DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

It was great meeting y’all today! Glad to finally put some faces to these names here, haha!

 

And the food was off the chain! Well done!!

 

Delta joints are in.

 

How hard was it?

 

You need new tires

 

Maybe @Silverspool ’s next Miata?

 

That’s spicy...

 

Miata is always the answer

 

Not if a stripper ask if your gay when you tell her what you drive

 

strippers arent paid to talk

 

street racin foo!

 

A “Toyota engineer” mentioned 16” wheels being the cause of many issues they (Toyota) cannot diagnose and new Tacomas would only roll out with 17” wheels.

2021 models have 16” wheels. When would a change like that take place (assuming it’s valid)? What kinds of issues would a wheel size even have on the vehicle 5+ years after market introduction?

 

There are several legit Toyota engineers in the Tandem/TTR circle so it’s not 100% crazy. Likely a change like that would be 4th gen Tacoma, allowing bigger brakes and other upgrades.

I have no idea what sort of issue could be attributed to wheel size that would be hard to track down.

 

It’s possible they are, but people say lots of things and I don’t trust it until I see evidence. My questions are based on the benefit of the doubt.

Bigger brakes is an advantage, but I don’t see what problems would be caused by OEM 16” wheels. I guess we’ll see.

 

"Cheater slicks"

 

If his name was Mike and had a weird goatee, he’s the real deal.

 

No dice

 

Heres what bothers me about 16 vs 17, why are 17 inch tires more expensive when it takes more rubber to make the same tire for a 16

yeah think about that and try to get some sleep tonight
