3rd Gen Quicksand thread

They the rings suppose to be removed when putting tires on or taking them off?

 

Went on a big trip to death valley over the week. Getting the pictures together now, but for now here are a few.

 

17 inch wheels, the stock rims that come on the sport are also 17 inches

 

I've been looking around for those to try to get a decent price. What size tires and lift you got? Love the way it looks.

 

Got the trd 4runner pro rims directly from toyota for basically a steal i forget the price I would have to check it out again. The tires are Toyo A/T 285/70/R17 and I have a tuff country 3inch lift. Kinda wish I went with BF Goodrich KO2s now I prefer them slightly more.

 

I have those on mine! I have been wanting to take of the "Beadlock" Ring and either plasti dip or powder coat it black, but haven't got to it. Personally I like them, and it allowed me to stick with my stock tires since I was planning on wearing them out before getting real tires haha

 

Debadged and destickered. Looks much cleaner

 

You missed two.

 

looks spot on! then again, I'm pretty biased!

 

Got the lift, wheels/tires on today and fell in love with this thing again!

 

Built mine today out of my daughters Legos since Toyota is taking so long to build it. She was building princess castles and I built my on order quicksand yota!!

 

you should dip that grill....

 

Hahahaha. Will switch it out for the pro grille once they are back in stock at Kingsway Toyota

 

Took the Tacoma as far up this trail as I could yesterday haha. Had to dig it out when I pushed it as much as I could. So I decided to buy some wheels and tires. 265/70r17 General Grabber AT2's on some Method Standards. Hopefully by this weekend!

 

Looks awesome. I see you have 5100s on the 4th notch. I take it they are the 3rd Gen specific 5100s? Also do you have the 1/4 in spacer on both sides or just drivers? Thanks

 

Thanks! 3rd gen 5100s and only drivers side spacer for the lean. At some point, I'll probably do new coils and a longer shock in back but if I do, its more performance related than anything as I really like the look now and the ride feels better than stock which is probably no surprise.

 

I just got my lift a week ago or so. I went with 887s 3rd gen 5100s and a Deaver AAL(not installed yet). I was planing on going with 275s but now I'm rethinking after seeing your 285s. I also have a set of ray10s in my garage waiting for tires. I'm surprised your not getting any rubbing, which was the reason I was planning for 275s.

 

Specs on wheels tires and lift?? Scs wheels?

 

SCS SR8s 16x8 with Dick Cepek Extreme Country 285/75/16. Lift is Bilstein 5100 (notch 4) in front with 1/4" spacer on driver side and Icon progressive AAL (overload removed) in back. Zero rub pre alignment which is actually happening as I write.

 

Looks absolutely sick i was on the fence about those wheels in that color combo and you just confirmed my decision. Killer looking truck man.
