    I have bilstein 5100’s all around and want to get rear lift springs. Do the OME 895 springs fit on 5th gen 4Runners? If not then what OME spring do y’all run with bilstein’s.

    How much is your front lifted with the 5100's? Usually people lift their rear an inch less than the front. I'd imagine you want to stay away from those OME's since they're probably tall and stiff, and instead go with something like the Bilstein 1" lift spring, or the Eibach 1" lift spring.

    I’m upgrading the front springs to 885 ome which will give me roughly 2.5 of lift in the front. That’s why I want to get new rear springs. That’s why I am trying to see if the 895’s fit in the rear.

    Right on. The only thing I can suggest is check out the specs for the 5100 and don't lift more than they are built for. I don't know much about the OME springs.. sorry. Good luck!

    I’m not running Bilstein shocks, but am running OME 884’s up front. Gave me 2.5” of lift. Tried OME 896 in the rear, didn’t like them 2.5 - 3” of lift but way to stiff. Replace those with 1” spacer on stock springs. As advertised lift, OK ride. Ditched the spacer setup for 1” lift Bilstein springs. Nicer ride about the same amount of lift as the spacer setup. Sits fairly level. On road ride is good, definitely have to air down to play in southern Utah.
