Why are these wheels so desirable? Other than the offset, they're just sorta an ugly option.
I’ve got practically new set of “18 Method wheels with KO2s if anyone’s interested.
Light, strong, forged (helps if a rim gets bent), proper offset (you acknowledged), factory backing of material quality. I mentioned in another thread that I've run 4 styles of wheels on a LC, and only the RWs have elicited positive comments from the general public. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

These really caught my eye. I may grab these and I dont know why, I dont neccesarily need new rims or tires yet. But a replacement for these Methods might not be the worst idea.These look like they are in great condition... and they come with the lugs!

I wanted 200 because I have 100 on my 100, but 200 is unavailable
I thought about URJ200 but it’s unavailable too

Thanks! I kinda like MY 200. I hadn’t thought of that.
I had actually started thinking about doing something a little cryptic like 10X20
What do y’all think of that?

If you want "cryptic", why not get standard plates? Very cryptic and less $$. If personalized, then make it something people will recognize. My $0.02.
Periodically I look on Amazon at the undercarriage sprayers meant to be hooked to a gas pressure washer. Hoping would be nice to wash away salt residue, road dirt/grime. Most seem to have 4 spray heads and recommend at least 2500psi.
I have a Comet Static 1700 electric machine mounted on the garage wall I use with a foam gun to wash the truck body. Very convenient to use, but not enough power to meet minimum recommended PSI.
I also have a 3300psi gas pressure washer. Inconvenient (stored in a backyard storage shed), but meets the spec'ed pressure requirement.
The cheapest ones are around $50. It's not a lot of $$$, so I guess I could be MUD's beta tester, but thought I'd ask first just in case someone has used one and can give a 1 to 10 rating with 1 being "would be a good paper weight if it was smaller", to a 10 being "best thing since sliced bread"

Bought a TRD air filter. Thought I should oil before install. Quickly learned it was already oiled from the factory, bone head move on my part. The excess oil was now dripping out of the filter housing. I removed the filter element, cleaned up everything. I now have the filter sitting on a bed of paper towels absorbing all the excess oil.
My question is, I wonder if K&N oil would be OK to use when I need to clean and re oil in the future? The reason is the TRD sprayer is really very sloppy and tends to over saturate areas vs spraying a fine mist. The TRD and the K&N are both oiled gauze. I have a K&N aerosol can that really sprays a fine mist, much better for 'lightly saturating the entire filter'. What do you think? Would the K&N oil work fine? Thx

I know he won't want to bring attention to himself, and he won't want me to do this, but I'm going to say it anyway.My eyes can sorta see this morning...
For those of you who know Mark @Markuson, and those that don't, he is one fo the most caring, honest, and fun guys you'll meet. Never caring about himself, but genuinely wanting to help others, Mark stands above the rest.
Mark has been dealing with some serious trouble of his vision for some time now. The reality is for a guy who just absolutely loves to adventure by way of a Land Cruiser with friends, well... you know what loosing your vision would mean.
I'd ask everyone to just think of Mark, send good vibes, a prayer, whatever works for you his way.

Thank you forkind words, Rob.
@Taco2Cruiser is right thati haven’t posted about it except to notice when i can see better. If anyone is curious—Thankfully it’s not blindness, but a weird condition where multiple overlays/images happen most of the time. Looks like the mess u see if you take off 3d glasses in a 3d movie .. Specialists are looking at vision center of my brain. Spinal fluid shows evidence ofnerve breakdown +also lesions in occiptlital lobe, blah blah blah.
Anyway, it comes and goes and that’s why i haven’t posted much lately. l
If anyone is still reading— Rob (taco)is a war fighter inreal life, but he actually has a very big heart and i appreciate it. Shh. Don’t tell.

I would use OEM paper filters. I ran K&N for years until the MAF went bad. Lost a ton of power with poor shifting from R to D.
Cleaned my MAF put in a paper filter and she drove like new. K&N type filters are not worth the $$$$$.

The TRD air filter is a K&N filter - just re-branded. Any of the cleaning/oiling products designed for the K&N air filter will work for the TRD air filter.
That said, I'd ditch the TRD filter and use one of these: Airaid disposable air filter with pre-filter
Lasts a long time, and no oil to potentially screw things up.

Hope you figure it out Mark. Went thru two detached retinas a few years ago...vision problems can be vexing.
Read both your reply and SQRRL's too. I appreciate it. When I ordered the TRD, didn't realize it was oiled gauze. Just assumed TRD was going to be a beefy filter element. Don't like the K&N, have experienced dust particles in a throttle body before when using a K&N. Dang. Should have done more research before buying the TRD. Will probably just go back to the original element from Toyota. Thanks again
