Hey guys I got a question for ya. First off I have searched and if I missed it please post link. I am about to head off to college and need save money, but still want to lift my 99 2wd runner. I am looking to put 33's (A/T's) on my 15x10.5 wheels. I guess lift wise to go with the SS #3 kit (I think that is what you guys recommend). The lift is mainly for looks, but tire wise I was thinking buyings some used ones. I live in Santa Cruz California, just so ya know, and my 31x10.5x15 BFG A/T's have about 4k mi on them so I plan to sell them to help with the cost. So selling the 31's, buying the kit, and used 33's, total would be around....? 500? Roughly? Thanks for all your help and information!

I just ordered new 99 springs for $270 from conicelli toyota. The part numbers are:
rear springs (Part#48231-35210) you'll need 2 of these.
front left spring (Part#48131-35350)
front right spring (Part#48131-35400)

I'm about to order shocks from ebay. Shocks run $285 for bilstein to $210 for kyb monomax and tokico to $130 for monroe.

You could then buy some Kumho A/T 265/75/16 for under $100 each. Avoid used tires. Also, 33's will probably require more lift such as the SS # 7.1

Good luck

 

order from Japan through me through yotatech PM and it will cost you a $0 dollar deposit with a $59 loan with 47.889% creative APY/XZ for you...

 

Thanks John. Ill look into what you said, although my heart was kinda set on 33's lol.

 

See this is the sort of stuff that we are talking about.....way off topic, cluttering up peoples threads who have legitimate questions.

 

X 2

 

Keep in mind 33's will require a regear for proper torque/powerband/highway speed. that will run you about $500 installed (or so).

I thought I could get by without it, but it sucks.

 

its bunta, you can only expect this sort of stuff from him..

bay-is your 2wd a auto or manual, if auto your def gonna need a regear, if manual then i would still say regear to up to 33's...just a forewarning.

 

He could be....high...lol.







Disclaimer: I do not actually know if he is high or not, it was merely a guess.

 

I don't see how you are going to sell a used set of tires, purchase a new set along with one of the SS lift kits and manage to only pay a $500 difference? What do you figure you can get for your tires?
