Magnetic Gray Metallic-MGM (1G3) Picture Thread

Got the icon stage 5 installed!

 

How do u like those rb20 running boards? Debating on getting a set

 

I know this is a stretch but has anyone seen a MGM with everything color matched but the bottom grill surround?

I’m getting rid of chrome and I have caps and bulge done but thinking of blacking out or painting bottom grill surround to avoid the crazy cost of whole new grill.

 

MGM looking good over Imogene Pass.

 

What kind of wheels? Size of tire? Lift? I'm going for a similar look.

 

He has a “build” thread to check out -

They are Raceline Gauge 950B 18x9 +18mm offset with 295/70R18 Falken Wildpeak AT3w and a 3/1 lift. More details are in my build thread (thanks for linking that, @AZBoatHauler) but let me know if you have any questions on it.

 

Stock wheels and tires...I did add 1 1/2" spacers.

 

Nicely done!

It will look even better with upgraded tires. But IMO just let that stock rubber wear out first.

 

My 2015 just earning its keep!
And I mean hauling too.

6000 miles in 2 weeks half of that towing this trailer.

 

@AZBoatHauler what size and type tire do you have? Looking for something similar to go on my stock TRD wheels. Great pics!

 

Thanks. I’m running 275 70 18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Ive put 25k miles on them and I’m very impressed with everything about them other than on-road braking in wet conditions. They are getting louder as they wear but I’m happy enough I’ll probably replace them with another set in 10k miles or so. Just trying to decide whether to stick with the same size or bump up to 285 70 18. I won’t go bigger than that unless I re-gear.

 

Nice! I'm in the same boat as you. Ideally I'd like to go with a 285/70r18 but that is a pretty limited size and RG's are one of the few tires out there available in that size. However, your truck looks really good with the 275/70's which is what I'll probably go with. I'd be looking at a 3 peak rated tire. Looks like you're in AZ, assuming you don't have much experience in snow with the RG's?

 

Correct - I have no experience with these in snow or ice.

 

What did you do to the exterior handles? Since it's platinum, did you buy new ones, or give plastidip a go?

$500 is steep for some new handles, but I'm still contemplating. Then again, I'd rather put on lift and tires...

 

What kind of wheels/offset and tires you have on this thing? I like the aggressive look, but still within the wheel wells. This is what I'm going for as well. I assume you have the standard TRD PRO lift?

 

Does anyone have pics of stock 18’CM with fender flares? I like the stock wheels/rims on mine but was wondering what flares would look like. TIA

 

Took them off and painted myself

 

What brand of rims are those please?

 

Hey Vicky, they are Raceline Gauge 950B 18x9 +18mm offset. Let me know if you have any other questions on them.

 

Thanks, gonna look them up. Really like them...

 

That's great news! How has it held up? I bought some AJT stuff and painted the plastics on the inside to dress it up. It's done well, but wedding rings scratch the regular auto paint...sun rocks and chrome isn't too sticky.....that's why I also how it's held up.

 

New to this thread, heres a pic of my tundra limited

 

Few weeks ago visiting some fam. About two weeks after some serious polishing and ceramic wax.

 

Amazing!
