New Treadwright's and Running Boards Removed

I just bought this 99 SR5 4WD with 170k miles a few months ago from my work and been doing some maintenance and cleaning it up. So far I have done a t-belt, drive belts, tensioner, idler, water pump, tune-up and valvecover gaskets. Also did trans flush, front and rear diff. service and transfer case service. Then I removed running boards and ordered a set of Treadwright Warden ATB's in 265/70/16. I read alot of reviews and had a hard time finding anyone having a negative experience with them, so for $400 shipped to my door I figured I'd give them a try. First of all there customer service is top-notch, and the tires aren't far behind. They all balanced without any excessive weights and had low roadforce. Only problem I had was one of them had a pull, rotated it to the back and problem solved. Did an alignment and tracks straight as could be. Oh yeah it helps working at a Toyota dealer, so far aside from tires I've spent $250, anyway on to the pics sorry no before pics.







Don't know if I want to lift it any, I doubt I will due much off-roading other then to some bike trails. Any other mods that really need to be done to these?

As far as mods go I know how that is as I had a highly modified Civic that I built up over the past 6-7 years. That is why I got this just want to clean it up and do a few subtle mods. Tired of riding in a car on race suspension, solid motor mounts and cams that would hardly idle.

I would def. like to tint the fronts just hope I can get just fronts done and don't have to re-do the whole car.
