Runner Got some new Shoes!!

Finally got my BFG All-Terrains 32x11.50. Turns out that this size is just big enough to make me really want to lift again and go bigger, but that's for another day... with more money! I'm really impressed with the ride on these things, really not any louder than the (warped) michelins that were on there before. Let me know what you guys think!









Yeah I agree she's too pretty right now, but give it time...

They look great !

You may want to resize, those will be too big for most peoples standard resolution.

And the correct code for imaging is [img][/img]

That looks perfect. I like 32's because they're just a little taller than stock with 31's and a little wider as well. 33's seem to need more $$ invested to either lifting and/or wider rims.

That was the problem I hit, but I think these will do everything I need em to. Nice 1st gen by the way, looks like it's in great shape.

The driver's side is in great shape. The passenger rear quarter panel had rust around the wheel opening so I cut it all out and sealed things up and made a little patch panel for now. I'm just gonna put some fender flares on and that will cover it up. I can't afford to fix it the right way until my 69 Z28 restoration is finished.

I too faced the question: 32s on stock...or lift it and get the 33s. So, I gave in.
About 3" taller from HD Springs, Spacers & Tbars, 33x12.5x15 on 15x8 Black Rock crawlers, four ProComp EX3000 shocks, one ProComp ES2000 Steering Stabilizer, Idler Arm Brace, extended Stainless Steel brake lines, and WARN Premium Hubs (not to mention I now have $2,000 less in the bank) =



ALL THIS FOR BIGGER TIRES?

Nice! Now I know what mine will look like when I get my 32's

I like the way that TRD Decal looks... where did you get it from?

kpooch,

i think you have a great looking truck! one thing that i think could look better is a non-chrome grill. i think a tjm 17 or 15 would look great on your 4runner

Your paint has a nice gloss to it. What paint care products do you use?

Pretty sure I got them from StreetGraphics a while back, for like $20. I've heard that they can't sell them anymore though, or maybe that they just can't advertise them. Anybody else know for sure? http://www.streetgraphics.net/

That's more of a camera/light/just washed it fluke. I mean it's in pretty good shape, but not near as good as it looks in those pics. It's definitely picked up a lot more dings since I took the running boards off, but I'd already broken one of 'em off-road anyways... That being said, I do try to clay and wax it 3-4 times a year. Don't really have any favorite brands, just whatever I have at the time.

and as for you bob... If you wanna pony up the cash for a tjm, I'll gladly install it! Sure would get people out of the way, which would be great for Atl traffic!!
