Tires and shocks ordered!

Well... Since I will have my 4Runner this weekend I went and ordered 4- 285/75/R16 Cooper Discoverer STTs today,


As well, I orderes a pair of rear shocks for the lift, I chose the 48531-69486 Tokico Blacks from Toyota.

I got my revtek extended studs in the mail today too, so away I go.... Guess first mod is going to be lift and tires....

Have a good weekend everyone... I am off to pick up my runner ( 10 hour+ diver each way )

Thanks guys!

I will not be putting those tires on till the lift is on... I plan on lifting thursday night...

As for the spare, I have 5 rims, just no place to put a 33" spare... I am going to look into a rear bumper with a tire carrier....

Hey BigJohn... I really wanted to give the OEM lift a try... lots of people have put lots of time into it and seem really happy with it... I could have gone OME, but lots of people have done that too... When the truck is all ready to play I would be interested in a little trip to harrison... depending on how hard you like to play I could bring the bronco

Here are some pics of our last trip to harrison

nice... let me know how you like the STT's. they look so much like the Toyo MT's and have a good rep so far.
