    The 20's you see below were purchased off craigslist and ended up F****** me over also after I dropped the truck they rubbed way too much so yes i am running the same styl rim except brand new and not staggered!

    I started with a 2005 reg cab which I bought as seen it the first pic of it and pretty much used it for parts. Bought the 2008 AC taco from my Dad's company swapped all the painted parts and XII coils and sold the reg cab as a stock looking taco with wheels.
    Now i am riding low but not slow in the 2008 AC Taco
    Current Pic:

    This truck was only temporary because I was waiting for my Dad's shop to give up their extra cab which they finally sold it to me so this upcoming week (3/25/13) Planning on switching the bumpers mirrors and suspension parts onto the extra cab and selling the reg cab. Stay tuned for much more pics of my build it will prolly be a never ending process

    Items on the way: DJM Control Arms w/ balljoints installed, DJM C-Notch, DJM 3 inch blocks (until I order some BEEFED blocks with offset pins

    Ultimate goal is to be 5/6 drop Low and Smooth
    SHOOTZ!!!

    You can run 2 10s just gotta build a box
    I've always had a reg cab truck I was rocking 2 12s
    Haha with the extra cab I planning on building a box for 2 15s or 3 12s
    Yeah my other truck was a v8 which made my foot happy but not my wallet:/
    The 4bangah get some balls but pretty good on gas I'm hoping I can get my rim issue straightened out quick but to be honest I don't mind rocking the stocks for awhile and just slam it on those at least tires are cheap to replace vs. the stance wheels
