I feel like so many of you love camping I wonder if its just a Tacoma thing.

Sounds great - thanks! Can you still adjust the wheel up and down? What about in/out?

Recommend Max or Pro? Appreciate the help!

 

I thought lead clip on weights were a thing of the past...?

 

Got my second alignment today. No more rubbing on the 285-75r16 setup with about 1.5 inches of lift front and back.

 

I can only recommend what I’m running and what works for me. That is the Sports. From what I’ve seen and read, the max has a way better cutoff than the Pros. So, out of those two, I’d go Max.

With that said, the sports are no slouch and will provide you way more output than any OEM fog

 

They put them on the inner lip from the factory and stick on weights inside on the outer edge (if that makes sense). Made me cringe when I saw them.

Installed the new tires on mine right after I bought it, balanced with stickies inside and out, rolls down the road smooth as butter and my blood pressure is back down

 

Yes and yes!

 

Probably the main reason for getting my Tacoma.

 

I've had this horrible mold smell in my truck for a week. Today I ripped out my interior to find the padding under the rug was wet, and the smell was coming from that.


Also, there was still a gap at the third brake light even after the dealership bent me over fixing it when it failed, so I siliconed it.

Ridiculous. Not what I wanted to do this week.

 

These bad boys just came in

 

Yeah I went the clear silicone route myself. I noticed the leak last summer and truck was well out of warranty. So $10 fix for the win.

So far, between torrential down pours, hurricanes, snow, and God know what else, ZERO leaks.

But knowing my dumb redneck luck, that will change.

 

I would hate to lose another amp.....

 

Had a '74 260z back in the day... fun ride!

 

Tan and Black, with a little red. Looks like a GSD.

 

Nope, the MESO sunroof model doesn't work for Access Cabs either.

 

Hey, quick update. 949 messaged me to confirm that the BRZ and Tacoma wheel spacers are the same product. Hope that helps!
