    That looks sweet and I'm sure it does much better than the stock crap. Just make sure the leafs max out before the shocks.

    Hey, I love my stock muffler! People give me crap for it but I love the silence, especially when driving the truck on the street listening to music while blasting the A/C!

    Oh and if I ever lower a taco in the future which I'm sure I probably will, for some reason I have always loved the nexo ts-8 and 10's.

    The offset has always been right where I want it, to put the tire out just a tiny bit but enough to keep it within the fender well when I drop or bag it.

    But on my Lexus SC4 I do really like the Enkei Aegis still; no matter how shredded they are.
