    New member, first post: In the front end of November I bought a wrecked silver 08 taco TRD DC LB. After lots of heating, pulling, paint, and parts, she's almost done. Now for the arduous task of my wheel/tire combo for my 3" lift (still debating on a brand). Any who, 18's? 20's? As long as they're black and the tires look good I'm open to suggestions. Thanks.

    XD monsters look real good with some 33" BF Goodrich All Terrains, as far as 3" lifts go, i'd absolutely recommend the full OME lift kit, we've got 5-6 guys in our club including myself with OME suspension, and its amazing.
