My lowered '19 DCSB -- finally some good pictures!

thank you sir

 

to each his own but that would be too much color. wasnt there a red one done up like that here? too much red. IMO

 

Let's see them ugly angles tho.

 

Also thinking of lowering my Taco with this kit. I have a ‘16 TRD Sport with 17” TRD Pro Rims and stock tires 265/65R17. Do you think there will be any issues with tire clearance?

 

Nice setup, I dig it very sharp!!

 

Very clean! I like it! I remember lowered trucks being a thing back in the 90's and early 2000's. You just don't see them anymore.

 

I'll be ordering a TRD Sport Access cab 4x4 in a couple months, and I'll definitely be doing this as soon as I get it home (Warranty be damned)!! I'm only getting the 4x4 for winter anyway, so this along with a nice 20" wheel and tire combo will be perfect for me.
Now, do I want VooDoo Blue or Cement..........

 

Looks AWESOME op!!

 

I love it!!! Need to do this if I get my 2021

 

Verrrry nice!

 

thank you

 

Looks really good but needs a stripe or subtle graphic to break up the white.

Maybe a monochromatic two tone faded hockey stripe

 

Anyone with the sos lowering kit.....I need to know the height of your tailgate with it open. I need the measurement from ground to flat surface of tailgate. I am thinking of getting the kit. I need to be able to load things from a dolly is why I need to know the height.

 

sick looking truck! tasteful! congrats!

 

Plenty of trucks out there that never leave the pavement and are still used as trucks. I’d wager to say a lot more than those that “need” ground clearance.

 

It’s personally preference, some like to keep it stock, some like lifting, some like lowering. It’s your money so do what you like.

 

That looks great and just what I’m looking for. What size tire are those and any rubbing? Also those retractable running boards are something I’m considering adding in the future.

 

Its a 265/60/18 (approx. 30.5 inches).

that tire size is equivalent to a 245/70/17 which will fit your 17 inch TRD Sport wheels.

The difference between the stock 265/65/17 inch tire and the 245/70/17 is the width. the 245 will be ~1 inch thinner and should increase MPG.

It makes it a little worse. Lowering always does, to some degree. I’ve never lifted a vehicle but I’d imagine it’s probably also detrimental to the ride in some ways.

 

Can you elaborate exactly where it rubs, how much, and if it's under certain conditions? I have different wheels than you, but the exact same tires.

Love the way your truck looks! Mine is a white, two wheel drive SR5. Thinking about getting the SOS kit for my truck. I don't do any off roading and would like to improve the on road handling. If rubbing is a big issue, I might just get the Hellwig swaybar kit instead and leave it at stock height.
