Question Rub on this!

I have finally ordered all the bits to lift my 99 4Runner "Highlander". I have ordered the 285/75R16 Bridgestone Dueler Revos, the Front lift will be Sway-A-Ways and in the rear I will be going with the Downey/Bilstein 3.5" kit (which supposedly will give me 2.5" or so)

I really like the stock 16" 5 spoke Sport wheels that are on my truck now and I will be mounting the new tires on them. Has anyone run a similar combo? How do you like it? And most importantly have you experienced any tire rubbing with the revos?

Does anyone have any pics of this tire/wheel/lift combo? I am getting anxious waiting for everything to come in. TIA!

i got the SAW and OME combo, so im prob at least 1/2" higher in the rear than youll be. but i got 285s, and yes i rub a little bit. i hit the frame on the drivers side at full left turn. i rub the upper a-arms at full droop. i rub the rear fenders at full stuff. nothing to get your panties in a wad about tho.

EDIT: look on my webpage for pics, heres a teaser:

That is a really nice looking ride Ryan! Thanks for the info. I was really close to going with the mud terrain tires you have, but I just couldn't justify it with the amount of highway my truck sees.

What is the total height (to the roof) of your truck with the lift and tires on it? Do you have any garage fitting issues? and what kind of milage do you get?

Thanks

thanks for the compliments

I can fit into 7' clearances (by about 3"), but dunno the actual height. I got the MTs and i tons of highway miles. theyre doin great so far. i get about 13-15 mpg city, 17-20 hwy.
