    265’s. I just got these Wildpeaks like 3months ago. Probably keep them until they’re worn. Then I’ll go a size up.

    New X3s have been installed. Went through discount tire and they were awesome. I’m and hour in under 90 min. The best part was watching them trying to jack it up

    That's not possible. Google doesn't spread misinformation, just ask them and they'll tell you they don't.

    What's the point of having a CCW license if I'm not going to carry a firearm? Like I stated, I carry AIWB and wearing a seatbelt makes it difficult to access my firearm if needed. Mounting it this way makes it much more accessible if the need arises.

    That’s exactly what my point was. No sense having it for protection when you’re not gonna carry it all the time.

    Absolutely. Sure, nobody "needs" a gun, ever, EVER....until they happen to actually need it - and then if they do not have it, they or their loved ones could be dead. Good man.

    Excellent thanks. It looks like the price went up but I will keep an eye out.

    I thought 887 is 2” and 885 is less


    the better question is why you’re asking a profile whose location is listed as Vladivostok Russia about the topic of American freedom and rights

    takes one second to undo the seatbelt

    Changed out brakes to 4runner. Already have 17" wheels. It was about $500 all in with reman 14WA calipers. Everything OEM. 4runner hard lines aren't needed at all. If you do this swap, make sure your calipers come with pins for the pads as the 4runner pins are longer.

    I had EBC greenstuff pads previously and am not a fan. When they got hot they would fade pretty good and then suddenly catch. My rotors also warped but it could have been age or something to do with the pads. Either way, OEM or equivalent is easier to find parts and I hope to be in other countries where more exotic upgrades would be a process to source.

    The 4runner stuff is definitely an upgrade with bigger pads (contrary to comments I've read), rotors and more venting in the backing plate. It isn't dramatic, but it is solid. Without bedin, they felt fine driving around the block but I'll get a better feel after bedding and a long trip.
