    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.
    i have always thought about buying the xrunner body kit and slapping it on a offroad truck to make people second guess wtf it was ..

    I guess new wider wheels will give it a wider stance. wider I mean 16x8 wheels with 3.675-4.5 backspacing depending on the wheel. Eventually I would like to do a small lift, probably just some billy 5100s set at .85 or 1.75 with an add a leaf. Would like to build or have someone help me build a satoshi with lights behind the grill. I think thats about all my wishlist. Oh and some duratracs too, 265/75/16 at the most.

    I think the offset of the wheel does more than the width/size of the tire.

    I have 265/75 on 16" beadlocks and since they sit basically flush with the body, I don't find them particularly aggressive. I have seen many pictures with members who have the same tire setup but with a lower offset wheel that sticks out past the body slightly and it just looks much more aggressive.

    My winter tires are mounted on a set of wheels with a -6mm offset, so I am curious what they will do for "aggressiveness".
