These tires came off my 2013 Trail Edition right around 3,000 miles. They have 90%+ tread left, see pics. I am looking to sell as a set but I am also selling the spare since i replaced my tires with Duratracs. I am located in the San Francisco Bay Area and will meet between Santa Cruz and...

If you can get 4 people to commit I will.

The cheapest quote I got from my location in the SF Bay Area to Colonial Heights VA was FedEx ground at $137.70. I checked out shipping quotes online and it will cost around $50 for shipping anywhere in CA. Rates start to increase to the East Coast but are a max of around $150. So expect...

5th Gen Trail Wheels set of 4 - $450 (SOLD) ---SOLD--- These wheels came off my 2013 Trail Edition right around 3,000 miles. They look brand new, see the pic of the back of the rim. No scuffs, scrapes, or any blemishes. I have had them stored in the boxes my Countersteers came in since they...

That's tight! Got a quick question though, do you know off hand how much taller the Gobi is than stock roof rails? I have been considering upgrading but figured theres no way i'd fit in the garage. Does it make the vehicles top clearance 2" taller? Less or more?

All those 18" BFD's look awesome on the 14 Runner. Another nod to Dustin who I dealt with when I bought my Countersteers. He was a please to deal with, very quick to respond and very helpful. I'm glad that there are great products being represented by great people on this forum. Thanks again Dustin.

I totally get what you are saying. I just wonder how much of a marketing gimmick it is vs actual discount. Would you actually have gotten $3000 off or would they have only negotiated $2000 and added the $1000 incentive after? I'm all for incentivizing more people to be owners to keep the model...

Or you would get, "We already factored the incentive in, we can't go lower..." because they can't. At least that would be the response if you started off with a good negotiation.

Maybe I'm the only one who's thinking this way, but $1000 off isn't any real type of incentive, financially or mentally. I mean, 1-2%? On anything $40k or over it should be $2000 to $2500. I mean, in all reality the sales person is going to add that in as part of the negotiation in counting your...

Hi guys, One of the convenience items that I find really annoying is the bluetooth microphone quality in the 4runner. I have a friend with a 2011 TE and I have a 2013 TE. When he's on his bluetooth, or when my wife is driving the 4runner and talking on bluetooth the quality is horrible...

I agree they don't look like great off road tires but, was just curious if those extra grooves were intended to improve the regular A/T's off road performance. The regular wild peak doesn't look like much of an A/T to me when i compare to a bfg A/T. But these look (and that doesn't necessarily...

Can't find pictures of the referenced sponsored jeep. It doesn't make sense to me that they would add grooves to their AT tire to make it more aggressive if they aren't going to sell the tire. I mean, they have a new MT tire out so if toyota or another off road build was being sponsored I would...

Are these tires commercially available? Are they supposed to be "better" in the rough stuff?

Hi Guys, I was trying to figure out what tires are likely to come on the Trd Pro 4runner. In some pics it looks like the 4runner is running a set of dunlops (the pic showing the front shock), but in other pictures like the one attached as well as those from the Chicago auto show it looks like...
