    Just picked up spidertrax 1.25" wheel spacers with lug nuts for 80 bucks. Mounted them on. Very nice quality part. I really like how it pushed the wheels out. Looks much more aggressive. I do need to trim a little, as you can see in the picture. I also added the tacoma sport picture on the bedside. Got that from ebay. What do you guys think?

    Keeping it a dark, clean look and adding a wider stance i think looks pretty good! But, be safe, make sure you follow the 1-1-1 rule on the spacers!

    1 day later check spacer nuts
    1 week later check spacer nut
    1 month later check spacer nuts

    Im a BIG fan of debadging! Bravo on removing the OEM badges. The small TRD badge on the tailgate is kinda growing on me though :) .... Stickers... not so much....

    Nice - I put the same size spacers on a couple years ago to see how they would look. What I ended up liking more was how the truck handled better - it would track better at higher speeds and feel better in turns - overall I liked it so much I left them on there for that reason alone. The owner of BORA spacers told me to check the torque after 5 miles and after that just every tire rotation. 2ish years later they haven't budged since. As for the front TRD badge I prefer a debadged grill, but you did make it look legit where you placed it - very clean :thumbsup:

    Looks nice! I have 1" spacers on my truck and I love them. I run skinny tires ( 255/85-18 ) so the extra track width of the spacers makes the truck more stable on and off road. I use blue loctite on the nuts, and I check them at tire rotations. I have never found one backed off. Never any issues at all.

    Looks good. Don't forget to re-torque the bolts after 100 or so miles.
