Northern Virginia Roll Call

Sweet! But OUCH!

 

no doubt! wouldnt mind some of the 5 spoke 17" tundra wheels from the limiteds.

 

Here's the wheels: http://trdparts4u.toyotaofdallas.com/Scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=-9002

TRD part.

 

Wheels definitely are expensive. I debated for a long time over spending that much on wheels but I really couldn't find anything else I liked from the aftermarket.

Also, don't let your wife drive your truck. Mine scraped one of the wheels on a curb at the drive-up ATM and I had to order a replacement ring (the polished part around the rim of the wheel). They're >$100 each.

 

You could always order the Black TRD Trail Team wheels >$170+/-
I like the wheels that the dealer put on mine. ATX Series Mojave

 

Don't need to order anything else now, I already have those.

The black Trail Team wheels are fairly popular with Tacomas. I haven't seen another Tacoma with the wheels I bought so I'm happy with them.

 

I'm partial to the Mojaves myself

 

I like those too.

I wasn't sure how an all black wheel would look on the green truck though so I went with the gunmetal gray color.

 

Always liked those mojaves, was looking to put them on mine before i settled with the konigs i got.

 

^^ I love the countersteer offroads in matte black. They look sharp. I was actually looking at either the atx chambers (discontinued?), mojaves, or pro comp 7089s. I stumbled across these for sale from another member and couldnt pass up the package deal. Would've chosen 16s instead of 17s just because of more tire size choices, but I am very happy with them. Very simple design, yet stands out on a silver truck nicely.

 

I finally did my first real install on the truck, did a muffler swap for a flowmaster 40 series, sounds awesome! Took two hours with manual cutting tools. No hissing now to get it inspected. Still have more to cut because I'm getting new shackles soon. But feeling pretty damn good about it.

 

Would any of you guys be interested in a TRD OR Recovery Hook? Looking to get probably $40 for it.

Matt

 

Ender was looking for one!

 

Just PM'd him and he said he was the one selling, but thanks for looking out.

Anyone else interested?

Matt

 

My fault. I'll look at my pm's then

 

I was selling mine, then couldn't find it.

 

Post a thread in sale forum. People always looking for them and you can prob throw it in a flat rate box for cheap

 

Is that the hook we pulled off to put on our bumpers?

 

It's the J looking hook that is on the passenger side on TRD OR's. (not sure if other models have them)

I didn't have to take it off for my Demello but I don''t need it anymore and it looks goofy with a plate bumper.

Matt

 

Only the off roads have the tow hook that you are talking about. Sports and maybe SR5s come with some little flimsy POS there I believe.

I still have the stock tow hook on mine with the bumper, think it looks fine. Just another tow point if it gets down to that. What looks goofy is that stock skid plate paired up with that beast bumper. Get workin on upgrading your IFS skid!
