Build

Nice! What specs?

 

For wheels or tires?
Fn wheels Konig 6 shooter. 17x8

Putting 265 70 17 on for now. Try and save some MPG lol

 

Good choice!

 

for a moment I felt really strong when I went to move them from the doorway.
Went to pick one box up thinking it would be heavy and ya. 20lbs per wheel haha

 

Nice. I'm trying to find something with the backspacing I need if I ever go 35's. Really like how I can get those wheels local, but the specs for me won't work. Really don't want spacers.

 

local?
I wish I knew that last week when I ordered them from alberta lol.
I looked all over Toronto coulnd't find them. But oh well it was flat rate shipping, $100.

Could always use spacers no?

 

Shit I thought they were local. Maybe I was wrong. $100 ain't to shabby at all. Thought wheels would be way more than that.

I really don't want to run spacers. Just want the proper offset. Spacers are fine and lots of people use them all the time with no problem. Just want the proper offset and backspacing if I can.

 

know what you mean. I went with these since they were 0 offset which from what I understand helps a lot when running a 285.
I daily drive so I doubt I'll ever be going bigger than a 33, if I even go to a 33.
We'll have to see how it is this summer after lift etc if I fiend for bigger.


Have to hit up the trails soon and do some camping dude.
OF4 is doing its trail clean up first weekend of may. Might head out and lend a hand.

 

I hear ya man. The fiend is the problem. Lol.

I'm down for anything to get out. Been hussling to get my dual battery project done for when the season opens.

 

my build is being slowed drastically as work is so up and down right now I can't be putting shit on credit so lift might need to wait till mid summer.

 

It will get done eventually. Better to pay for it then put it on credit. All in time.

 

And they're fitted.
Sun was going down so not the greatest pics but for now

 

Looks sweet.

 

better pic without the sunset lol.

 

Seems, like we are all doing the same thing. I gave up on trying to build one myself, my time is to short with the workload I have from work to source/build one from scratch. I ended up just buying one as it was easier then me building it from scratch. Now for everything to just dry out here on site so I am not in 3 feet of mud so I can happily go around installing everything on my days off.

I hear ya. Time is definitely a factor. What system did you go with?

 

Ended up going with Off grid. His work is fantastic, and I know others whom have his kits installed as well, nothing but praise. Sure you pay for it, but the time saving alone was worth the cost to me. I had him throw in a switch pro as well. I hate having a truck with no room for aftermarket switches, something Toyota should address. They know a lot of us modify their tacomas/tundra's by adding in aftermarket lights, fridges etc, I'm not talking 8 empty blanks, but having only two to work with, when some of us, are installing multiple accessories for trips/etc, makes it difficult, or heavy modifications need to be done to get switches in.

No front mud flaps? You rebel, you.

Also, can we try fitting the entire truck into the photo next time?

 

yuiry you're asking a lot of me now lmao.

and ya tires rub at full lock on them
still pissed off though, canadian tire fucked up the lug nut key for them. dumb cunts used an impact gun on it when I told them not to as it said right on the key.
probably used the wrong socket too as its all rounded off now.
Getting kal tire to order me a new one, probably stuck paying out of pocket for it now.

 

same kit I'm planning on getting eventually once work picks up more and I can start going full throttle with this build.
