The SR thread, let's see them!

I really like the SX pkg also, the 2020 came with keyless entry and intermittent wipers that my 2019 didn't have even though it was SX. On my 2020 I have upgraded the tires, added fogs, made the dog platform in the access cab with storage underneath and added lighted mirrored visors now as well. Another cool thing although I am not selling it, is that after seeing all the Carvana posts in other threads, I got a bid. They will give me almost 3k more than I paid for the truck. Thought I maybe blew it buying in March, got lucky on that one for sure.

 

I think it depends on the year, but my 2016 came with chrome cup holder surround, 4x4 ring, mirror adjust ring, and shift knob ring. Vent rings and door handles are black.

 

For the money ($800) the SX package is most definitely worth it. I encouraged my son to get an SX. They are bad ass and the fender flares alone cost more than that. Comes with sharp wheels as well. Huge upgrade from those ugly steelies

 

Damn, didn't realize there was so many NJ peeps in here hah anyways... I had to tow a rather large tandem axle car trailer with some rough cut 16' lumber out back a few hours ago... 2.7 5MT didn't even break a sweat. Truck actually felt better with some weight back there hah

 

Yeah man. I was surprised how the truck handled weight. Didn't seem to struggle with 2k lbs in the bed. I only drove 5 -7 miles like that, but I was surprised at the fact that it didn't seem to labor even up hill

 

SR Taco..... it's a Jersey thing..... you wouldn't understand....haha

 

Both my brother and father are thinking about buying an SR just like mine. My dad's always had full size American trucks but he says hes ready to downsize. And my brother said he wants more flexibility as far as being able to move crap and haul fishing gear. Mom's already got a new Camry so... haha

 

Does anyone need a 2020 bed light kit with a switch, I traded my truck today.

 

COVID made me

 

This sucks dude. Sorry to hear about that

 

Looks awesome dude! Could you give me some details on the lift and tires/wheels? Or is it buried in the post somewhere

 

A deal popped up on TRD sport takeoffs that I couldn't refuse. Need to go get new lug nuts now.

 

It’s all good, I traded up

 

What did you wind up getting?

 

No lift. Suspension is bone stock.
Falken wildpeak 265/75/16 at3w 114t
Scs f5 16x8 -25mm offset
Heat gun needed to remold fender liners in a few spots.

 

TRD OR with 6MT

 

Do you think the -25 offset was necessary? I don’t want my wheels to be sticking out past the fender flares too much. Would 0 offset be too much rub?

 

0 offset with 8 in width will be flush, -25 will have a poke. You should not be rubbing with 265 with 0 offset no matter the lift.

 

Agree with you.

I've got the same falkens on 0 offset 16,x8 wheels.

 

This. -25mm offset is certainly unnecessary unless you want your tires to stick out past the fenders (which causes minor scrub radius rubbing). Most folks go with -12 or 0 offset which should be good as far as rubbing is concerned. I liked the wider LCOG look like I ran on my first gen for 20 years. I'm old school and when buying a new truck I kinda wanted it to be like my first gen which had -19 offset no lift.
Comparison:

Ran this setup for over 250k. No issues until the past year when I removed my rear mudflaps after pulling my bed to replace the rotted gas tank. Roughly 2 years without rear mudflaps and I have some cancer forming over the fenders. If your running negative offset it's best to have flares or some sort of wide mud flaps for paint protection.
