    Lol, I know, I'm saving up some and spending some, the wheels/tires are in the future and the lift isn't anything too expensive

    I'm not lifting until i'm out of college.

    I'm doing things like head lights, tail light, lighting, may trade the weight of my cap for a tri fold tunno and maybe some bolt on sliders, looking into wheels so i can avoid painting my rusty steelies....i've got plenty to do. i've even made a list of it all. Who needs lifts while still daily driving it?! :eek:

    Ohh, that's a good list, I would like new wheels, still not sure which to get, I'm only doin a small lift that won't affect daily driving a ton and make it look a little nicer

    The tires are what kill you after a lift. I already went from a P rated tire to an LT which made me gain about 10lbs per corner. Now i want lighter wheels to counter act that. SR5 steelies are supposed to be about 29lbs. I would want a wheel 20lbs or less

    Ohh, yeah, the extra tire weight is a killer, but what wheels are 20lbs? Alloys? Other steels? I was lookin at pro comp 7032 or mickey Thompson classic 3, but I'll have to look into the weight

    I'm just very skeptical of having the matte black wheel on my blue truck that already is hot enough as it is. But if i got the bronze color, i wouldn't have anything else to match it....and i'm not sure about their gun metal color, i'd probably have to see them in person :(

    There are many other things on my list but wheels are creeping up every time i see the rust :'(

    Yeah, I painted mine, but they're just junky and ugly. I would get the gunmetal maybe, but I don't like those wheels much and they're mucho dinero

    I'd pay that for them when the toyota wheels are as mediocre as they are. I had a set of sport wheels and ended up selling them because the corrosion on the back of them bothered me that much. That and i hate buying 17" tires.

    I've also seen the off road model alloys with big chunks of coating falling off of them left and right :(

    Another problem is that if i put $900 worth of wheels on my truck, i think i'd be afraid to use it :( lol
