    I was looking at new 2011 trucks when a 2009 Toyota Off Road Certified Used w/25000 miles showed up. It was in perfect shape, Barcelona Red, with pretty much everything, including the factory subwoofer.

    I've added a Big Country Dakar Bull Bar, Leer Bed Cap and a Pioneer AVIC-Z130BT Nav Unit.

    It's been to the upholstery shop for leather seat trim and a power drivers seat. Next step was a 3" ToyTec Ultimate lift kit with Bilstein 5100's front and 5160's in back.

    Now it's on to the wheels and tires. The forums have been helpful in learning everything about wheels and tires, backspace, offset, oversize wheels and tires, bolt patterns.... Just about everything except if a wheel and tire combo will fit....and the tire dealers won't even answer that.

    Will they fit? Uhhh, we'll call you back.....

    I'm in Western Washington. Off road means Forest Service dirt roads or tumbling off the side of a mountain. Right now I'm trying to get a tire dealer to give me their blessing on a set of Fuel Havoc D549s and Michelin LTX AT2's @ 18".

    My worst case winter driving scenario is wet snow on steep hills in heavy traffic.
