    I think your truck already looks good as it stands. If anything, I think a white front bumper would make it look a bit better. I just bought my 15 AC magnetic gray base model a few weeks ago. Almost bought a white one because inventory of other colors are very scarce in So Cal. Tires and wheels are on my upgrade list, and I want to do them sooner rather than later, but I'm concerned how they would affect the manufacturer warranty. I'm also still researching on swapability of TPMS sensors to the new wheels and the effect on power and mpg for going with bigger tires. I'm planning to keep factory suspension and gear. I welcome your opinion on these concerns.

    Hey htioki! As for warranties and everything like that i was also skeptical at first but i got it all done at around 900 miles on the car and took it to toyota to have a look over currently will be putting a midlevel travel kit from sway a way. Toyota does not care about different parts. The only thing is if a part is broken and it was caused by an aftermarket part that was put on then there will be no coverage from the warranty, but they will have to prove it. I say go for it and just have fun man! And hopefully lovker and regear is next on the list!

    Thanks for the feedback. Were you able to swap your TPMS sensors to your new wheels?

    I personally did not and i do not think they were compatable regardless. Also i needed to get new lugs too. Another thing is the tire pressure light has been on, but there are ways to turn this off

    dude very nice! I'm getting a similar set up but with icon. however, did you have to cut a piece to fit the coilovers, like TC says? and did you need to upgrade to a longer brake line??

    Yes you will need to cut where it says to clear the coilover. But no you do not need an extended brake line!

    No a different truck all together and i just used the ready lift aal i just wanted it cheaper to give it a better look. Not a performance benefit at all
