    Hello everyone... my wife and I have purchased our first 2014 Toyota Tacoma, and so far we love it, so I look forward to talking with some of you about upgrades, problems, and all other Tacoma questions, as I am just getting started on the slow process of personalizing it to our liking...

    I've done the searches and to be honest, get tiring reading thru all the the replies and not really getting what I'm looking for, so I'm gonna be "that guy" and ask once again...

    What I would like from as many Tacoma owners as possible is... a picture of their trucks showing their aftermarket/factory rims and tires. A quick reply stating rim and tire size, what offset the rims are, brand of tire and preferably stock suspension as I haven't decided on a mild lift or not, im ok wth a bit of trimming, but don't want to rub... Basically I'm looking for a good looking combination for our truck and pictures say a thousand words.

    Those wheels look awesome on your truck. I always thought I'd stay stock with my wheels but ones like that have me thinking twice. Maybe someday
