3rd GEN BARCELONA RED TACOMAS!!

Original tires were 245s; tires in photo are 265/75/16 General ATX; no lift, no cutting, no rubbing on factory wheels

 

TRD Lift, TRD PRO 4Runner wheels, 265/70/17 KO2's

 

Still Looks wimpy next to the Jeep, but a lot less Grandpa truck like when I bought it.

 

Safe from pollen for about 0.0003 seconds.

 

got rid of the pollen for a little bit

 

Officially joined the BRM club today. From this morning.




and then from this evening



I will say the color is growing on me. I’m normally a muted color guy (greys, blacks, sand) but this red is quickly growing on me. Maybe I’m just partial since she’s mine (there are many like it, but this one’s mine). Didn’t really choose BRM as I just said not white as I know there is a massive shortage and this was the only allocation they had. All that said to say, I think I’ll enjoy this color.

 

MY 2017, SSO hidden winch bumper,

 

Did you see any sag in the front end from the added weight? Are you on stock suspension?

 

I have Bilstien 5100 on the front. I didn't notice any sag. I never measured it before but it was on the second setting of the shocks.

 

Stock springs?

I just did the TRD shocks with Stock springs for 2' lift front 1" block in back. I was thinking about a winch but dont want any sag in the front

 

The wife and I decided we like the de-badged look:

 

Do bronze wheels look good with Barcelona Red? Yes. Yes they do. 17x8.5 +0 with 265/70 wild peaks. It was so hard for me to decide. But I finally just did it. I think they look awesome.

 

Looks good, the more I see bronze wheels with the red the more I think I need just to break down and buy a set... lol

Hey, what side steps are those that you're running?

 

any rubbing with the 265?, im thinking of doing the same with 275/70

 

I was afraid they might be too light bronze/gold looking based on some pics. But they aren't at all. I'm really happy with them. The steps are aluminum N-Fab Predators. They are similar to the tacoma steps. Maybe don't stick out/down quite as much.

 

The closest my tires come to rubbing when fully turned is about 1/2 inch. I don't think 275/70 would be a problem. You might have to remove the front mud flaps. Or bend some plastic on the front of the wheel well.

 

Hand wash.

There’s also a guy on YouTube who loves Tacomas AND he is an auto detailer!

His YouTube channel is called The Unrestricted. I’ve taken his lead in buying the right products to keep my Barcelona Red shiny!

 

Washed El Diablo today!

 

Do you mind sharing what's your tire size? Man, I'm really considering going for a Tacoma TRD Pro wheels over SEMA wheels. We almost have the same truck LOL

 

Did you go 265/70 or 265/65 on these? Running stock height?
