    they look good, will rub if you put larger than stock tires on but only at full turn

    that's width, what about height? 265/65-17 is 31" or 265/70-16 (or 31x10.5x15 stock)

    265/70-17 is 32" tire (what I run) and I get a little bit of rub full turn, but spot on for speedo up until 75 mph

    It is but I'm not really sure by how much. All I did was add a 1 inch lift block in the rear to level out the truck after getting billstein 5100s all around. This pic makes it look pretty lifted because the driver side was on the taller part of that terrible and uneven parking space

    The Paradise Blue Metallic Tacoma was the reason I wanted a Tacoma as my first vehicle. My cousin had one. She lifted it and had a big subwoofer in the back. Man the takes me back. I never did get a 1st gen Tacoma...

    Is Mystic Purple Mica more rare than the Blue I think only 1st Gen 1998-99 had them?

    Picked this 96 lx up in November. OG paint as far as I know. Been wondering if this is “paradise blue”. I haven’t seen any others with the silver/gray on the lower half. (Also purple lettering across the tailgate???)
    Originally wanted to paint it black, but the blue grew on me and I started hearing it might be a rare color.
    If anyone knows what this color package is called I’d love to find out.
