Let's see your first gen - photo thread

I have zero experience with paint. Maaco will do it for $400. Seems reasonable to me.

 

I put those on mine too. Without the flares though, they should be nearly a perfect fit. I would think spacers might put them out too far.

 

Just added the last pieces before sending off to my son next weekend... wheels (2019 4Runner) and tires (265/70/17 Falken WildPeaks AT/3)

 

MDJ, a few more shots for you, clear day, later afternoon sun, dappled shade :

 

Beautiful pictures of a nice truck and what looks like some nice country.

 

I just wanted to post my updated truck here...just because...

 

Looks fantastic!

 

Good lookin rig!

 

Did I see that you might be headed this way for a location change?

 

Where's that? The wife and I have family abroad and have talked for a while about this and that. Probably stay here as long as nothing pulls me away too hard. I keep getting told how family needs help on the farm and such, but I'm not sure I could stand it.

 

North Idaho--Coeur d'Alene, to be exact.

 

Ahh yes. We have family up that way and I try to talk my wife into moving there every once in a while. Haven't done it yet though. Not sure if could live without a desert, but her family has some pretty nice logging land that could keep me busy for quite some time. Beautiful country.

 

I still say those are the best looking wheels that I have found. Vin over at SCS is the man.

 

I just wish they had more options without the fake beadlock... (says guy with fake beadlocks).

 

I like the fake beadlock simply for the outer black ring--but I do wish it had drain slots built in. Ice and snow can play hell with balance. Haven't had that issue with these yet, but have some XDs on my other truck that can definitely be a little shakey when ice builds up.

 

Happens with mud as well. I had Axis Regulators for a few years and they'd get caked up. Also constantly had to fight off water marks from water accumulating, which was shitty on flat black wheels.

I like the look, I don't really like adding 2lbs of decorative bolts to the outside edge of the wheel though.

 

Pull the ring and place small washers behind each bolt?

I have similar balance issues but mine is with rocks getting lodged in these stupid Coopers.

 

Might work. I haven't actually checked to see if the the ring is removable. I know it is not on many of the fakes.

 

I'm a Cooper fan, but in anything other than "E" loads, their sidewall design (aesthetic) is boring. Scored a set of lightly used "C" BFGs for the Tundra. It will be interesting to see the difference. So far, I'm impressed with how quiet they are--I was expecting a bit more howl.

 

You might end up hating those then. My SCS Ray 10's hold water every time I drive in the rain. It's annoying. I do like the black ring but hate the beadlock.

 

I’m looking for the right color Acrylic Lacquer to freshen up my ‘Patrick Editions’. Trying to find the OEM color match.

 

hey, what are you doing in my town?!? Thought I was solo here in CDA. But seriously @KarmaKannon , CDA sucks....tell your friends

 

I'm in CDA all the time. Some great independent donut shops AND a harbor freight? My kinda place.

 

Not to mention awesome food trucks and craft beers

 

No kidding--sounds like we might need to hit Daft Badger and compare trucks. Well, in a couple of weeks. I'm gonna be down for a couple of weeks--tonsillectomy tomorrow.

 

Love their nachos. Anytime!

 

Looks fantastic! I love the color.

 

I hate you, your skill level, Toyota know-how smarts, and accessibility to giant shops with lifts.....but I love your truck

 

Don’t worry, I hate myself
Don’t even ask my wallet how it feels about me
