Soon To Be New Tacoma Owner

Hi Everyone,

Wanted to introduce myself to the forum. My name is Nick and my Tacoma is slated for production June 1st and estimated to be delivered sometime mid to late June.
It was a dealer allocated Tacoma, but I am loving the spec. It is an Army Green TRD Off-Road 4x4 Double Cab Auto V6 with the 5 foot bed. It has the Advanced Technology package, LED Headlights and Fog lights package, and the TRD-Premium Off-Road package. It also will include the All-Weather-Floor Liners and Door Sill Protectors, Door-Edge Guards, and Mudguards.

My last two vehicles were not really mod-able so one could say the mod bug is already starting, and this Tacoma has not even been built yet.
Right now I am looking put a tonneau cover (most likely Tyger), running boards (unknown yet) and tint within the first couple days.
I have already looked into some bolt on exhausts other than the TRD, and am leaning towards the MBRP exhaust as the sound seems to be exactly what I am looking for.
My biggest questions come in regards to wheel and tire sizes. I like the look of the stock set that comes with the spec Tacoma I will be getting, but I know I am going to want to go with a more aggressive looking A/T tire. Does anyone know what seems to be the sweet spot fitment wise while maximizing tire size for both a 16 and 17in rim?
Any and all recommendations for all mods welcome!

Sorry all words and no pictures!
Hopefully sometime in June I will have some to upload, but for now...I continue to wait and look forward to meeting everyone.

First off welcome and congrats on the new Taco. The mod bug is a real thing and I got bit a few years back. Where you located? I've got an MBRP exhaust for 5 ft. bed I've been looking to swap. I'm located in Mass

 

Welcome! Enjoy your new truck once it arrives. Yes, pics for sure.

Welcome to TW!

 

I am located in PA a little bit outside of Philly. I will know sooner than later, so if I decide to go with the MBRP I will let you know.
What are your thoughts on it since you are looking to swap it out? Any negatives/things you dont like about it?

 

Thanks for this!
I ended up seeing this shortly after my post. If only I looked around a bit more first.

 

It's got a nice start up but to be honest after the honeymoon phase is over the drone starts to become annoying on longer trips.

 

Welcome!
