My Rock Warrior wheel journey

Funny, I've been having to take my KO2s in several times to get balanced. Ive been meaning to get them road force balanced, but the shop I use hasn't fixed their machine yet. I've pretty much got rid of all vibes excuse the occasional shimmy.

Yep that was me. The road force seemed to have done the trick.
 
Just installed my RW wheels and spidertrax 1.25 spacers as Slee recommended. It drives like crap!!!! Horrible. Newer BFG ATS and I have been rolling these wheels on my tundra for a year and they drove perfect. I turn a corner and it continues to pull in that direction until I drive straight for a while. Anyone have these issues???
 
Did this ever get resolved?

I am considering this setup, have the wheels, just going to ware out the current tires.

Truck is a family 100, very concerning problem.

My alignment camber was off. Although without the spacers, the car drove absolutely perfect, and with the spacers it was insane. I have had them on for a couple months now and it drives ok. On the highway, it drives really straight. In town, I hate how it steers. It feels like it wanders. It wants to return to forward after turning to go straight much more than it does without the spacers. It seems like nobody else has an issue with this setup. I am very sensitive to anything on a vehicle so maybe I should just shut up. This is just my experience, thats all I can say. I would say there is a 90% chance they are coming off and I will be done with spacers.
 
@92LXAZ I love how your wheels turned out, especially the black rings and TRD lettering. I'm in the process of putting Rock Warriors on my wife's LX470 and have been trying to think of a way to protect the spare in the factory spare location. I saw the cardboard liner you made, but that wouldn't last long where I am. What did you end up doing to protect your spare?

Thanks, yes they turned out well. Yeah the cardboard was a dumb idea, even here where it's dry. Didn't do anything. I don't think there's much of a way to protect it. I just washed it before I put it on. Maybe bag it up if really serious or find a legit spare tire cover and cut a hole for the cable?
 
I realize this thread is oldie but...call it a goodie. Great write up, thank you. Love the tire wheel combo and having the extra bulge is a perfect touch. Cheers
