are you back in SLO yet?
we need to go wheel!

 

Those are looking pretty dang nice

A bit off topic - do you like the pinstripes? Most people I run into just tolerate them - I have yet to find someone who likes those.

 

nice lookin rig, are those 15" wheels? the blackwall goes well with the rest of your truck too

 

That thing is beggin for some black steelies!

i'll be back in slo on labor day.. and i don't have classes on fridays this quarter, so every weekend is a wheelin 3-day weekend!

-Russell

 

hehe, thanks.. on the side note: actually, i don't mind the pinstripes. i don't think it adds anything, but it doesn't detract either. especially with white on black.

thanks yes, those are the stock 15" alloys. I think they look kinda cool. if i'm gonna get steelies, then i'd probably get some with chrome plating like the alloys.

 

I get my BFG's today! I think black-out looks the best.

 

Truck looks sweet man. I can't count the # of times people told me I would get stuck in the mud runnin those BFG ATs. I always had good luck with those tires, have not had any on my Toy but I ran those on my old 76 Scout II(wish I could have kept that when I moved from WA.) and they lasted many miles of street wear also.

 

I've been considering the BFG A/T's as well. A couple of things bother me about
them though: They are speed rated at 98MPH. Not that I drive faster than that
on a regular basis, just don't want the tires to blow when I have the occasional
need for speed.

They seem more like an off-road tire and I worry about how loud they'll be on the
highway were I spend most of my time.

I do want tires that are competent off-road, but they must be good highway tires.

Would Revo's be a better choice for me? I really like the way the BFG's look.

 

Those BFGs don't have a mileage warranty so if you spend more miles on the pavement you should look at the Revos or another A/T tire with a warranty.

 

boogyman,the truck looks nice but you need to get clear turn signals to match the corners and the look will be complete.

 

yeah, i know. but the place i bought the corners from is selling the bumper clears for like $30 + shipping. I've been considering an ARB bumper which is why i haven't dumped the money for them yet. but thanks for the compliment

I checked www.procarparts.com and they want $24 per side for Tacoma clear signals but for 3rd gen Runners you can get a pair for $22 and for another $23 you can get clear corners so under $50 for both sets. I wonder what the big diff is on the Tacomas for them to charge about 2X the price.

 

i got my stuff through www.importvision.com ..looks like they dropped the price though, it's now $24 for the clear bumper lenses. maybe i'll have to get that.

I got my tires from Discount Tire Co. and I got the extra warranty so if I jack up the tires on or off the road they're covered
