    hey guys finally got my front suspension done and loving it now I have some noob LT questions. 35s or 37s for tires? I have the clearance for both. also what do you guys think of the fiberwerx one peice hood and fenders? heres the link.

    http://www.fiberwerx.com/html/toyota/tacoma/1piece.html

    here are some pics. I need to get rid of my front wheelspacers asap and unfortunatley they dont make my wheel in the proper backspacing so i think i have to go for a new set of wheels.

    That looks good man! :thumbsup:

    Once Piece is cool! I'd also checkout the new Glassworks 6.5" Fenders. Since One pieces require more work.

    35's is what most run, Logan (username) is running Hummer Takeoff 37's on his truck! 37's is bad-ass:cool: (in other words, go baller status and get 37's)

    Link here: I like the look with the plate bumper, but it needs to be wider, same with flares/fenders! Engage Kit are wide & tall!

    ...too much shit to list.
    Food for thought. You break a glass fender, you only have to replace a fender. You break a glass fender with a 1 piece, you gotta replace the whole damn thing.

    Very true... but the one peice really isnt that expensive and might help with some weight up front.

    keep in mind I have 1" spacers on the wheels which im in the process of getting rid of so that will make it less ridiculous lol.

    I'd get a glass hood before a 1 piece, but that's just me.

    I can personally tell you a one piece aren't cheap man. And you have to have two people to take it off and put it on. Also requires custom sub frames in some cases but they are bitchin looking :D
