Well my new LC250 will arrive in a few weeks and I was hoping to install OME BP51, (yes the stock setup is nice)
Unfortunately… I just got out of a chat with ARB/OME and was told that the LC250 OME BP51 (releasing in Mid June) will be 3” Lift only. Allegedly this decision was based on feedback from SEMA attendance ☹

Anyone running 0-2” remote res setups? I was really looking forward to the OME setup so I can have a nice tight street ride and soften it up offroad.

yea they would be my 2nd choice on the list, haven't hear much about their remote res setup though
From experience, I can tell you how very pleased I’ve been with their suspension components. I had the 2.5” mrr adjustable on my 200 and loved it and am currently running a 2” on my 80 and am equally as impressed. I don’t *love any of the Ironman suspension products I have had on my wagons, so I won’t recommend any of those, but I can give you what I’ve gotten to this point on the Dobinson’s and my happiness with earlier generations of OME’s.

Just my .02

I want a nice no body roll, on the street. That ways my passenger seat
I’ll second the Dobbys as a solid choice. Ive loved mine on my Tacoma. Dobinson has progressive valving as well so it’ll ride similar.
Thanks Roven
Can you adjust them to ride nice on road (gotta keep the wife happy)
I know they will do great off-road as will many other options

Now the hard part, sexy red or classic teal….

Yeah, some of the adjustments I made on them took some trial and error to get them just how I wanted but the adjustments are wide-ranging and can be closely tuned to what your preferences are.
 
Sounds curious, because a 3" lift will imply a cascade of modifications it will be also more complicated to register the car so it will be street legal.
exactly yes, CV angles, panhard modifications, ETC
Sounds like they are catering to the deep pocket swag lords of the overland influencer universe.
