What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

I watched the raindrops from Tropical Storm Isaac bead up and roll off of the glossy finish of my freshly waxed truck

 

Mounted some 33x12.5-15s, I've always been curious and the opportunity came along to "try" some on.

 

are your caliper rubbing?

 

how do they rub?

your never gonna go back now

 

No caliper interference. This proves that someone makes 15" "D" windowed steelies that'll fit our trucks. These belong to my friend.

A lot. I cannot turn sharply or it'll rub on the pinch weld area.

Actually, I don't think I want to go this wide when I buy. It could be these tires, but I don't like the way they drive. I'll probably stay with a narrower tire.

 

not shocked by that

but some 10.5s will be better im sure


BTW Wheelers type B rims fit good on your truck too..but you knew that

 

The price for those is pretty good. How many wholes are in your Wheelers rims? Is it 7? What is the diameter of those wholes?

 

mmmm...ill get back to you on that..not sure the diameter..id guess like 1.5-2'' maybe

and yes..7..

 

Looks good. What kinda tires

 

I love my 33x12.5x15

 

& I'll bet it was 77 - 80 degrees at pee world But I live in east county & not a beach in sight, it was about 102 with humidity where I live but yeah not nearly as bad as AZ. I got relatives in Peoria & my sister lives in Casa Grande & they've lived there for at least 30 years & were sayin' this is as bad a summer as they can remember....


Oh, how'd you like the $70+ a person admission ?? its a ripoff

 

Ya I don't think it went above 80 lol

I'm in Peoria too, really they said this summers been bad? I was talking to my wife about it the other day and we haven't really had that many days in 100-teens this year. It's been hot as a motha ya but pretty mild compared to years past and I'm a native.

Ya screw the admission prices! $150 for me my wife and one child. Plus $15 parking. Everything is like that tho, it's rediculous to try and take your family anywhere to create memories. Everything is a small fortune! In what we paid for this trip I could of had my rear bumper haha. Oh well seeing my daughter have the time of her life at seaworld and seeing the beach for the first time was well worth it.

 

Made a fishing pole holder

 

Nice job, 5 lugger looks great for it's age.

 

Just think..i have a 5 lugger body! In shitty shape compared to that one tho..

 

Absolutely bro'.... worth every dime , & we're old as dirt so maybe tolerance has gone down some my uncle has a corner lot (about 3 acres I think) he bought back in the late 70's or early 80's , dirt cheap, now he's surrounded by big money houses theres a day care or small school across the street from him & a Bashas (?) couple blocks down the street from him,his last name is Minker & I have cousins with the same name about your age probably...

 

Sounds like he's over around the 75th ave and thunderbird area. If so my daughter goes to the preschool there and my wife has a salon booth in the building next to it. He's like 5 minutes away from me haha

 

Thanks guys! I get pretty "jealous,envious" of all those kick ass 4x4's you guys have. but I received my 5 lugger for free from my pops so i'm forever grateful. So i do my best to keep it in tip top shape.

 

Took her out for the first time with my new lift and tires on it and she did great, even had to my buddies xterra out of the brush and trees. Didnt end so well for him haha!
