    The difference between the 887 and 888 springs from ome is, the 888’s will sit 5mm taller than the 887’s. To put that into perspective, 5mm is about the same thickness as 3 nickels. Also, if you’re not wanting to do a cab mount chop, I’d get adjustable uca’s (mine are spc). That way you can set the caster at about +3. My next set of tires will be 285’s. Everyone said to just go with 285’s right from the start, but ofcourse I didn’t listen. The 285’s will probably only rub when the wheel is turned all the way and the surface is uneven.

    Ahh - tough decisions. I have a pretty good drive to school every day. ~60 miles each way. I dont want to kill mpg too much and 285's may put me lower than I want to go.

    As gorgeous as she is, I’ll be selling her soon.

    I need a V6, Quicksand, and MAYBE an AT. I love black wheels and there just isn’t enough contrast with MGM to make it tasteful (to me). Plus mgm is almost as tough as black to keep clean (outside of wheeling)

    Man, if you were in the Seattle area, I'd love to swap wheels with ya... That's a great combo, IMHO.

    Those are the new 2020 LED headlights. He has the Pro, so his also have backlit words "TRD" and "PRO" at the bottom.

    887s or 888 coils? Running 265/70/17 for now but will be getting 285s in the future. Don’t want to end up with too small of a coil to fit 285s in the future. Running 17x9 -12

    Added a 2020 grill and the CaliRaised hidden bumper LED combo light. I love this color! Everything looks good on it.

    I love the way your truck looks. I love the MGM SX package I got. I think the difference is I went cheap so instead of body color flares the sx has the black which gives the contrast I hear you talking about. Still think your truck is pretty!!!IMG_20191107_170217.jpg IMG_20191107_153735.jpg

    You and me both. I've been keeping an eye out for a while (on Facebook Marketplace, Craiglist, etc.). I check several times every day and they are unicorns. I'm probably just going to breakdown and buy a new one.
