    I wouldn't stick with those springs.

    Are those extended travel?

    Contractor would never hire me down here. My dad is in the lumber industry and knows everybody and they all just hire illegals from down south for $4 an hour

    because the only option is buying new 14" 2.5ID #650 springs and hope they're not as saggy or buy 16" 2.5ID #650 springs and have to compress before even mounting on c/o which i've thought of just didnt know if its frowned upon.

    Thoughts?

    What about 700 lb springs? 650 shouldnt be saggy esp. with how much you have them cranked...

    thats my issue. I dont either. Not wanting to drop 1400 for new coilovers when i have a set. I would just like less preload. Springs are cheap enough and i can do the swap myself. But im just worried about the 16" spring because itll provide lift on its own at that point then wouldnt have to crank much as it wouldnt need much preload.

    These ride great just want a little more down travel and people shit their pants at the preload.

    right, i see the issue with the 16's. I'd probably try the 14" springs if it was me.

    4800 MSRP for those wheels. Texas has been hit a LOT which is surprising because guns.

    When i worked at Toyota we got hit twice. All the Tundra/Tacoma spares then all the wheels. Was rough.
