    Hello all,

    I took my newly modified truck to a local business parking garage for some photos, and these are a few of the best shots I got. I just got my truck last Saturday, and I have nothing but great things to say. She was bone stock from CarMax when I got her.

    Since then I've added the Ultra Type 164 16x8, wrapped in BFG 285/75's, added 1.25" spidertrax spacers, and installed the Pro Comp leveling kit w/o using the diff drop. This is a temporary lift until I fully save up for my OME kit, which I hope to have installed by the end of May.

    Plans for the truck include a Bestop Supertop, OME lift, BHLM, Satoshi Grill, Roof Rack, Demello Offroad bumpers and sliders, CB Radio, and Icon UCA's.

    Thanks for looking! :D

    10 Minutes after purchase!

    Thank you! Every car is different to photograph, it usually takes me a half hour or so you find the best angles and styles, but I think the Tacoma looks good from any angle! haha

    Thanks! Yes, I had to trim quite a bit around the inside of the fender flares and the bottom of wheel wells, but I still rub on the cab mount. I think the OME lift will take care of that. Until then, I'm making 3 point turns to park and 5 point turns to make U-turns :D

    They are 4000k HID's with 35w ballasts. Just a drop in kit.

    I'm a bit scared to take her off road with only the Pro Comp spacer lift...if anything, just some mild dirt road fun. After I install the OME lift, you wont be able to find me on pavement :D

    And I'm stuck on the mudflaps...I like the 4x4 but they're useless now since my tires stick out further. I'll try taking them off and see how I like them.

    Yes thanks. I read a writeup on the Spidertrax spacers by a team of engineers and how the factory wheels are more likely to break than the spacers. That put my mind at ease, and I went for them instead of selling a sweet set of new wheels.

    Haha I bet! I already can't stand them...It rides worse than my old GTI on lowered coilovers...

    And I've done my fair share of wheelin', just never in the Taco ;) I can't wait though!
