Re: Ok, I've got it figured out. Now I just need Advice!

You are absolutely right. I will probably do springs up front, but larger tires are probably not in my near future. After doing some more reading and searching I now understand that bumper/winch + spacers are not the best.

I am going with after market wheels and will stick with 265/75/16R because I am afraid if I go larger on the after market wheels, I will have to end up doing the body mount chop. I don't want to do that. Also, I want to keep my factory rack and if I lift I WILL NOT fit in many of the parking garages I use. Better milage is also a factor. Like I said before, the stock FJ can handle the wheeling I do. It is my daily driver so I want to pay off more of it before I do anything more hard core. Trust me a larger lift is in the future (Poss a 6"?!) I also don't want to spend too much right now because I want to save up for that SUPERCHARGER! Every little bit helps.

Now the question is, what springs to get for this set up. I have used OME in the past and I know they are top notch stuff. Should I get the 884 or 883 springs? I think the 885 might have too much lift for what I want, but I am not sure. More input please! Thanks.
