Those sliders look great. Every time I see this rig it looks better.

I had some 35x14.50x16 on my chevy during the winter so i wouldnt ruin my chrome wheels and i decided to put them on my toyota to see if they would clear and i was amazed that they accually fit and do not rub under normal driving and really not that bad with lite off roading. But I got tired after i got them on and didnt feel like taking them off. so this is how it looks as of right now. plan on running it like this until i can buy sum 315x75(35x12.50's which will be in like 2 months. I may put the black wheels and swampers back on until then but i really cant make up my mind.

I like the steelies too, but if you do buy a set like that I would go with the Mickey Thompsons without the fake beadlocks.

they r both decent. I wouldnt call it a dog and i wouldnt call it a power house. I think having a stick shift really helps out.

I was thinking about adding a plate to the ends on the frame side and weld that on. Here is a pic if its not to small.
