Welcome to the Official SoCal BS/ Shenanigans, Tundras and What’s Happening Thread

AGREE....

 

Glad @Sunnier tagged me then!

Lower offset = sticking out further. It’s really a number to position where the hub mounting location is on the wheel in reference to the center line of the wheel.



Does the Pro suspension add any lift?

For reference I’m on 5100s. No lift in the rear, I believe the second clip in the front for 1.75” or so of lift with 35x12.5x17 Toyo AT2.



I did the cab mount (body mount) chop, cut the bottom of the front bumper end caps, and added a .5” bumper shim to push the front bumper forward. Oh and cut the bottom edge of the rear front wheel well where the fender stuck out.

 

Yes, pros sit roughly 2" higher in the front.

 

Good to know! Thanks


@greentrbo95gst
With the pro suspension you’d gain enough lift in the front to clear 35” tires with the appropriate wheel offset and some cutting

 

The Pro adds 2" to the height. BMC/Shackle lift adds another 1". Based on your info I should be ok with 17x9 +18. Will +0 stick out too much.
I am glad you were tagged as this is my first truck and first truck build. Trying to learn as much as I can, but so many different people have so many different opinions.

 

Yeah, 17x9” with +18mm would fit nicely. You’ll likely still rub fender liner and the corner of the front bumper without a bumper shim if you’re on the stock bumper.

 

so cool....

 

yeah back to wheels push out...on one of the overlander channels I saw +25 - +18 was the sweet spot for our ladies not stick their shoes out.

 

I would lovevto get one of those. thinking 703's not sure if I want the black or the bronze.

 

Bahia Blue FTW.

 

Needs more pinstripes.

 

Man oh man I wish those were available a few months ago when I bought my Methods. I love the blue haha.

I know I know! They’re coming

 

I might've saved a lot of cash if they'd had those when I bought my wheels. But, maybe not.... LOL

 

I kind of like your setup. +0 offset is the contender after looking at your truck.

 

Thank you! I love it, they stick out just the right amount for my liking.

I cut my front bumper ends aggressively to avoid any rubbing, and it’s worked. They rubbed the whole ride home from the tire shop though haha. Also pulled the front lower wheel well liners.

 

Save those liners. I've reworked and reinstalled mine in the glass fenders. They help a LOT with keeping mud off the back of the headlights and off the tail lights and wiring.

 

Nice! Did you need to add rubber or did you only use the oem liner?

I only ditched the very bottom piece right behind the fog lights. The main fender liners are there

 

I tossed those same lower pieces. I didn't have to add anything, just used the OEM liners and trimmed 'em a bunch. They sit much higher than originally.

 

@greentrbo95gst this is how 8.5” width with 0mm offset and 35x12.5 tires fit

 

Do you have any pics Warren? How did you attach them?

 

I'll try to get some pics for ya John. I used self tapping truss head screws on the engine side of the wheel well. On the outside the liners were just a press fit, snug to the glass.

 

Hey everyone, just stoping by to hope everyone is safe. Just saw this pic on Facebook and it sucks to see a tundra down. They didn’t have info on the driver but I hope they made it out safe.

 

Oh damn, hope they’re ok!

 

damn... hope everyone was safe. where was that

 

Dang, looks like they ruined a perfectly good RTT. Seriously though, I hope the occupant/s walked away.

 

Not sure all I see that they say 60fwy

 

Wow, me too! First time I’ve seen a pic illustrating what I’ve read about the dangers of a rollover of a CrewMax.

I thought the same.

 

Looks like some kind of TC with a jeep

 

Gotta love frozen lakes in Cali!!

 

Cool! Where is this?
