No issues Yes those are the tires that I am running. I have had zero issues with rubbing.

Regular changes I change the oil every 5000 miles. I have gotten the transmission flushed and refilled at 130000. I also change the front / rear differential and transfer case oil every 40000 miles. Hope that this helps.

Totally agree Agree! Have wanted to add mods, but time, money, and other priorities have gotten in the way constantly. At the very very least, I want to get rid of those running boards!!! With the kids- I dont see that happening though.:help:

Regular detailing There was a time when I used to wax it twice a year. That became hard with little kids. Nowadays, I get it professionally detailed once a year and the treatment seems to last for the whole year. The detailer uses high quality products. I then wash it regularly by hand.

Couldn't agree more I couldn't agree more. Doing the basic maintenance has definitely helped. BTW, love your trail 4R.

True Very true ! :juggle:

Tires Am using Michelin ms2 LTX I believe (can confirm tomorrow). These tires are bigger than the factory originals. But, the ride is great. I swapped my Yokohamas out at 60 K and put these on. The first four lasted until 153K (almost 90K). Just put these on (exact same ones as the ones that...

Still on the original Yes, still on the original shocks and control arms. Have only done the regular maintenance and changed the tires once. My mechanic has not recommended that change as yet. Why did you get your changed? Was there an issue with the Subaru's shocks and control arms? Did you...

Thanks! :rofl::keyboard:

Been a while since I logged on here and posted anything. Was doing my summer cleaning and figured I would post. My 2011 T4R, Limited has 154000 miles and still going strong. Not a single issue! Love it!

Toyota 4Runner 2011 Limited Grey Rear Bumper Cover Alas, it happened! I bumped into a car as I backed up on my drive way and now have a cracked rear bumper that I need to replace. Does anyone have a 2011 Limited Grey rear bumper cover? If not, can anyone direct me to where I can buy one without...

Lately, Toyota and Honda seem to be recalling a lot of vehicles with defective Takata manufactured airbags that have canisters that can function defectively causing shrapnel to fly into the passenger's face and body. Toyota widens air bag recall, warns passengers I have not seen the 4 Runner...

Thank you Jb that makes sense.

Thank you for the input guys! Very helpful!

Hello all, I have a quick question. Now that I have changed the tires to Michellin MS2s (275/55/20) do I have to change the original spare (Yokohama- 245-60-20)? If I do not, will it cause problems with the AWD system if one of the tires is of a different size? Any input is appreciated! CJ
