Put the 37's on again

Am heading up the beach for the weekend next week for a mates bday, and was planning on putting the 37's off my Suzuki Serria (Sami over there) for a run up.....But there is about 40 mins of highway driving to get to the beach so I bolted the 37 Iroks on this weekend to see how they drove on the black top.....

Last time I ran them I also put in 3" bodylift to help, I dropped that back to 2" again now, so can't get full lock anymore.....but it's still ok to drive....Am kinda hoping to stuff up the front guards a little from running them so I've got an excuse to use with the missus to get some Cut-out and Flared Fibreglass Fenders.

I was surprised how quiet they actually are, but the handling leaves a lot to be desired (which was expected).......they a very floaty, and aren't balanced properly, so shake a little.......but the 4runner is still very drivable with them on........so can't wait to get them on the beach now!!!

I'll post pics from the trip next week but for the moment heres a heap of poser pics.

17x9's and 35x12.5 MTZ's on the front, 15x10's and 37x14 Iroks on the rear


Jeez I wish I could drive it around all the time like this.....


Aint she gorgeous....


Got width 8)






They hang out the guards a little...

What the odds of you meeting me in Broken Hill for a wheeling trip?

Shame it's so far away.

Um, got any pics of the undercarriage?

Honestly, I almost like the bigger rims with the smaller tires you had on there before better.
