I installed my 5100's Monday and absolutely love them!!!!! The ride and control is so much better than stock. I lifted the front 1". That's all for now. One of the first things I did was get rid of the good year kevlars and replaced them with Toyo Open Country AT II'S. I'm keeping the stock tire size for now. I feel like I'm finally getting this truck where I want it. Next mod, front camera!!

I love that blue color on your Taco. You've done a lot of touches that I've done.

I love those factory rims. What did you do with them?
