My truck looks pissed!!!

nd · 03-18-2008, 09:37 AM

I just got the 5100's put on the front, and 4 BFG AT's all around. the tires are 265/75/16 and ride great and look much more aggressive than those worthless rugged trails. The stance is much more aggressive looking and the ride is great.

For anyone interested i set my 5100's on 2.5 and it perfectly leveled out my truck with the TSB in the back. in fact, the back end is maybe still a quarter inch higher than the front. If you have the I4 then it may not be heavy enough and 2.5 may be too high.

I am waiting to hear back about some black steelies i was looking at while at the tire place. at discount tire this is "tire and rim" month so you get hooked up if you buy both. i'm starting to have second thoughts about the rims though. I want black steelies but i'm just worried about aftermarket rims fitting on the taco. any thoughts?

i definately recomend the 5100's. i may try to get some of my raked look back by getting a big brush guard for the front so it will sag a little bit

i hate the mod bug.....

I'll post pics after she's clean and possibly wearing new rims

Let's see some dirty pics. You know how we roll around here.

Oh and your truck looks pissed because it has to live in South Caroline and be driven around by a redneck.

yeah you're were right. i had alot of people tell me that 2.5 would be too high without blocks or some extra lift in teh back. actually you're the only one that said it would work. i took it to my buddies shop where it was level and jacked up the front exactly 2.5 inches to look at it and it looked level. then with the weight of the front end i think it sits just a hair below 2.5 so it looks good. Thanks for the advice Rick

I went with Toyota rims, there were the same price as the local guy and he could not say if his would fit, get this, if they did not fit he was going to charge me a 10 % re-stocking fee.
