Maybe see if TRD makes a rear anti-sway bar for your work truck!
I hear you, but I'm kind of the opposite. With my Tundra (not my work truck) I tend to just cruise around, then hopping into the Yaris I want to zip about and zoom through the corners! All the things that my Tundra is not good at.
The Tundra is lifted, the Yaris will be lowered.
The last set of rims that I posted with the red center cap is what I will get. I'm going to go with a 17" rim with a 215/40/17 tire. Compared to stock (185/60/15), my speedo will be 0.125% too slow. Perfectly acceptable. There's a very good tire size calculator on
Tires & Wheels - 1010tires.com the absolute tire and wheel authority that allows you to enter your stock tire size then experiment with up to 4 different sizes.
I'm still researching tires and possibly a set of lowering springs (without sacrificing the ride quality too much). A little firmer would be OK. If I drop it about 1", the new tires/wheels will fill in the wheel well real nice.
I'm going along the lines of a few subtle red accents. The red TRD rear sway bar is almost invisible, then with the red center caps on the rims and then I'm thinking of red lowering springs and painting the front brake calipers red too. Nothing too 'ricey' just light touches to keep a clean look to it. I think the red works well with the Flint Mica paint color. Gotta have fun, right?
