    Alloy wheels. Probably needs a certain torque spec and a torque wrench.

    I am probably stating the obvious but make sure the tires on the ground before breaking the nuts.

    Since he said someone torqued them on I was assuming he was trying to take them off. But yes, it would be correct to torque them to spec when putting them back on. After typing this though, not sure why you would start the spacer job if you don't have something to torque to spec with since that's a pretty important part of putting on spacers.

    Because I fucked up and I mistook what they did. I thought they had torqued the lug nuts, turns out I was just a bit happy go lucky and needed to calm down and reassess what I was doing. and also, I borrowed my neighbors torque gun to get it to spec. But :)

    I would hope they torqued the lug nuts... I hope everyone always torques the lug nuts when they put them on. Not sure why that's a problem for taking them off and installing spacers though :notsure:

    How did you get them to fit? I'm guessing you have to bend the contacts over to make it like the original bulb?

    Yeah, they were on the truck when I bought it. I was looking for a Tacoma that already had custom wheels. I really like these. I've added the headlights, custom grill, bull bar, new stereo / dash kit, roof rack, etc... ;)

    Haha it's an older Toyota car that was snowed in. They had a note on the window "please don't tow. Will be back during summer to retrieve car" I thought it was the funniest thing ever.

    Toyota has not officially announced a fix. Over a year and still nothing.

    Was just at the dealer having the 15-25 vibe tsb done and they told me they didn't have a fix yet for the leaf spring and then read a little more and said nevermind they are putting a 4 leaf pack on them.
