Show us your Silver Sky Metallic

Welcome to TW. Does It matter the color or make of the cap? A.R.E. Z series

 

Dang! That looks great. I love the Z series, however it may be a little out of my price range.

 

Century topper, made by Leer, half the price.

 

gotta search Craigslist. As long as you aren't in a rush, you will find what you are looking for. I'm $600 out if pocket on this one.

 

Dang! Thats great. I look at least once a week but I don't seem to find many short bed toppers in Florida. Do you have a photo looking at the side of your truck? Thanks!

 

All I could take ATM. I'll try to edit with some better ones later. Everything is off the truck right now for paint, frame/ slider touchups, and a thorough look over, clay bar/wax, and cleaning before I wheel it again.

 

2015 SR5, leveled (3” in the front; 2” in the back), side bars, 17x9 mayhem warriors and 265 Wrangler Duratracs

 

My Silver Sky under a helluva Florida Keys sky!

 

Bilstein 5100s x4 // OME 884 Springs // 265/70r17 BFG KO2s // Softopper // Stepside bars that need replacing with sliders // looking for new wheel soon @SCSPerformance to get on @JeffP213's level!

Up for the forum: What wheels do you think would look good on this 2015 silver sky metallic taco?

Also may do a 1.25" spidertrax spacer (assuming all critiques of that will be handled by proper torquing, loctite, anti-seize, and rechecking after 200 miles and re-torque every tire change if needed)

Thought and opinions welcome: insert popcorn eating gif here

Thanks TACOMA WORLD. Love this forum!

 

Not DCSB but got the cap.

 

Beautiful truck and pics. Plenty of wheels to choose from, and if you get aftermarket wheels you shouldn't need wheel spacers. My choice on wheels was more directed towards weight and strength. I wanted strength without a heavy wheel. Getting 18mpg with 285s duratracs. Not as good with my MTs but still get aaround 15-16mpg with my wheeling set

 

15 Sport 3" Pro Comp lift w/ 33", TRD exhaust, and a cold air intake.

 

Killer! I ended up placing an order for an ARE CX with vented windoors, carpeted headliner, fold down front slider, and roof tracks. I really liked the Leer 100XR but the price difference with the options that I wanted was nearing a prinsu rack, which I am definitely planning on installing!

 

Mine is the SnugTop XtraVision. Yeah, not cheap.

 

I really like the look of your wheel / rim setup, mind sharing the details? Also, was looking at your old build. Being a Florida native, that decal is pretty cool lookin, where did you find that?

 

Not a problem whatsoever. The wheels are FN countersteer type X 16x8 with what I think is 3.8 backspace. Not positive on the backspace. It's just a little less than 4. That exact color on those wheels you will not find. I painted them myself. Tires are Goodyear duratracs 285/75/16. And yeah I loved that decal. That was made by @CBoy808 out of Hawaii, he does good work on custom decals. If you do decide to look into FN wheels, I highly recommend them, I now have 2 sets of wheels from them and Dustin from FN has she best costumer service I have probably ever dealt with.

 

I must say, that color looks absolutely killer on the SSM. How did you paint them?

 

Thanks, I Sanded them down and used engine paint, I tested on my spare wheel first
