    Very nice, what size tires will you be going with if you upgrade?
    Also are you gonna do BHLM? IMO they look incredibly sick on the 2012's

    In that case you should be able to go to a 32" 265/75-16 without trimming. Pick a lightweight wheel and tire to minimize power loss.

    As you can see, lots of wheel well showing. Gonna save up for 16" beefy sometings. (not too big). Yeah, I like the black headlight look too.

    Didn't want to go too big, and the 235/75s are perfect. Just enough to give me a better stance than the tiny stock tires without having to mod.

    Just got new wheels on my 2012 5 lug... :)

    They're 16x7 +38 Enkei Compe's, and I'm totally pleased with their understated looks. They're the closest I could get to the style of the old 1960's Panasport wheels that would actually fit on the truck. Even though the tires are 235/60/16's, they are within one percent of being the same diameter as the stock 215/70/15 tires.

    The Enkeis are 6.25 pounds per wheel lighter than the steelies. This means shedding a total of 25 pounds of revolving weight. This is equivalent to making the truck 250 pounds lighter. :)

    You won't... because they're the only 8 spoke truck wheels that are like the vintage racing Panasports from the 60's and 70's. They've always been my favorite wheels, which is why I was so happy when Enkei recently introduced these retro wheels that are nothing like any of the current popular designs.

    I'm pretty Panasport's are replicas of the real thing which were made by Watanabe in the 60's.

    They were all preceded by Minilite wheels which were used on Mini Coopers in the late 50's. I think that old design is really cool. :)

    I have finally gotten everything I want completed on my Taco! Love this truck more all the time...a very capable 2WD! I'll get her cleaned up and get better pics later but here it is as it sits today! :)

    ^^ Dude...I love your 'stache on the front!

    Here's a pic taken just a few days ago on my phone. I was out on Vancouver Island and had to take my Taco in to the shop. While we were waiting for parts, my brother drove up in his '93. :)
