    Need help deciding on a tire.

    Hey guys, thanks to everyone who gave some input. Sry about the delayed response, work travel had me tied up. Again, I gotta say that what I'm primarily after is comfort while driving on the hwy but yet assurance of capability. Did a little more research and I've narrowed it down to...

    Need help deciding on a tire.

    So the title says it all. I'm at the point of needing to replace my stock tires soon. I've got about 52k on them now. (Pretty good IMO). I've been reading up on how some people have been going with the Michelin and Coopers. Great tires but I'm not quite sure of my need for tires that aggressive...

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    So this can be done?! I started research about this a year ago. Was wanting final confirmation from a local DSHIP and they were telling me that the stock computing system would be thrown off. Is there a write-up or is it as simple as plug and play? Also, did you use the '14 SR5 Tail Lights or...

    Things you did not know about your 4runner

    So, I've known about the deicer for a while but I'm curious as to how well it works once you replace the wipers w/ something aftermarket like Rain-X/Bosch wipers. Or should I just run OEM replacements…?:noidea:

    36K - Ayúdame (Help me)

    Guys, I'm inching ever so close (34K) to that 36K mark. While I've taken good car of the rig and have taken it on a few adventures, I want to obviously make sure that I up-keep my 5th Gen. I personally haven't had any issues with my rig, but is there any general/major stuff anyone can recommend...

    '11 5th Gen 30K Svc - Do's/Don't

    Ok, let me start saying that yes, I searched the Forum for about an HR for the answer b4 I posted this. I found nothing specific to the 5th Gen, hence the post. :smashputer: Went to my local Stealership and got the print out for the 30K Service and this is what I was quoted for roughly $260...

    Hood replacement

    So I second FITERMA in wanting the scoop. I'm going to follow the link that ANTMAN supplied but I can imagine that this is also possible for the '12 SR5 considering it shares a hood with the Limited, right?

    They Fit!

    I 2nd the rubbing/mileage question. Also, has anyone ran these tires on their SR5? I'll be needing replacements soon enough and want to go with another A/T tire thats a little more aggressive than the stocks that come with the rig. Also, does turning the BFG A/Ts inside out (white letters on...

    MOD theft?

    I second the request for purchase details. I can use that to drive in the HOV lane and no longer have to risk popping my blow up doll from heat building up in the cabin. That and not having to ride next to someone/thing who looks like this all the time... :-O

    Becoming a New Englandah Yea, this past snow fall was a first for me. Idk if anyone saw some of my other post in the NE Group tags but I'm originally from the South and a recent college grad who relocated here for work. That said, being from the south, theres practically no need for 4x4...

    New England B.S. Thread

    Haha, I second the train horn. Its something I've wanted after watching those train horn pranks/scares on youtube and like Billiy said, for the idiots on the road and so they know I'm serious. Billy, that may be another convo we'll have to have.
