    Hey, I'm new here so forgive me if I make any mistakes on where I post this.

    I have a 06 4runner sport edition v6. Currently have the following installed.

    Front shocks: ome 9000
    Front coils: one 884
    Rear shocks: 6004
    Rear coils: 895

    Everything else is pretty much stock (I'm working on it). The drivability is much better and off road capability is great, I've even taken it on the dunes and some trails. But if I'm being honest on road comfort has really suffered and thats where it i am 99% of the time. I don't drive around 300 lbs of stuff I'm my truck all the time either.

    Wondering if swapping the rear springs out to something lighter like bilstiens would help? I know ome valves these to match the spring but Im also not driving around with the stated 600 lbs of load its rated for.

    Thoughts? Or any recommendations ?

    ride quality will mostly come from the shock valving, not so much the spring.
