    My bubble burst years ago. I stopped thinking I was special sometime in my 20's.

    Had to look some of this new fancy stuff up.
    It does emit a certain degree of awesomeness.

    I light my house by candle and evacuate into a hole in the yard so I can save money for Tacoma parts. Switches? Pfft. Bourgeoise evil witchcraft.

    Posting this here first for you guys before I move on to the midwest sales thread...

    I've been really impressed with the Mickey Thompsons, on and off road, and I'm pretty certain I'll never put the old wheels and tires back on the truck. So, I've decided to get them out of the garage.

    The wheels are 16" TRD off road wheels. They're in great shape with just a few trail kisses. The tires are 265/75/R16 Firestone Destination AT2 and they have between 8 and 9 32nds of tread left. I believe they had 12 new, so they're about halfway through their serviceable life. They're surprisingly capable off road when aired down. Just ask @Stoney Ranger ! They're also 3 peak rated and very good in the snow. They all have TPMS sensors. One thing to note... I had a very slow leak in one (about 2 psi per week) and I did find a tiny bit of metal, like a paper clip poking out between lugs. It's in a spot that can be repaired.

    I'm asking $550 (cash or Venmo only) for the set, and they must be sold as a set. I'll throw in the never used spare on a steelie and all the lug nuts if you want em. No shipping. Just local pickup/delivery or TW Express. Let me know if you have any questions!

    Just kidding, of course. I probably wouldn't know what any of that shit is if I hadn't worked for Techteriors.

    Living underground is where it's at! Enjoy that free geothermal climate control!

    I know your transfer case is essentially unused/new, so @pearing might be able to make use of it when he inevitably breaks his.

    Your choice of vernacular has me all hot and bothered, Scott.

    Edit: I ironically bought Taco parts tonight. I'll admit I have a problem and I'm ok with that.
