    It's was molded really well to all of the seat mounts and is laying down really nice with some time especially. I'll have to see how it holds up this summer

    Right in the feels :anonymous: ...I saved one of my 37" PBR's on a wheel so I'll at least have a matching sized spare to wheel on if I cut one down! Getting married put the brakes on spending another $600 for a matching spare wheel and tire.

    Finally got all four tires mounted and our for a drive! I’m super happy to have stayed on 37’s and to spring for aluminum beadlocks. The 3RZ needs all the help it can get above 65. The Maxxis’ were dead on 37” tall, right on par with the PBR’s and virtually no road noise compared to the rockers too. It feels full on luxury truck with flooring, new seats and quiet tires...just look past it’s raisn like qualities in the sheet metal

    Happy to have stayed on 37s? Were you looking to go larger or smaller?

    I contemplated going to 40’s for a minute...then my head took over from my heart and I bought 37’s again. It’s the right sized tire for the 3RZ and Toyota axles, very driveable and reliable.

    40s would've been sick but you made the right choice for now. Looks great

    It's been a few different colors over the years...

    Green, gray, yellow, snow camo and now blue...don't look too close or else you can see all of the different colors it has been in previous lives

    Made a trip out to Windrock with a blend of TW guys and Mud guys. Had shitty weather but still a good time aside from learning that re-torquing the lugs after 100 miles on aluminum wheels is not optional.

    They work awesome. Quieter and no vibes even unbalanced compared to my PBR’s onroad. I walked some waterfalls in double low that I didn’t think I even had a shot at without pulling line too

    Nice, what psi were you running them at?

    That's why I drive my truck to the trails, I would have found out my lugs were not tight while I was cartwheeling down the highway, not being embarrassed on the trail!!

    In all seriousness check the torque on the beadlock bolts evrey few weeks of road driving, mine loosen up a bit over time, and especially after wheeling.
