    Hey everyone. I have saved up $1000 to spend on my Tacoma. Double cab 17' OR. I just bought new bfg ko2s. 265/75/16 so I don't need new tires. What would you all think would be best to spend my money on?

    Best,

    Falcon

    Or maybe some lights. So many accessories, and the money goes quick.

    Already got the 401k and ROTH going. I got my truck at 0% interest so I'm not concerned with making extra payments but of course knocking that debt down is a goal. I really want to get a set or scs wheels. I don't have a lift or anything so not sure if stock suspension and ray 10s on my 265/75/16 ko2s will rub anywhere?? I am okay with the stock OR wheels to be honest. They look decent. Ray 10s look amazing though. So I'm leaning towards a lift first and then wheels.

    265, 75 16's won't rub with any rim. So no worries there. Nice truck and good luck with the extra money.

    I would say useful items, like the roof rails if you don’t have them, and a hard tonneau cover.
