Interesting Tire Rub: LX570 on 275/60/20 KO2 (1 Viewer)

Did they say they found anything wrong with your alignment it would cause the rubbing?

They didn't say specifically if something was wrong or really off. I asked if anything was bent, or broken, etc. and they indicated they didn't see any evidence of that. I might call them and see if there is a print out from the alignment they could send. I probably should have done it sooner. I have not an alignment done since I had the KO2s put on. The only charged me $179 pretty reasonable I think

I drove the it all day today and it felt great and no noise...so what ever was really going on seems to be fixed.

On the bumper color difference- I rubbed the paint off the bumper of my white LX the other day. Was so pissed that I drove straight to the body shop for an estimate. While standing there staring at it, the shop owner and I got in to a conversation about the color difference between the body and the bumper due to one being plastic vs metal.

As an aside, $1500 to respray the bumper cover...View attachment 2427238View attachment 2427239

Ouch - that sucks. Did you decide to go through with it?

Going to get another estimate but yea, gonna get it fixed. I’m still steaming about it 3 days later. Truck is otherwise flawless.

Show me one for the 13-15 LX that doesn’t look like dog s***.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... But I think Dissent or CBI look good on the LX..
