MARYLAND TACOMAS

I saw you when I was rolling out on Wednesday, but you didnt see me.

 

See if this works? I thought you would be more impressed with the bull bar LOL

 

Yeah no supercharger, no 20" wheels, has a white line painted on the tires for some odd reason (hone made white walls maybe? Lol)

Bull bars are not my thing, but plenty of people like them, so I dont really care that much lol. But that bed cover on the other hand



The truck has potential, but it's definitely not a $28k truck IMO

 

That is what bf goodrich tires look like when curb the fuck out of them constantly.

They create their white letters, by making a whole layer of the rubber white and then putting a black layer over it.

 

Love the rear spoiler, maybe some auto zone flame decals would finish it off well.

 

You can tell that someone does not rotate their tires and likely does not maintain their vehicle properly if they have tires that scuffed up only on one side of the truck

 

Mine aren't scuffed up but I rotate front to back. I was told at a auto seminar that they should rotate in the same direction during the life of a tire.

 

That’s what was my understanding. However this (spring) last time I went into Firestone, they crossed the tires over.

 

Uhoh here we go. Which one of the big dogs is right about rotation?

 

I believe its all an opinion based thing.

My grandfather was a GM Mr Goodwrench Mechanic for over 40 years and he taught me to bring the rears straight forward, then cross the driver’s side front to the passenger side rear. Passenger side front, to the driver’s side rear. Been doing that my whole life and on every car i have worked on.

 

I also have done that lifelong, the crossover. My owners manual keeps them on the same side though.

 

Also tire manufacturers recommend the same side. That's how I've always rotated tires. But imo as long as they are being rotated is what really matters. I see a lot of premature tire wear because they aren't being rotated at all.

 

Let's break out the boxing gloves...

 

Pistols at dawn!

 

I’ve spent over 10 minutes extensively researching the subject.

Current thought is asymmetrical tread tires get crossed over, directional tread tires stay on the same side.

 

But you didn't site your sources.

 

Documentation? We don’t need no stinkin documentation.

 

It's a no brainer that directional tires stay on the same side, they're directional.

 

This is 100% correct.

Manufactures only tell people tp rotate front to back to cover their asses.
