    Anybody else think those Predator Steps will just end up getting hung-up on something going offroad? Doesn't make sense to me that you'd want something hanging down if you plan to take it off road but I haven't seen in person so not sure

    I'm with you on that. I personally don't like them but a lot of guys seem too. All in all I wouldn't be crapped out if they were on the truck.

    I'd opt for the regular black tube steps or some aftermarket sliders. For those in AZ, there is a guy just west of downtown Phoenix who does some really nice and affordable fab work -- worth checking into Randy Ellis Design if you're in the area

    hahha - I think the same thing every time I see something else. I told myself that "this time" I may just level the
    front end(depending on what I see in 2 weeks when mine arrives) and just go with a beefier tire but it's never
    worked out that way so I don't see why this time will be any different.

    @Letsgoplaces - Do you know what the max tire size is for those? Are they 16's pictured above?

    That white one looks good! Sure does look level already in that pic.

    Yeah they only come in 16" unfortunatley. The TRD Pro wheel comes in a 17" but complete different style.

    Nice. The taco's do look good to me with smaller wheels and more side-wall showing.

    Just checked with the dealership I'm working with and he stated that...
    - it may be different lug nuts and TPMS needed. He's not sure, still checking.

    Can anyone confirm?

    Once the lifted spindles were installed the track width became larger placing the front tires out wider than factory.
    The rear end was narrower and trailed differently at highway speeds making the vehicle unstable specifically when in long sweeping turns such as a freeway exchange overpass.

    1.25" Spacers corrected the issue and the truck has since returned to expected safe operating conditions . . .

    Y'all are talking about two different types of spacers. Though they both have one thing in common, the suckness.

    How's the backspacing on those TRD Sema wheels? Do they match up with the trim?
