    New member from California. I have a 2008 CrewMax 4x2. I thought about trading it in, but the truck only has 98k miles, and with the current premium on trucks/Tundras I decided to just add mods. I'll be getting it to 6" lift soon (parts are on order), and will be running 35s.

    And here's some pics from after adding a 2.5 leveling kit back in 2011. There have been some recent changes, but I just wanted to stop in and say hello to everyone! More to come...

    Mods in these pics:
    • 2.5" leveling kit
    • Eagle Alloy 079, 18 x 9, -12 offset (currently have Monster XD 778, same specs except +18 offset, just installed over the weekend to prep for the 6" lift)
    • Falken Rocky Mountain ATS 275/65 R18 (close to stock diameter, but currently running BFG K02, same size, will be replacing with BFG K02 325/65 R18 once the lift is complete)

    Thanks everyone. Great to be here! So cool to see responses from coast to coast, and even Alaska! That's always been one of my favorite things I love about the web, being able to reach people around the world, and in this case fellow Americans across the country who love Tundras!

    Thanks! Love Sandy Eggo. I'm not too far away in Temecula. My work has offices in SD, and although I'm 100% remote, I stop in from time to time. The wife and I were also just in La Jolla last weekend for a mini getaway.

    Be careful ! There's a lot of wine tasting going on in Temecula.
    It's been ages since I checked in there ~ I wouldn't recognize the place today it's grown so much.
