New to the GX platform, less than a week in, new. Picked up a pretty clean Cypress Pearl '07. It needed tires anyway so first order of business was wheels/tires. I was looking aroudn for some factory 17" Tacoma take-offs but landed on a really goo deal on some 2025 Tacoma Trail hunter 18's that I couldn't turn down. 18x8.5s with +20mm offset, wearing factroy GoodYear Wrangler Territory RTs in 265/70/18. I did have to use a spacer/hub adapter, but I think they look pretty good all in all. They are a tight fit, and I get some liner rubbing though, not a big deal to me, but, gives me an excuse to go ahead and knock out a lift ahead of schedule.

Factory air is still installed in the rear, albeit with newer bags. I'm leaning towarsd teh Bilstein/OME kit from Yotamafia with "medium duty" coils for that 2-2.5" lift. What else am I opening myself up to NEEDING to do that I'm not thinking about here?

-Extending brake lines?
-Replacing UCAs?
-Replacing CVs?

Or am I really good to just grab this "kit," slap it in and ride for a while?

Are there any better bang for the buck ways to grab another 2-2.5"? This is more or less a road daily with occasional light off-road use, nothing major.... for now.

Thanks
