2016 Magnetic Gray Metallic CM - Progress

Hey everyone! I've officially had my CM for just over a week and lots of progress so far on her. Still have a bit more I want to do, but here she is after we finished up Sunday night. I couldn't be happier with how it turned out! I'll be blacking out all the emblems tomorrow and eventually putting on a TRD Pro grill and color matching the bumpers.

 

6" RCX lift, 20x12 -44 Fuel Maverick, 35x12.50r20 Nitto Exo Grapplers.

 

Wicked!

 

Thanks!

 

That thing looks so sweet man! Nice work. Did you have to trim much for those wheels to fit?

 

Bad ass !!! Where can a find the steps like that style

 

Thanks man! I did have to trim a decent amount from the bumper and fender liner. It isnt noticeable to someone who doesnt know what theyre looking at but we did a really clear job at it. I still have just a very slight riub in full lock/reverse that I need to trim some more off of.

I got these from RC. They are the 3 step side bars. They were way cheaper than NFAB and any other brand that offered this style. I love them!

 

Great looking Tundra as is. Are you considering fender flares and if so which ones? I've been waiting for a group buy.

 

Thank you! Maybe down the road, but I love the negative offset look so it wont be for awhile. I've always had the buchwacker pocket flares on all my other trucks and loved those.

 

The Boss !

 

I occasionally get mud, snow in my truck thrown up in my face from my tires when the window is down. I've learned to keep my window up after the mud in the teeth issue. heh heh

 

Just a few more recent pics of her! These Nitto Exo Grapplers are incredible in the snow. Next mod will be the raptor light mod and exhaust.




Just for shits and giggles, here's my old M3. Definitely miss the speed, but barely got driven.

 

I found out that my Nitto M/T Grapps are very good in deeper snow at 20psi. They suck big time on packed snow/ice which is not much of a surprise.

 

Nice truck!

 

Yeah, I've had a few diff MT's in the past. These Exo grapplers are like a hybrid AT/MT tire with snow flake rating. I absolutely love them.

Thanks!

 

I definitely like the EXO's. The EXOs would be better suited for me. Probably a lot better tread life too.

 

Yeah, they have minimal road noise, aggressive patterns, and a tread life of 50k.

 

Do you have any pics of the front end where everything was trimmed? Looking at a 6" Readylift for my 2016 CM 4x4 and am curious how much needs to be trimmed to fit 35's with the same offset rims. Thanks

 

nice!

 

Truck looks good man. I don't know if I'd color match the bumpers and stuff. I think chrome looks good on the gray like that. Either way, nice truck.

 

Badass truck dude!!! Love it.

 

Good to see nice MGM trucks! The //M is nice too!

 

I really like your ride!!

 

If you get a upgraded upper control arm you can actually ask the alignment guy. I recommend a local lift kit alignment place to do it. Ask them to align it so your caster is adjust to the point you dont have to cut anything if any very minor plastic trimming. You can adjust your caster so your tires clear better. Just my advice. It's how to do a lift kit correctly.

 

Got to kill the chrome!
