    Recently upgraded the stock chrome 16" wheels with 17" TRD Sport wheels, and 265/70/17 BFGoodrich KO All-Terrain tires. I purchased it in June. Single owner, garage kept 2008 Impulse Red SR5 with 65000 miles.

    Currently, stock suspension but next mod is replacing the original shocks with Bilstein 5100 front and rear for leveling the truck. This is my daily driver.

    Looks good but your should have looked at 4Runner wheels. I think the 4runners come with WAY better looking stock wheels. You look good though, nice setup.
