WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO YOUR 3RD GEN TUNDRA TODAY?

Ordered an OEM pro grill and OEM marker lights. Will post pics when it's done.

 

Installed Beat Sonics amp…..easy install and well worth the money, sounds great. You can also install without removing the HU if you have nimble hands

 

Looks great! Was there a reason you dropped from the 20" rims to the 18"? I'm new to Tundras (always had 4runners before going with a 25' 1794 Hybrid a couple months ago) and have already scraped the rims on my 1794 w/ 20"s a handful of times. I was thinking of maybe going to the 18"s with the WildPeaks AT4W's as well. Just wanted to know your thoughts! Thanks much!

 

Congrats! I installed mine this past week as well. I am super pleased with the install and the result. Makes a big difference in sound. I intended to do before and after vids, but life got in the way.

 

I'm glad everyone has great things to say about the Beatsonics, I'm about to pull the trigger on one.

 

35s and 17s = it’ll never look like you’ve curbed your wheels I’m sure with 18s it’d be hard to scrape the wheels + you can actually get skinny 35s and more positive offset wheels like the BBS’s

 

Or 255/85r17s!

 

I am newer to Tundras as well, but well versed in Tacoma's.

I went with smaller rims for a few reasons....
-More sidewall. I prefer the look, and it keeps the rims safer from rocks/potential curb strikes
-Better offset. TrdOR rim is +60, and these are somewhere in the 40s. ~34-38 is ideal for max clearance for bigger tires IIRC

I didn't want the tires to stick out and have the "bro" look so these are perfect, plus I like that style of rim that Toyota does. The Tacoma variant is similar and I loved it as well.

The wild peak AT4s are one of the best truck tire I've ever used. They aren't loud, have amazing traction in the rain and snow, and look great. You can't go wrong with them, tho, I would shy away from Es unless your really offloading or heavily towing.

 

I put some Matt black inlay in the 1794 Limited Edition stamp on the tailgate. I wasn’t sure if I’d like it but I do!

It rained right after my SIL and I installed them and I was to lazy to wash it before I took the after photos but even dirty it looks good.

 

Not bad. Just had a thought. Anyone ever try to hand paint the tailgate letters? Me personally would like a smooth tailgate. No letters.

 

The Beatsonic is a great first audio mod. After having mine for a few months I upgraded the front corner speakers from the OEM 2" to a coaxial 3.5". The speaker upgrade resulted in cleaner mid (vocals) and high tones. My rig has the non-JBL 9 speaker system (now with 11 speakers).

 

Is it an actual amp or is it just tweaking the sound for it "sounds better"

 

• Maximum output 45W x 4ch (4Ω)
• Compatible impedance 4-8Ω
• Input sensitivity 0.5-5V
• Frequency characteristics 15-80kHz (+0, -1dB)
• Total harmonic distortion 0.01% (1kHz / 4Ω)
• Power supply DC12V (minus ground)
• Power supply voltage DC11V ~ 15V
• Current consumption 0.2A (when there is no signal)
• Fuse used 15A
• Audio input AUX level (RCA)
• Speaker level (supports high level input)

Could have checked myself, noted.

Going to lookup the stock JBL HU to see how much more juice the best sonic pushes vs stock

 

I have the stock JBL. Huge upgrade over stock.

 

Finally got around to washing it.
