    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.
    my 2008 was access cab 4cyl 4x4 5spd, towed much more than that regularily with no problems other that terrible gas mileage and limited to slow (not enough power to do better than 65) usually 55 and no factory tow package (im not sure there is one) i had the ebay currie reciever and tailight patch in trailer wiring

    i tried that awhile back. spacers didnt work like i was hoping either. most 16 inch rims have issues as well depending on how they are balanced

    i have 16's as well, but many 16'2 depending on the spacing and contruction have very little clearance on the front brakes.. my fj trail team wheels are trd 16's and walmart put the internal sticky weights in, had to go have them rebalanced after the brake caliper took them off :)

    went from the worst to a little better :) nitto makes great car tires i dont know what they are thinking with truck tires... they remind me of a few super swampers of the day all show and worse than stock tires. (ssr, thornbirds)

    but your trucks gorgeous :)

    those sound good driving down the road :)

    the stock tires were suprisingly better in every way than those worthless nitto all terrains 285 bs tires.

    i couldnt agree more. but they want half the money of the other local shops, and they offer "lifetime" so even if it takes them a few tries (more often then not it does) it saves me $$$

    no... its not. just trying to justify it.. lol the truth be told it was 8 and walmart was the only place open :) thats what i had to tell myself to take it there. unfurtunately there are two tire shops here and both have done equally as bad in the past.

    good call sir
