    Good Morning all

    This will be for my wife's 4Runner. She absolutely loves it. Keep in mind this change is for cosmetics only. She wants it to have a wider stance.
    Installed the 2 inch leveling spacers in the front.
    I was wanting to know if I will get tire rub doing this. A minor amount at full lock is not a big deal.
    Having to cut the front bumper would be a bit much, but i am fully capable of doing it. I told her she may have to lose the mud flaps. She wasn't happy about that.:crazy:

    She is keeping stock wheels and tires. Any info in this would be appreciated prior to ordering the spacers.

    Its possible. Unless someone who has the exact same set-up as you can chime in, its all hearsay. I dont think it will be much of a problem if any. I did a 2" spacer on my Tundra a while back. No lift, stock wheels but 285/85 tires (stock is 275/70) and it rubs pretty good, but I dont care as its my 300k daily. Send it.

    Thanks for the response.
    I believe the rubbing may be negligible with the smaller tires. My F150 rubs with taller and wider tires, but only while locked and in reverse. It was so light I never did anything to prevent it.

    I may order the spacers and see how it does. maybe someone else with a leveled, factory wheels and tires has more input.

    Here's my 2021 SR5 Premium with stock wheels and tires, but with 1.25" spacers installed. There is a very, very slight rub at full lock on the mud flaps - not enough to warrant doing anything about it. I should note that there will be a slight degradation of the ride - it will be slightly harsher. Said another way, you should be fine and your wife should be happy.

    Do you have any photos from the front of the rig? I have a set of spidertrax sitting in the garage waiting to go on when I put the leveling kit on.
