    Saw this posted by @AccuTune Offroad in another thread, and think it should answer some of your questions. As stated in the original post, while this was made with a Tacoma, the same results will occur with Tundras

    EDIT:
    I would roll with Bilsteins, and if you have the coin to drop, do the Bilstein 6112/5160 combo. They seem to keep everyone very happy, just a more heavy duty adjustable coilover than the 5100s.

    Good Luck!

    What about shackles is this required when using a Bilstein Combo?

    Nothing is required, it’s all about what you like. Check out the thread I linked above, you can see how everything looks with different lift heights in the front paired with shackles or expansion packs or just stock in the Really whatever you want.

    here is the chart for the 6112s so you know how much lift you can get. After that is a matter of preference if you want rake or no rake
