only problem w/ the is300's was centerbore. but they sat in too far for my taste, so two bird with a 1" adapter.

i was thinking about running spacers and these rims do sit in too far. but didn't want to until after the drop to see how they looked on there.

centerbore of these rims were a couple cm's too small to fit over hub so i sanded them down, then this nut wanted to screw my plans in the ass.

and running outside now to try to find them bolt heads to cut down now. cable thanks for the info cuz i didn't want to drop a whad of cash on my yota yet. i just knew there was a way to solve this problem without buying spindles. but def in the future spindles will be on this beeeotch

but i am going to go get some drop blocks by this weekend. does 3'' block s, removing middle leaf spring and turn down torsion bars sound ok?

thanks for the info and not flaming my ass....

truthfully if you seen my sig on IA thats what your looking for as far as 3" and removed spring..i'd say do 4" blocks and removed spring, thats my next move

Is it hitting the bolts or the ball joint? If its just hitting the ball joint, cutting the bolts wont do anything for you.

the front rims was hitting the nut that was sitting on top of the ball joint. the one in the pic. i was looking at the bolts yesterday and i am completely clueless about which bolts cable was talking bout. so i plan to just get some spacers and hopefully that will help my rims to clear those nuts till i get some spindles.
now i just need to know how to adjust torsion bars and where/how to install the drop blocks till i get them spindles.
maybe i am getting in over my head. but you guys got some pretty sick rides that keep inspiring me.

i think personally you need some different rims and get rid of what you have..

Try out some spacers, you can get em at about any automotive supply store...they are fairly cheap. Blocks are simple to do and the torsion bars arent that big of a deal either...

i wish i could say the same about torsions, i caught the devil tryna do mine, couldnt get it broke loose. used air gun and wd-40'd it. but some pples are easier, hopefully youll find the same joy lol

the ones I was talking about are on the bottom of the control arm,if your balljoints are hitting you prob.need different wheels.I would think that drop spindles would put the upper ball joint closer to the center of the wheel.drop spindles might be the best route if you insist on running those wheels.

Aftermarket Auto zone balljoints are flat up top so it'll clear the rim. I had the same problem with 16's
