    Is there a reason you went from 15x8 to a 15x10?

    Also, another reason you run 12.50s instead of 285s?



    Trying to decide on tires and wheels...

    Because i found a set of 5 mtr's with rims on CL for 800. Brand new tires. Instead of swapping i just kept the 15x10. Love the look of them. I didnt go 285 because i prefer more meat than rim. 15s ftw!!!
    But now i cant get tundra brakes...lol

    oh yea!!

    I love the look!! Lots of trimming tho. I mean a lot. like fuck it remove the fenders and use a BFH for the pinch weld.

    if you have a choice tho, go with 15x8. gonna give you more height

    If not 4x4 then rear locker. If not rear locker then 4x4. Maybe next rig will have both.

    I'm not sure I understand the question??^^

    Its gonna rub regardless. With or without flares. More with the flares. The main problem is the pinch weld and the windshield washer bottle. I also cut my fenders about 1/2 inch in the rear and fronts. I didn't do the full arch but I will be doing it soon. I only cut towards the bottom

    it was a phony.

    never intended to get this deep into wheeling. was gonna be a grocery getter till I found TW. then I found praire city and realized my 2wd was whack!

    I remember wheeling at PC and some guys asked if I had a locker. I just smiled and said " I have no clue what that is, I'm here for the mud" :anonymous:

    Ah. Understood
    Lol. Noob AF.

    I thought the same when i got mine. Figured i probably wasn't gonna be wheeling it. Now look at it. Couldn't be happier. Definitely met some amazing people because of the truck and TW!:thumbsup:
