    6 inch Rough Country Vertex Coil Over lift, TRD Dual Exhaust, K&N CAI, Fuel Vector 18x9 +20, Falken Wildpeak AT3w 285/75r18
    on my previous tundra (2010) ran the lifted struts in the front, rough ride because of the spacer that is used. Did what was called a 3/2 lift....3 inches in the front and 2 inches in the rear (block was used in rear and had no issues), but ride is overall rough.
    Currently on the Tundra I have now (2020) I am running the Rough Country Vertex Coil over system. Highly recommend. I have the 6inch lift kit, but they do make it the 4in.
    Ride is way, way better than stock even though truck is lifted 6in.
    Running 35 inch tires with no issues and wheels are a +18 offset, stock wheels are +60 for reference.
    I have had the Vertex kit on my truck for 18 months, and 35k miles with not one issue, used a professional installer and have never needed to tighten or adjust anything so far, not even a wheel alignment.
    Hope this helps

    This is just an spacer lift with UCA. You will be happier with replacement lifted coilovers so I would skip this one.

    6” lift, 35 inch tires, chrome delete, ridiculous stereo
    Agreed. Like buying a lift kit from Walmart. Look into BDS or ready lift

    You could step into something like this and get a dramatically better ride than what you have now for a price point similar to what the mid-tier setup they're offering is.

    As long as you stay at the 2.5" mark that this kit is designed for you should be able to get away with stock UCAs. If you want more height than that we'll have to get arms.
