    Fuel Off Road Wheels. I would say if your not lifting it right away drive it for now. Looks great! I waited till i hit 42000 miles on mine. Wish i wouldve done it earlier though. Truck rides and drives awesome now. And get lots of looks too :D I say do what you want. If ya got some extra green get some BIGGER tires!

    Don't worry about the Dunlops being around for long....I have a 2010 sequoia and the Dunlops are pretty much toast at 34,000 miles.

    Keep the tires. I think it actually looks pretty good as is. No one will give you $hit for used tires.

    Kyle,

    How to do like the Base?

    I recently lost out on a DCSB Sr5 Spruce Mica. They sold it a few hours before I got there to buy it.

    There is now ZERO DCSB Tacoma's here in BC.

    I was thinking of waiting for a 2013, but I am also thinking they will likely be trying to unload a 2012 for a lower price.

    Since there are no SR5 models left in BC, and the TRD is a little to rich for my blood, I was thinking about a base.

    I love some of the options the SR5 has, but most can easily be put onto the base (LED tails, Intermittant wipers, fog lights). The only thing I would miss is the compass/temp/rearview cam and towing package.

    Are you even unhappy you didn't go with an SR5?

    Also, great choice on colour/options.

    I love the base with black/black and the 2 options I would get are roof rack and skid plate.

    I didn't know you could buy P rated tires in BFG TA's. Accordingly to their website, they are LT type with mostly E ratings.

    Ya, I had those on my truck for approx. a month (E rated tires). I couldn't wait to get them off. They rode like crap for me but some people are happy with them. If you like to have a little more ground clearance, I put the 265/75/16 on.
