    1st Toyota and loving it.

    I just bought a 2016 SR5 4x4 tundra and I love it! It bone stock but for long as I'm ordering parts for it now. It is going to be a project ahead with wheels, tires and lift coming first. I'm a Ex-Ford F-150 eco trash owner and loving this 5.7 Trundra.

    Welcome! What are your thoughts on wheels, tires and lift?
    Size, style, color brand?

    If you check out the links in Sean's and my signatures you will find some helpful information.

    I'm thinking a set of 18" Fuel throttle wheels with Toyo 33"s and a 3" toy tech lift and coach builder 3" shackles. Just not sure if the tired would rub.

    Welcome from CO.Your new SR5 leaves you a lot of room for improvements to DIY. Going to get a lot of ideas here. The SR5 is a great platform to build from. Congrats.

    I see you had 35" toyo's on your truck. Did they fit with a 3" lift? Or what lift did you go with?
    Thank you.

    How does that truck run with that supercharger? I bet it's mean. What kind of mileage do you get with it?

    My last truck had Toyos. They were ok. I had a 3" OME kit on my last one. You can stuff 35" stock ... @jberry813 did it.

    The computer is still learning..I think but I've been getting mid 16's mixed.

    Oh, it's a panty dropper dude. Lol

    Kinda. No need for glass though, just need to remove fender aprons. Aftermarket front bumper will help, but not required.
    You just can't be scared to use a BFH and a cutoff wheel.
