    I joined this forum today to start getting advice on various parts and enhancements to do with our 99 Prerunner. It needs shocks & struts right now, plus I need to fix the cataracts for headlights that we have now. We also own a 98 Mustang GT that I'm fixing up (hee hee hee) so must plan ahead on the budget for these toys.

    Suffering now the second blistered tire and need to do something soon. I have the stock 15" TRD rims with 31 x 10.5 tires. I really want to replace with 16" or even 17" rims for 1st or 2nd gen TRD's. This will allow me to get 265/70/16 or 265/70/17 tires that will be quieter and longer life for the mostly highway driving this truck sees. Anyone have something nearby that I can afford?

    Is there a cold air package to replace the airbox set up for my 99 TRD w/V6? I replaced the airbox in my 98 Mustang GT a couple years ago with a fenderwell intake (by BBK) and am wondering if there is something similar for the 1st gen Tacoma?
