Seem that you cant really go wrong with either tire. Is the only reason you say to keep away from coil spacers is to avoid driveline issues? i was adding them because i was reading some people were getting a little rub with there 2.5" coil lift thought that might clear it up a bit. how much is the avrage 2dr getting form thier tera 2.5 coil lift.

You could skip the coil spacer and go with a 1" BL

See what the TF lifts gets ya and add the BL after if you need more.

I just installed a TF 2.5 coil lift, I got a adjustable rear track bar as I didn't want to drill the existing braket. I think on the 2 dr models you can have rear driveshaft issue if you go to high, drive shaft is to short. Someone can correct this if I'm wrong. Also did the km2 with a 15 inch wheel, love the wheels look. Have not had a chance to wheel it yet but it looks great.
