    these little trucks make little tires look bigger and I'm not complaining. Next set will have to be a true 35x12.5r17. If you are thinking about the km3's get them, best tire I've ever had

    (After measuring rear end with another 2nd gen with a 2" block, I confirmed the rear is 3" on the lightest setting on these Icon RXT leaf springs)

    2012 Rc Tacoma 4x4
    New(to me) 2012 Tacoma Rc 4x4 owner here, been lurking for a while trying to learn all I could before I found the right tacoma. Settled for an auto, but am actually quite happy with the way it drives. This is my 3rd rc, had a 1992 pickup, and a 1997 tacoma. Love these trucks and looking forward to doing some minor mods. New 235/85/16 Grabber ATX, cheesy running board removal, and tweeter/speaker upgrade done this week. If I can figure it out I will try and get some pics posted.

    Hey can someone take a picture of the screws that hold the tail lights in ? I forgot what they look like and I have a huge bucket of leftover toyota bolts in front of me.

    Going from stock 245's to these 285's with the runner wheels added a good bit of weight and slowed me down some but as far as the tires go i love them, they are quiet on the high way but they dont feel soft. Quality tire!

    I just have that bad vibration on deceleration and mine is 5 speed. From what i read on here, a drive shaft spacer will fix the problems i have, i believe.
