    I'm getting them in 16s! Selling my 17" wheel/tire combo and getting 16s with 285s

    EDIT: the 16s are 8" wide I think.

    They are quite sexy. I like more sidewall personally, hence part of me making the switch.

    Yeah, it'll be tricky. Luckily I've got a decently large local toyota group, so SOMEONE has to want them!

    Took today off, got paid to mod #winning. 1st up were the new drilled & slotted rotors & new ceramic pads. Changed the oil while she was up in the air with her vulnerable underbelly exposed. Sorry, no pics of the oil change, but it was legendary.

    1809.jpg

    Next up were the CaliraisedLED fogs in MojaveMadman mounts, found here:
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...nt-apex-fabworks.440114/page-11#post-12957723
    Did the fog any time mod while I was at it, ridiculously simple.

    Last up was finishing the lower grill mesh to match my upper raptor

    20160805_172149.jpg

    And now I sit here post-shower, beer in hand, enjoying some TW :cheers:
