What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Those are "Factory" on some of the Gulf States Toyota models.

Toyota does some funky things in that part of the country... all kinds of oddball options packages and standard equipment that's not available elsewhere.

 

I believe they are Toyota wheels...offered as an option on Tacoma and 4Runner a few years back...made by BBS?

 

Correct.

My new 2012 is through "South East Toyota"...and has tinted drivers/front passenger windows...and 3M clear guard in several places...as well as paint protect/fabric protect...

all done by South East Toyota. Not the dealership.

Thanks for the info guys. I always liked those old 5 spoke American or Krager Mags, but they were not available for a 6 lugger.

This "6 spoke wheel" is the closest wheel in design to that wheel ... looks kinda like a late model Dodge (wash my mouth out with soap ) polished aluminum wheel too.

I solved a creaking sound in the body panels when the front passenger door opened. it developed over the last year. Now my truck is quiet like it's brand new again. I plan to write up my procedure. very easy to do.

 

Those are some Gulf States oem thangs that came on SR5's back in 2008. Not sure what all else they showed up on. They are 16x7, 5.25 bs, 30mm offset. The new ones are 16x8, 4.50 bs, 0 offset.

 

Yeah, saw your post in a black wheel thread about them. Tried for a ss option but was told there was no option. Saw somewhere in my internet travels that there was on some site for 7.00 extra a wheel. I'll wear them for now but I do like how yours looks without any so they'll go as soon as they turn to shit........

 

I had those on my 06 prerunner

 

I have them on my 08 sr5. Pm me and I will keep you posted if you end up wanting to buy them when I get new wheels.

 

That looks awesome, something a little different

 

This my almost finished bed setup.

 

Oil, filter, lube zerks. Running great at 37,000

 

Just put in my weather techs and now I'm sitting at the tire shop waiting on these wheels and tires to be installed. Didn't realize they were gonna require special lugs so taking longer than expected since they have to go pickup.

 

man...your truck is gonna look sweet with those wheels.

 

... ^^^ ... Thanks ...

Yesterday I installed the 3" OME lift kit from ToyTec, 885 springs pre-assembled with top plate spacers and driver side spacer, TSB AAL, 3 degree shim, carrier bearing drop and front diff drop kit. I also installed their u-bolt flip kit and sway bar relocation kit. Hub to fender is 24 3/8" up front and 24 1/2" in the rear with an empty gas tank. No vibes and everything went on fairly easily up front, AAL install sucked. If I had to do again, I would have purchased the leaf pack. Here is a crappy cell phone pic.

 

24 3/8" up front ? That's a lot more than 3" of lift , no ? How do the CV angles look ?

 

Im at 22.5 with eibach coils wrapped around 5100s at .85

 

Exactly , that's 2 1/2" of lift +/-

 

Finally got my onboard water system for camping finished. Details in this thread if anyone gives a flying flock- http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/2nd-gen-tacomas/215548-board-water-2.html#post5392853
