Auto Spring 2.5 offset spacer lift install with 35/12.50 on stock wheels

[Badmothertrucker]

So I got my auto spring 2.5 lift yesterday with Yokohama Geolander G003 MT’s and couldn’t be happier. Suspension feels 100%, no loss of cushioning, new tires feel great with minimal road noise, very happy with how they ride and look.
The pics aren’t the best because I had an 8:00 am LineX appt and was on a time crunch but I will get better pics up once I wash over the weekend.

The Auto Spring 35” Yokohama tire combo on stock wheels is a winner! No rubbing at all that I experienced and clearance seems plenty. No issues with cameras, hands free blue cruise, sensors, everything is good. I believe the speedometer is off approximately 2-3 miles per hour as the Waze mph was 2-3 faster than the dash mph.

I would like to get them to stick out an inch or two if possible for a more aggressive look if I can do that, I don’t know but if anyone knows, please share as I would like to do asap.

Here’s a few pics.

Looks good sir! Got any straight on pics of the side? Curious to know if I can see the diff between 2.5" and 2.3". Im pretty sure I cant, but just wanted to see the rake.

Looks killer, the stock wheels look so good with new tires on them.

Long day again but I snapped one side view and a couple others before taking the kids to practices.

Looks great! Did you happen to do before and after measurements?

 

[Fozzy]

I haven't ran a MT in years, but you and TX13 make me want these tires so bad.

 

[white_dc]

Love it man. I actually think yours looks like less rake with the 0.2” taller kit!

How's the road noise and MPG?

 

[PaulBlartMallCrawler]

Fucking nice.

How wide are those tires?

Edit: oh my God it's in the thread title


Guess that answers my question about fitting 12.5" width on our stock 7.5" wide rims

I was concerned about tire noise because my family of 5 takes road trips and the warden complained about my exhaust noise just time and I have both added a black widow exhaust/ deleted resonater and added 35 MT’s and it’s still nowhere near as noisy as my 21 4 Runner, so the tire noise is minimal. Get ‘em!

Here are after, didn’t get before but you can compare to stick measurements that are on here.

Yep, every lil bit helps.

Yes sir, success!

Road noise is minimal, I’m very happy with how quiet they are for MT’s. My fuel mileage is not a good indicator since I have the car idling often for work or at practices and it really skews MPG’s. For instance I was averaging 15.5 on new tank of gas then idled for an hour and it dropped to 11.2. As others have said maybe costs you 1-2 mpg on average per gallon.

Truck looks great. Where did you find the hood bug shield? I can't seem to find one that fits my 2021 F150 Oxford White Tremor

Awesome, looking forward to your build!

Unfortunately it was not the proper fit. I made AVS aware and received a refund. At this time no one makes one that fits the Tremor hood that I’m aware of.

Truck looks great! I see on Yokohama’s website that they offer 2 variations of the 35x12.5 R18. Did you get the 123Q or the 128Q? It appears that the 128Q is 0.1” larger but offer a slightly larger load/psi. Just curious where you bought yours also. Again, love the look of both the level and tires! Plus I don’t want different rims. The stock ones look great!

Thanks, I’m really happy with it. So I’m out of town but looked at my camera roll and believe mine is the 123Q. I bought mine from a shop called Team Extreme in Rollesville NC.
