Ryan, I think you can do away with your spare... don't think it will help you much anymore. Can't wait to see it in person.

Hmmmm...never really noticed that pic... It doesn't actually look like that in person. Must have been the camera angle.
It drives great on the highway. All wheels were balanced, except one. It lost the bead, and got a few rocks inside. Tire spun on the rim, so the weights were in the wrong spot. Guess it shouldn't have been aired down so much.
I was offered more $$$ than I paid for those tires. I actually sold them last wednesday. I am doing some mods on my 4Runner which include 42" Iroks, so I figured I'd go a more realistic 35" size for my daily driver. I'll have pics of the 4Runner in the next month or so, if ya like...

Can you post some pics from different angles? Ie the front, to see how much clearance you have with the drop bracket.

Those look like american racing Victors? What size wheel/tire combo are you running?

That 6" looks good, but I won't take my IFS that high, I will wait till it is paid off and go higher with a SAS!

This goes to show that there are DEFINITELY different buyers in different regions! $8k for a ProComp lift and 33" wheels/tires is steep for a DIYer...in my region at least. However, a question many of us would like to know the answer to - Is the modified vehicle and its parts still covered under warranty (OEM and/or extended)?

Interesting wheel selection for a $37,600 vehicle.

Whole lotta bling bling that's what I'm seein' and for twice the retail price. FYI Those steps are crap, the first time this driver try's to use these like sliders he's gonna be in for a big surprise. They get caught on rocks bend like sheet metal.

Nice mall cruiser! Hope you installed some extra big woofers!
