All Pro Off Road lift w/Pro Comp wheel/tire

I installed the coilover lift last week and picked up the wheels/tires today. Pro Comp 16x8 alloys on Pro Comp 285/75/16 mud terrains. I thought they would never get here (on order for a month).

The ride up front is a little stiffer, I dont notice a change in the rear. Overall I like the ride better now. It soaks up the bigger stuff and tracks better. The familiar hum of the MTs is nice.

I like it alot.

Re: All Pro Off Road lift w/Pro Comp wheel/tire

N2mud - I ordered the All-Pro lift myself. Which version did you go with?
Fully adjustable w/ reservoir or ?????

Also, which Pro Comp 16 x 8's did you buy? I'm curious about the caliper clearance issues.

Thanks!

Nice skins - what are your thought on the TRD exhaust? I was concerned about that low crossover point making it the lowest part of the rig. How does it sound?

Re: All Pro Off Road lift w/Pro Comp wheel/tire

I went with the fully adjustable w/ reservoir. The Pro Comps are the 8023's, link below. They just barely clear the brakes. I thought for sure they were going to hit.

I tried to get my pics on the original thread, but it was beyond my skill level.

The TRD was an easy bolt on. It bolts on cat back so the crazy crossover is still hanging. I didn't notice any performance change. It looks and sounds great, but you do hear it all the time.

Re: All Pro Off Road lift w/Pro Comp wheel/tire

N2mud,
Could you do me a big favor and measure from the top of the rack to the ground? I am considering the same coilovers and some 33's, but the garage height is limited. What do you have the coils set at, 3" lift? And, yes, I know some heights are listed on the forum, as I did search, but not with this exact set up. Thanks!

Highest point of the rack is 79 3/4" ish. The coils are up just under 3".

That pt cruiser thing kinda soured that for me...it had to go. So did the camry logo on the other side.

The spacers came with the kit from All Pro. The are the Daystar 2" spacers.
