    Agreed! I was at Toyota the other day and a salesman asked me to step it up and get the new Tacoma. I said, na, not that ugly shit. I'll stick with my rig..haha

    I have heard of someone running them on 15's... I think generally you want at least 16's but I think it depends on the wheel and offset

    the only I can see that is with a low back space and huge spacers to kick the wheel away from caliper.

    Hawaiian style.

    the 2016 Tacundra is hideous regardless of slight grille alterations.

    Good luck with an aftermarket bumper that wont like a Raptor rip off dragged in ass

    Yes that's correct, also I just realized I typo-ed like a fool. Don't worry, when I mixed this up for use on my truck I absolutely used acetone and not ethanol:thumbsup:

    The cheap castings will still have the 13WL markings on them. You will be able to tell by how rough the casting is compared to the OEM.

    I did mine on the cheap.

    Found a guy on a tundra forum that was selling his 199s since his truck upgraded to the 231s for free...think I got them for ~$100 for the pair. Rebuild kit from toyota was like $20.

    Brembo blank rotors, ~$100 for the pair. Akebono ceramic pads ~$50. Don't have SS lines but I do have the right banjo bolt..so that was cheap too. All in all I got it done for under $300. I had to change out my rotors and pads anyway, so really the only "cost" for the upgrade was the calipers and banjo bolts.
