Looks great! Thinking about the black headlight mod?
thinking about it? yes!!! doing it? i'm still a little scared. this is actually my dad's truck, but i do all the work on it and i get the pleasure to picking out the parts for him.
Did you put the tires on the rims yourself? Truck looks great.
Ah, and I like the exhaust. I rarely like side exit like that too.

i wish i could have done the mounting and balancing myself. that would save us a lot of money. i took the wheels to a local tire shop and bought the tires there plus the alignment.

this is somewhat a custom setup i had done. it's a corsa muffler made for a yukon/tahoe that i found a great deal on ebay, brand new. the tip is also corsa, but the rest are mandrel bend tubes pieced together.
this is a bad video clip. i need to get a better one done, but this should give you an idea of how it sounds. it's very tame while cruising, no drone at all. when you really get on it, it screams for help.
Are those 20's or 18's? Man they look good on that truck.
thanks for the compliment. the wheels are 20x9 with 33x12.5x20 tires.

i purchased the wheels online from http://tomzwheels.com for $819 shipped to my door. you will have to email them and have them price match their ebay prices. the tires i went to a local les schwab tire center and got a pretty good deal.

it's very minimal over stock, just a slight hum. IMO, it's very quiet for a MT tire. however, they do not handle anywhere as good as stock, but this is a given for MT tires. you will have to adjust your driving habits while taking turns and such.
Do you experience any tire rubbing? Will the 2.5" Readylift kit eliminate that?
i haven't really had time to check for any tire rub. as of now, there is no tire rub that i can see, but i have to get a closer inspection to be 100% sure.

yes, the traction control light flashes when i get on it hard. i'm taking it to toyota to get this fixed in a couple of days. it has something to do with the vsc having to be zeroed in. basically, it means the computer needs to know that the suspension and tire setup has changed. once it's adjusted then it should run like stock. in most cases it will, but there are a few members here that still problems afterwards.
