Re: New tires...do I need a lift?

I recently purchased some Hankook MTs 285/70/17. I was about to install the OME HD springs/shocks, but got worried that my wife would freak out with such a big change in suspension height and handling characteristics. So, I installed a set of 1.5" front spacers, then installed the tires. The tires fit perfectly, with no rubbing anywhere. The stance is more level now. For less than $100 and about an hour of time, it was a great addition to the FJC. I found the spacers on ebay and they are excellent quality and fit. I still plan on installing the OME springs, but will wait until I get the bumper and winch in the spring.
Here is a pic with the 1.5" front spacer lift and the Hankook 285/70/17s.

Is your FJ a 2wd or 4wd? I'm assuming it's a 4wd but want to make sure. Thx!
