    Lotsa shit.
    This is my 2009 2.7 4x4 Tacoma. This is a daily driver/ frequent off-road use build.
    It started life as a work truck from my dad's company and I have always wanted something short like a Jeep (but reliable), so when I got my permit I started to pay this truck off from the company and have made it my first vehicle!
    Mod List:
    3.5 F, 3.0 R lift
    298/75r17 Mastercraft Courser MXT
    TRD powder coated wheels
    Led marker lights
    Led dome light
    Lower grille light bar
    Led backup lights
    CB radio
    Kicker 10" sub
    Rockford Fosgate Punch Speakers
    Kennwood headunit

    That is my dads personal truck I was planning on buying off the company, but I needed a shorter wheelbase for what I want to do with the truck, because the trails around here are so tight, kind of do wish i had the extra cab space though. Edit: note the wheels on the gray truck are on the silver one now, Christmas present, haha.

    Should I remove flares, keep black, or go all silver, bumpers too?

    You have the best looking Tacoma possible. Why screw with it?

    (Of course, I might be biased, because I have the same color scheme).

    I think when I build some bumpers I can keep myself content. I am not a huge fan of the stock black plastic bumper up front, that's about it.

    okay, so I really need some help here guys! i am looking for some input on getting new tires for the truck and I am not sure what to go with for a couple of reasons. first being that my tires i currently have measure out to about a 33.6 inch tall tire (Mastercraft Courser MXT in 295/70r17) and I do not want to go any smaller in height and any thinner in tread width. second issue i am having is i want to go to an all terrain/ hybrid that is a reasonable price and I think I want to go with load range E tires once again, just becasue the compound is harder and i dont mind paying a little more for more tread life, as I usually run low pressure year round on the truck. Essentially what I want is a nice protective sidewall, a decently aggressive all-terrain and a wide tread. this is why i am mainly leaning towards the Falken Wildpeak AT3w, it fits the bill for most of these areas. any input is greatly appreciated and i could really use the help, thanks in advance!
