    Tires are Awesome :)
    Really like the tread design...more aggressive then ATs, but less then MTs.

    Like I said in an earlier post...Tacomas should have come with these stock :)

    The only compromise is a stiffer ride (E rated sidewalls?).

    Got fuel yesterday, 17mpg
    I probably could have gotten better...if I was easier on the skinny pedal.

    Need to bug my buddy about my gear swap :p

    Man, I want the OME 884s but I see everyone getting a lot of kift out of them. I'm also 4 cylinder but in a regular cab. I don't want 3 inches of lift which may be what I get with the 884s. Have they settled any lower?

    Checked my notes, the 884s gave me 2 3/4" of lift on the front.

    I actually picked up another 2.7L access cab last week :)
    Going to try 883s this time around.

    Thanks again Dan@wheelers for taking care of me.
    It is appreciated...honest :)

    That truck is a little confusing to me.. It's got a TRD Sport rear bumper, SR5 Wheels, SR5 Front End(chrome grill no fogs) TRD driver seat, SR5 passenger seat, TRD Off Road sticker...

    Good lookin truck though.

    Does it have a locker?

    Thanks

    My cousin went through the truck thoroughly, and said yes...regarding locker.

    Where would the locker selector switch be located?
    I have a few other interior pics I can review.

    I'm relocating, and won't be able to bring my 06 :(
    I will be able to bring all the 4.88 gear stuff :)
    Sooooo glad I didn't get around having it installed...would have been painful to do twice.

    And yes, before anyone asks...my blue 06 is already sold.

    I just googled it (located above mirror switch on the left side of dash).
    Looks like no e locker...

    It's all good.
    Guess I'll be installing that Detroit (already sitting in a box) after all :)

    Would have been nice If I could have swapped rims/tires :p

    Why did toyota sell these trucks with so much rake?

    Another OME setup going in...this time running 883 front springs.
    Raised the front up 2", witch means no need to touch the rear :)


    Much better now :)

    Love the new ride, the rear sits about 1" taller then the front.

    Cooper Maxx and Gears are all that remain...once I get her back from Toyota, Don't ask :(

    Thank you sir :)

    How she sits today...only change are new tires.

    20160223_090907_zpso4no12kf_697e3a76b6a3495dd72790843e88584e2ee8a336.jpg

    Settled on KM2s, as Coopers were not available in my area.
    Love the instant height you get, when you jump to 33s :)

    Hope to have gears in a month or 2...honestly not too bad with 4.10s and a 5spd.
