there is more.
