    I have a 19 DC. I want to some what level it. I am choosing spacer as I just can’t see replacing struts/ coil overs at 10k miles. Same path I took with my Tacoma. When they get worn I will replace with 5100’s.
    With that said. I want to keep 275/65/18, maybe go to a 275/70 or a 285/70.I also want to keep a slight rake. Stock is to much rake.
    Help me decide 2.5 front. 1.5 rear. Or. 2” front 1” rear.

    Thank you for your time.

    Can’t help bud. I have 6 inch lift on mine but I have heard to stay away from spacers.

    With either one you could run the 275/70 easily. I will be finding out in a week or two how easy 285/70's will fit ounce my SCS SR8's and Ridge Grappler's get here. I have a 2.5/1.5 with Bilstein 5100's and Toyotech shackles.

    One thing to think about is the price comparison depending on which spacer kit you go with. You are not too far from a complete set of Bilstein's. Saw the 5100 kit under $400 on Amazon. You could get a block for the rear or Toyotech shackles ($220).

    I bought this kit plus 1 extra shim, but didn't need the diff drop or bumpstops since I went middle setting with 2 shims on each side for 2.5" up front:
