    Hi all,
    Total newbie here with a stock suspension on a 2021 SR5 TRD Sport.
    Just added new wheels (20" OEM) and went from a 275/55R20 wheels to a Kanati Trail Hog 275/60R20 123 Q and I get some (expected) rub on the front wheels only with extreme turns.
    Was told to lift the front end a bit to stop this.
    Would like to level the front end but not sure how MUCH in regard to the height (1"..2"..3"..??) to match the rear.

    Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

    Thanks, and Happy Holidays!

    I have 5100’s set at the middle setting. The front is 1.5” lower than the back. I still have the factory tires, but the plan is to go a little bigger in the near future. This site is hard on the wallet lol.

    Welcome from NY.

    Bilstein 5100's on the middle setting.

    Is it rubbing on the little mud flaps on the front. Some have removed them. Other had used a heat gun to melt the plastic fender liner and push it in/away from the tire.

    Any pictures of where it rubs?

    2 inch lift in front levels the truck, just like the TRD Pro model.

    Having the 5100 at middle setting you should definitely not be 1.5in lower in the front. Should just about be about .5in lower. I have the same set up.

    I’ll have to remeasure, it’s possible that I wasn’t able to read a tape measure that day.
