    Rotors probably dont need to be replaced. If they feel warped or are giving you issues, you can get them tested at a brake shop. Toyota OEM pads tend to be the best.

    Sounds good, I'll stop by the dealer.

    I just got quoted over $300 for the job, and I'd much rather learn than pay someone else.

    285/75-16. Would be your best bet i think. Thats a 33inch tire and what most people run with. Any bigger will require quite a bit of trimming unless you want to go 6in lift.

    I think ive aaked you before, but what color is your truck? Tryn to figure out if it was you ive seen in stafford not too long ago

    Blacked out emblems, 50% Tint, Bilstien 5100 Adjustables in front, AAL in the rear. Soon...debadged, Satoshi grill, possible tube doors if I can find the right shop.

    Thank ya kindly. Thinking that would be the best idea, but wanted to make sure I had a second opinion before shelling out the cash. Now I have to figure out what to do with these other tires when I get the new ones in haha.

    My truck's Maroon with the Satoshi and lower valance blacked out. Mostly around the Wawa on 610 and Salisbury or down by Mainstreet since I bounce/barback down there part-time.

    Yeah dont do that. But if you NEED your rotors checked (shouldnt at 54k but you shouldnt really need new pads either :notsure:), pull them off (they come right off when you are changing your pads) and run them down to a shop. Should be considerably less than $300.

    Hey I thought I would hit you guys up, I'm in the NAVY and will be stations at HM 14, in Norfolk within the next couple of months. I'm looking for a decent appartment to rent out there and was looking for some suggestions. I am an E-5 with single BAH so high roller mansions are out. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully I can get down on any trips you guys might have coming up also.

    I work outta Norfolk naval and live in the va beach area. If you don't mind a 25 min drive to work everyday then maple bay town homes is a good area to live in. Other than the jet noise every once in a while, it's nice and quiet and also around everything you need. You're also single so it may be a little too much space for you. I got two dogs runnin around and I'm married and it's just enough for us. It's a 2 bedroom 1 1/2 bath.
