I am on the same 'fuel tank' quest. So when you do the carbon canister move, lets talk and compare notes!

Oh BTW......WELCOME!


BTW why not list your mods in your sig. I am curious about your rims! Also the skid plates are a MUST NEED addition....

I'm pretty sure the rims are Thugs by American Racing. They made them with 5 x 150 bolt pattern, in 18 x 9 with 12mm offset.

I was considering getting those before the TRDs, but I'm pretty sure you would need a lift for 12mm offset rims...I could be wrong, I have been before.

Have a list of mods would like to do but have to save up for them. You are right about skid plates and Lockers being a NEED. Will list mods on sig when get more time.

You are 100% correct! 2" Old Man Emu lift and still have a very slight rub on full lock.

I bet it does. Looks way better from the pics alone. I'll be getting some black rims soon. Just not sure which yet. I'm talking to a guy, and hopefully they can make something out of steel that I've been looking for. No luck yet.

Enjoy the wheels.

That's only a 32.1" tire, and it rubs you say? Where is the rubbing...on the swaybar in front on full turn or on the mudflap on full turn?

Inquiring minds want to know what the 12mm offset did.

A big thanks to Slee for the quality work they did this week - 2" OME lift, ARB Sahara front bar with Warn 9.5XP, 295 70R17 TG on 17" TRD wheels and a set of their sliders. The work was done as promised and on time.... quality is excellent and I would recommend them to anyone here.

Next work will include a roof rack, 10lb CO2 bottle, Rasta skid plates and maybe ARB rear lockers.
