$300....I just picked up a set in DFW.

 

[wngrog]

Anyone want them? If so I'll let him know.

 

[Bomar]

s*** man I have them all boxed up. I have 3 sets of wheels down stairs. 2 sets of LC and a Jeeper set.

I like the flatter center cap. I want a set to send out to Black chrome to match the badges on the 100

lou needs them

 

[MEMCruiser]

Mardis trying to decide in tires.

@Bomar he said he would sell them. What going rate?

So that is a stock wheel size with a stock lift? Not sure whats wrong with me but i like the stock wheels.

 

[wngrog]

TRD 17" wheels with 285s

Probable 1.5" bigger than stock if I was to guess

 

[Bomar]

Mardis go 275.70.18 in what ever tread you want and you will be good with or without a lift. I would chose Toyo AT2.

 

[wngrog]

That's tall and skinny huh?

Are the 2015 LC OEM wheels 17 or 18?

I know the TRD are 17"

 

[Bomar]

All us spec LCs 18

Ive got a buddy with cooper at3. Very quiet ride.

 

[Bomar]

Do you want a tire that will hold up in this terrain? Handle the service road sidewalls? If you want a quite ride go Michelin AT MS and you will be good for 90k. You want this truck to do a lot....but if you want a good solid tire get a 3 ply sidewall AT tire. (BFG KO2, Nitto Terra or Trail, Toyo AT2)

I have not seen a set of Coopers leave this lime stone without chunks out of it looking like a usage tire. I had to get rid of a set after one trip to park. Same terrain through out area.

^ This. 275/70/18 BFGs are going on the wife's 200 in the not too distant future. They look great on the other 200 in town that has that setup.

@MScruiser how do i level the front end of the truck out WITHOUT lifting it?

 

[MEMCruiser]

Beno has the parts. @ntsaint

You can buy the OE spacers from @beno. They will bring the front end up 3/4". You will have to remove your shocks to install them, including fxxxing with the KDSS. It's not hard. The spacers were around $75, IIRC.

 

[ntsaint]

When you say 'fxxxing w the kdss' what does that mean exactly? Really don't want to mess too much w that. You want to consult ?

 

[MScruiser]

Sure, Andy.

You will have to open both KDSS vales 3 full turns. This will open the system, and allow you to manipulate the KDSS arm on the front swaybar. You will most likely have to drop the LCA to drop the front struts low enough to install the new spacers. When you are done, park the cruiser on a level surface, and rock it back and forth a few times to even out the hydraulic pressures. Then, close the valves.
