    I don't know that they are actually wider but they seem to be more square cornered than others. Some have a rounded edge from the sidewall to the tread. KO2 is a more pronounced 90°. That seems to be the big difference between the tire brands IMO.

    I finally got around to the diff breather relocation. I ran a stainless steel crank case breather filter to the tuffy box and mounted it next to the compressor.

    Added a couple D-rings to secure extra generator fuel.

    And installed some relentless quickfist mounts for my shovel and axe (hopefully murder spork arrives soon:fingerscrossed:). I was alsoable to secure the maxsa boards to the quickfist mounts. They're secure there but its just temporary until I can figure out somehigh speed stealth mounting for them

    Just my opinion, but I think it invites way too much attention to the front grill. I'd say go black all the way.

    I thought that too since I haven't gotten a lift and wheels yet. I should have saved it until later. maybe just a red Toyota emblem? and the outline black?

    Not to mention the potential for ignition by static electricity. You should remove plastic containers from your car and set them on the ground before you fill them to minimize the chance that static electricity could cause the gasoline in the container to ignite.

    Yea I can see that, just the red emblem would look pretty good. I'd black out the outline though.

    I have an MGM Limited 2016. The paint on the silver trimming just below the power window switches has lost its paint where the left knee rubs on it while driving. How hard is it to remove that trim to refinish it? What is the color code for that paint? Should I have the dealer replace that trim part under warranty?

    Probably going to be tough to get a dealer to replace a part that's been warn due to "improper" use. I would think that your best be might be doing a vinyl wrap on these pieces. If you paint it, it will just wear through again.

    Did some damage to my rear skid... Not an upgrade but still something I did! Those two used to be flush. Going to take the skid off and try bending it back... We shall see. The rattle is driving me nuts. IMG_3434.jpg

    None.
    If you posted before you bought I'd recommend Mobtown. You wouldn't have spent much more and you could have driven up and had them put on. You'd want to support them again too. Never seen a bad word on here about them.
