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

Care to elaborate? Issues that you ran into or anything?

 

i have 01-04 tail lights on my 98.... its going the opposite that they dont work correctly... the pos that i out my taillights in didnt work right

 

So yours just plugged right up and functioned properly?

 

yup no problems at all

 

Might have to order me a set. Have my VHT ready

 

Put my different rims and new tires on today

Before: Old rims and tires


After: New look

 

I am interested in this I think

 

I'll be making an official group buy thread in the next couple days, once I get my quote back and I like the number.

 

Right on man i'll keep my eye out for it

 

Finally got around to getting a good picture. Shows both the stock setup, and the new lift. Really glad I had some good friends to help out, because that took a really long time...

 

What backspacing did you have and what did you go to?

 

Pretty sure my old rims where a 9 inch wide rim with a 4.50 back space and new rim is 10 inch wide and 3 or 3.5 inch back space i think

 

Ok cool. I'm looking at 15x8's with 3.75 in backspacing

 

3.75" is your best option for minimal rub and maximum flex in my opinion.

 

That will look good

 

Oops. Looks like the MT Sidebiter has a 3.3 or 3 5/16 inch backspacing which was the wheel I was wanting.

 

installed my 5100's i used the middle setting..

 

You can always do a 1/2 inch spacer.

 

Wouldn't need one. 3.3 inch backspacing will stick out farther than 3.75 inch. No biggie, my current wheels have 3.3 inch bs.

 

Same for me
