wow Ted, I just don't see how you can be running 8" wide wheels over my 7.5", +35 offset over my +45 (which sets your wheels OUT 10mm further), and 245 tires over my 225 (another 10mm), and not scrape more often - OH, you said TRD springs - that's a 1" drop compared to 1 3/4" drop for DF210's and almost 2 1/2" for the Progress; you definitely are not sitting as low in the front... I figure the surface of your sidewalls are sitting 26mm out further than mine, a full inch, they must actually sit outside the wheel well a little!

Looking horizontally, the tops of my front tires are actually tucked under the wheel well lip about a 1/4 inch, and you can barely stick a single finger between the edge of the tire tread and the wheel well liner at the closest point... I also only have about an inch and a half of travel on my shocks before they bottom out, even with the bump stops cut short, so I bottom out real easy if I'm not careful...
