GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

Golf cart flexing, stock running 18.5x8.5 8's.

 

Look out guys....

 

Guys we got to get some meet and greets and some big rides scheduled for the fall!!

PS DONT DRIVE A RAPTOR YOU WILL GET THE FEVER!! But you still have to have the taco for the trails and being reliable!!!lol

 

Anyone put a 17” sport wheel in the spare tire space with the hoist?

 

I didn't but, I would think that the size of the tire would be more relevant to it fitting or not. I did however, put a matched wheel and tire in there so I'd have a five tire rotation. (265/75-16)

 

As long as the tire ins't over a 265 or equivalent 32" tire it should fit. 33's and up will not unless you trim the brackets

 

It's gonna be with my 255/80r17 tire (Was planning on trimming/hammering) but was concerned with the lift mechanism itself and fitting on the wheel. Reckon there won't be a problem will just possibly just scratch up the outside of the wheel. Would you put the outside of the wheel up or down?

 

Face up I would think. That way the winch bracket thing would pull against the back of the wheel. If I remember right the bottom of the bed where it sits up against is relatively flat.

 

Depending on if you have Tpms or not. Pain if you're spare gets low...

 

Didn't even think about that. Now that I think about it, my factory spare must be face down because I distinctly remember airing it up while still mounted. But then again, I don't care how scratched or ugly that wheel gets.

 

I'd have the face of the tire point up towards the bed. That way rocks don't gash the face of the rim and the lift mechanism only messes up the inside of the rim. It's what I have done.

Pffft what are TPMS??

 

I guess they'll have one in there- I'm gonna use the new wheel/tire they give me as my spare as long as my old one balances out. I dont wanna put a brand new tire on after the others have 30,000. I think they are only giving me 1 tire and not 2 so it may drive funky?

Wish I had more time, I'd just get a steel HC bumper with swingout.

 

Im guessing that your 2013 TPMS system is only set up to read 4 tires, and not 5. That is the way it is on my 15.

 

That's how Bryans is too. Pretty stupid if you ask me, if it were me I'd have at least 10 set up. That way somebody can have 2 sets of tires, winter tires and summer tires. But who am I kidding I don't have that system haha

 

My moms 06 sequoia reads 5. Believe my sisters 09 or 10 5 lug is to

 

I was wondering that too- is that something the dealer/collision center will setup?

 

Pretty sure you can't get anymore set up, Bryan tried and they couldn't do shit. Maybe the dealer could but I think Bryan would've tried it

 

If I understood right, when I ugraded my tires and wheels, if you wanted to have all 5 to read, when the system is only set up to read 4, the system it self will need to be replaced. the box that registers the signals from the TPMS' is located in the back of the cab under the ceiling liner, so probably not to hard to get to. I don't know if all of this is correct, but just what I recall, and it sounded like more money than I wanted to spend.

 

I don't really care about TPMS honestly. I went to Durham town and aired down and my light didn't even come on?
