    I've done that in the past. Messy and far from ideal. Doing that I have also had the oil filter just start tearing instead of rotating, it makes it really exciting if it is the only vehicle available. Certainly isn't an issue when I put them on.

    Installed the Gasshole today
    (heard about the screws being tough to remove, mine came right out)
    Pay no mind to the dirt. Once it warms up more, I'll be detailing the entire truck.

    This is my first mod post since being a Tacoma owner for about a month or so. Had my original chrome OEM surround painted color match black and went with a non OEM Pro grill. Surprisingly, the fit was perfect. The lighting makes the top of the surround look a little uneven, but it's not. The skid plate was originally off-white and I had that powder coated black.

    I'm happy so far.

    Yeah. 17" and larger. You could maybe make it work with a 16", but you'd need a hell of a spacer or super low back spacing.

    You did a horrendous job of covering up your license plate. Now ALL the internet stalkers will find you.

    Yes. The truck originally had 285s when i bought it (no rubbing back then either). Put 265s on for the mpgs. Figured it was time for a change. Appointment for the alignment was sooner than the appointment at the tire shop, and it was the only day and time I, along with both shops had availability. I just told the alignment tech to crank the caster up as far as he could while staying within good numbers for camber. Tires fit with no problem.
