New look for my Runner

Got the Tundra TRD front coils on with some 285/75/16 MT's.

I used the .5" part of my cornfed spacers and added it to the 3/8" Bamachem spacer... Got about an extra half inch of lift in the front over the cornfeds.

The Firestone Destination MT's look small as heck compared to my NTG's, 285 vs 295's.... I should have gone with some 305's... oh well... I got these used for wheeling but still had a grip load of thread left for a good price so I can't complain...

If you guys are wondering why OWL, well... the black wall side, the lettering were worn... being aired down and all...

Ended up parting with the Jaos bar, sold it the other day...

So what do you guys think...

Looks way better I love the look of Mt's and 305's would have been cool but the 285's look good

Looks perfect. That's what I want mine to look like once I finally get around to putting my dang lift on. How wide are the wheels?

thanks guys... Not sure from the side shot but does the rear look lower/saggy now? I think I got more than a 1/2" of lift... I remember before my rear from the ground to the fender was an inch higher than the front... Now when I recheck, it is the same height.

The wheels are 16x8 Eagle Alloy 102's with a 3 5/8" BS.

16X8 huh? I was looking about your 16X10s for sale but you need to ship them to nor CA
I like the way your truck looks now. I hate the way the LTD looks sucked up with the stock wheels.

Same here... One thing I just found out about owl is that the whole sidewall is white and there is a small layer of black... There are a few rubs here and there on the sidewall and I can see some white underneath... The bulges of the lettering is showing white too... Looks silly...
