2016 SR - CFP GSD build

How the Taco sits today... took off the back half of the rack till I buy a jon boat / fishing canoe. Looks too work truck-ish to keep that on all the time.

 

This is a legit eBrochure on the Tacoma with a ton of good info:

Threw on some black wheel covers for $59

Lil side project today getting my welding machine loaded up on a tray with some casters and all my welding junking loaded in the drawers. Should be a lot easier to wheel out weld then store now.

 

I have a few questions about these wheel covers. Do you have to take the center caps off to install these? Is the center of the black covers flat or curved and what would the diameter be if you wanted to put a sticker or a center cap emblem in there? Looks good btw, are you happy with the covers so far?

 

Nope center caps are covered dont need to be removed. Center is flat and inset slightly (very slightly) and I've totally thought about adding a sticker or emblem, Super happy with them for what they are, cheap easy way to go black on the steel rim color and 0 issues with removability at a future date (Plasti dip is a huge bitch to peel on rims once it gets old and cracked/dried out). Ill get measurements of center circle... one sec

 

Caps are 2.5 and 1/8 diameter

 

So they actually dip in a little bit or basically flat? I was looking at a center cap metal stick on but it has a little bit of a curve to it like the factory center caps do.

 

The one thing I dont like is how my tires look compared to the piano black shiny covers, but thats just a motivator to keep my tires clean. Not a huge deal

 

Ok, thanks man.

 

pretty flat but inset interior circle

 

NP, watch out when you put them on if you buy them they only fit 1 of 6 ways you can try to put it on, tripped me out when I tried to put them on at first thought I had wrong kind or something

 

Got my passenger mats attached finally.

Now I'm thinking of going with a cross between these two in square tube with diamond plate sides, going towards sports bar away from headache rack

 

What did you end up using for emblems? link? those look cool

 

There are a lot of options on eBay but I played it safe and just ordered stickers. I am not positive how long they will last but we will see. I ordered the ones from the following link in silver.

Ty, I've grown to like these covers a lot over the options of painting/dipping. Changes the whole look of the truck cheap and quick (In an ideal world I'd be buying 4Runner Pro rims and AT tires but this works for now)

 

Fabbed up some drop brackets for my shovel and got plugs for the old holes where it used to be mounted
