    Most parking garages I have been in have that "hey dumbass" bar/pipe hanging at the entrance. If you don't hit it, your good. If you do, park on the street.

    FN BFD's. I love 'em. 18x9 with Toyo AT2's, 285.65.18. A little "hummy", but the stereo takes care of that.

    I witnessed the funniest... or possibly the saddest thing one night. There is a shopping center next to my old apartment and the parking lot has those bars on all exits/entrances except for one. I guess this one dude in a bigass Winnibago took that particular entrance to get into the shopping center.... but took another one to exit and did not notice the bar. His Winnibago just unfolded like a house of cards in the middle of the road. I don't think he was pleased.

    ive got an icon stage 4 with 285s and mine fits in everything above 6'11" with a 4' CB antenna mounted on the bed rail. the only thing other than the antenna that would touch above 6'6" is my RTT on the bed rack.

    Whatever! I haven't had a toy since I was in my 20's and I'm 48. One kid off the payroll and one in college. I've got the supercharger in my sights.

    And, you don't get to say you have effin' wheels. BFD's... That's a whole conversation starter.

    Speaking of antennas. Does anyone here have a short/shorter aftermarket antenna that works good? Judging by Amazon reveiws all of them are crap

    Oh, sorry. Not knocking the rims or cost, they look great. Didn't mean for that to come off as rude. $600 is just more in my price range.

    No worries. I'm having fun. Spent way more on my Tacoma then logic would dictate. I've been logical a long time. I'm in the back half now.

    Clearly lots invested. Icon stage 4 is a fantasy land for me. I also have a silver taco. Pretty much going for an identical look. Just want to add an aluminum front and rear bumper.

    Me too. Frustrating that the TRD OR comes with so much chrome. Got rid of the grill surround, but that back bumper glares at me. I really like the looks of the front end, but the front bumper isn't a bumper. It's just one big piece of plastic.

    I guess the chrome is a reason to upgrade to a metal bumper, or line-x it.

    It should fit with no issues except maybe hitting the antenna which can be easily trimmed without reception loss. I'm running 285's, 2.5" lift plus yakima rack and copperhead bike rack with about 1/2" to spare.
