Aww.. not that bad, man. For $800 a set, it give plenty of performance per dollar.

If its a daily just get lowering springs and call it a day. Theres great springs that offer a 1" drop. I would personally recommend RCE Yellows other options are TRD, Hotchkis, and Eibach Pro-Kit.

I would suggest going with a 225/45/17 on 17x8 +45 wheels. They will fit without rubbing, look great, and are a common size. (cost less)

A 235/40/17 will fit on a 17x8, but they are very rare. ...

Yes that will fit stock suspension and it will poke in the front. Also, you should consider a 225/40/18 or a 245/35/18 tire. A 245/40 is way to large of a tire.
