    I dont think they look too busy at all!!! I like the contrast between the black and chrome. I think it's just the right balance!!

    Holy the brass balls some peeps have. I hope you got the locking lugs!!

    You call the cops or scare him off yourself?!?:fenforcer:

    Like I said, I have these wheels sitting in my apartment in boxes... I had to know the shipping weight in order to get the best deal I could.

    I got the type where each nut is a wavy pattern. You need an adapter in order to use the lug wrench.

    There was a party going on next door which usually includes a lot of drinking. So I turned on the security motion light because last time there were people sitting on my lawn in the dark having a picnic.

    ANYWAY...

    I saw the light go on and I peeked out. Theres a pagoda on my landscaping that just barely blocks the view to the rear wheel of my truck, so initially I didn't see anything. When the light didn't go off, I went outside to check. This guy was squatting at the wheel. I aggressively approached him while shouting "HEY!" and he got up, said "NO! NO!!" and ran off with his tools.

    I guess he was going to loosen them before he jacked it up.


    I think I got an "ok" deal. I think if I searched more I could have gotten them for less. :eek:

    Amazon for rims. Genius! I had no idea they sold rims, but free ship & no tax make them extremely competitive.

    Nice set up, I'm running a 285/70/17 Duratrac and I do have some rub, so thats something you may want to check. Its pretty easy to take care of, just a knife and some time :D

Third brake light LED swap, rear tail lights LED swap from 2011. 3" Toytec (Boss) Coil overs, rear TSB AAL Bilsteins, Light Racing UCA. TRD grill badge, VIPER Smart Start.
    I'm looking at a similar set up, you in van? I live in Kelowna, have same truck, went with Toytech Boss lift, AAL, LR UCA, deciding on 17x9 -12 offset either DC-2 or XD Spy 797 machined black, going with Toyo Open Country A/T 2 @ 285-70-17! You had any issues yet? You have a US addy? Saweeet!! I get a lot of my stuff through Cochrane Toyota aka Tacoma Ranch as I have family that works there so I get employee pricing, if I buy in bc it's Westbank as my roommate has status card so I don't pay taxes, pretty sweet set up.
