What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

only flat on the bottom......sorry

 

that's plenty of cooling capacity for the suburban Karen errands you run in your stock TRD On-Road

 

Broke 60,000 miles!

 

They definitely should have called the TRD Sport the TRD On-Road. It would have cleared up a lot of confusion.

 

Good call, I’ll turn it around and put it back on

 

Forgot to get a pic, but looked like I picked up a key on the highway

 

Finally replaced my warranted gen2 headlights with the new Morimoto Evos w/ Superchargers and XPEL PPF. I cannot stop drooling over how good this looks. This is the upgrade the front end needed. <3



Also while I had the front end apart, I added some nutserts to the bumper brackets where the S8 light bar attaches since I have that tool now. This made for a much more secure install that will be considerably easier to service in the future should I need to. Nutserts are awesome. I like this way more than the loose nuts and bolts I was using previously that were near impossible to access with the air diversion panels installed. Also seems like the light bar sits straighter now. The loose wiring there is for my quick disconnect front camera that I have stealthy routed thru the back of the grille.

 

those are some good mpgs, mbn

 

Hey, it's only flat on the bottom...

 

What did I do to my tacoma today? Traded it in

2025 Camry XSE


This is the best forum ive ever been on, hands down. Browsing this forum on my free time and making connections never thought before. Thank yall, I plan to join the Tacoma club again in the future. Cya!

 

Yes, typically whenever you pick up an odd object in you tire, key, screw driver, battery etc etc it is almost always the back tire, the front tire hits the object and kicks it up and the back tire hits it and a flat she goes... I have seen thousands upon thousands of flats over many many years and weird crap gets caught by the rear tire almost always....

 

Only time I caught a flat in the front was from another vehicle in front of me kicking something up. Same concept, just multi-vehicle. It was a big heavy piece of sharp steel; I nearly shat myself when I saw it kick up towards my little car at the time. Direct hit to the front tire, and instant blowout. It wasn't just a small puncture, it completely ripped about an 8 inch gash into the sidewall. I nearly wrecked bc I might as well have lost all steering while going 60+mph down the interstate in this little FWD car. Fun times.

 

They look good..

 

About to take this in to Discount Tire and see if it’s “repairable” by their standards. Guessing not since it’s on the outermost lugs, so I’m gonna see if I can keep this one and plug it myself and replace the stock 245 from 2019 on my spare.

 

I would absolutely plug that guy and give it a go. But then again I’m on old farm boy who has done many inadvisable things to tires.

 

I personally would probably keep running it, but I have a warranty on these so I might as well get my money’s worth.

 

I think you're far enough from the edge of the tire to safely plug that.

 

Would fail NY State inspection. Even if youre not in that state i wouldnt risk it

 

best case is they warranty it right? Does that mean you get a new tire or they just pay out for whatever life was left?

 

Get new tire. the tire shop will pro-rate it if you have road hazard warranty. youd pay some but not the full price. pending on the wear they prob try selling you another tire.
