    I will be adding the intermittent wipers switch and eventually more aggressive tires. I have not decided yet if staying with 245's and keeping stock rims or going with something aftermarket and a little bigger.

    I have also been looking at Craigslist for trd off road, 4Runner or fj wheels but people want too much money.

    So far I have only tinted the windows and added a wheelskins steering wheel cover.

    It still did pretty good all stock though.

    What tires are on the stock sr5? I have the sport and it has toyos and have been contemplating doing some light off-roading but am afraid of busting a tire. When the toyos wear out I'm getting meaner tire.

    A back step for when I get older, Carhartt seatcovers, 4Runner wheels, Topper, and "tats all folks"! --for now!!
    Stock 4x4 Sr5's get Firestone Destination LE2's They ride and look like car tires -- I have heard/read they have good tread life. I sort of wished they didn't -then I would have a excuse to get new/different tires!

    No way, you could not possibly have driven that trail without a 6" lift and 37s! Plus you don't look cool at the mall, bro! o_O

    Even with wheels you don't like you still have a very nice looking truck that is very capable. Let the fun continue.
