I'm loving the setup so far - the wider tires feel a lot more planted, and the suspension is more firm but not harsh at all - just more planted. Totally with the money invested. As far as rubbing goes, I did trim the black aero thing that deflects air from in front of the front tires. Other than...

Tasteful poke, no rub.
Installed an Old Man Emu Standard lift with Motegi Trailites wrapped in 285/70/17 Cooper discoverer at3 xlt. Gotta take it out on some dirt roads and trails this weekend to see how it handles the bumps. So far so good!

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but OP - which wheels did you end up going with?
The wheels in your avatar look a lot like 4runner Off-road wheels, but they could just be a look-a-like..
Anyways - if you could provide specs and some pics that would be awesome - thanks!
Wanted to chime in and echo what others have said. I have a 2021 XLT FX4 and I feel like its a good combination of features and price. My choices at the time were my XLT FX4, or a fully loaded Lariat tremor with almost every accessory option that had it just shy of 50k (decals, bed cover...

Thanks for easing my mind a bit! I'm going to call a couple of other dealers in the area to see if any of them will be more knowledgeable on the tune. Thanks!
