    Took advantage of the Nitro promo on the gear. OMG! This is a must for the 3rd Gen Tacoma. I'm in Sunnyvale, CA & Stellar Built, is in Sacramento about 120 miles away. Was referred to them by Altitude Offroad, in CO. Dmitriy & his crew did an awesome job...like everyone says, night & day difference! When I saw all those Tacoma's & 4Runner at his shop, I was at the right place! Worth the drive, even getting home 3 hours later, driving 55mgh with cooling stops & having big rigs passing, lol. I don't usually write or rave about stuff a whole lot, but this mod is the best $$ investment on my Taco & well worth the $$. Anyways, SOOOO HAPPY, can't wait for next ski season.

    They're definitely higher, and it definitely slows you down a bit until you put on maybe some 35s, but it is a much better driving experience.
