    mmmmm.......let me check. Yep. I just shat myself. That's a beautiful truck man, how much did it all cost? Looks like it could have been 6-7K easily. I wish I had that kind of money to throw at my taco :p

    thanks for the comments, i did have some people not liking the wheels, so i was thinking of either taking off the caps or painting em black. which would look better?

    yes i really needed the need for em when i was off roading, i miss my locker botton i had on my old truck. i might have to get that next, along with the skids and sliders, since i already have some small damage under when i went wheeling.

    on the tire rubbing question, i had slight rub on the fender liner in front of the wheel, so i did some minor trimming, now its perfect.

    I like the wheels but it seems like the cap takes alot from the wheel thats just me though take em off and if you like then paint the center cap but dont just do it cause people say it looks ugly. if you like them leave it.

    Looks real sick, love it. I agree on the center hubs... it'd look better if there was a silver lip on the edge to compliment (maybe some offroad guards)? Either that or I'd paint them flat black. But, as said, if you like it leave it, that's most important :p TBH first time I didn't even really notice them and loved the look.

    yep i cranked it up to 3" and my cv boots look alot better than on the 00 taco when i had it at 3" im surprised, i use to tear my cv boots everytime i went wheeling on the 00, but not on this one, they are perfect.

    yeah a silver egde would look neat, but i would have to find a good shop to do that, i really dont like the off road guards, and there were not too many black wheels that were light weight and looked good, that y i went after these they only weigh 21 pounds each for being 17x9

    How do you like the all pro leaf pack? Have they affected your load carrying capacity at all?

    by the way....nice setup.
