I have had them for a few months and they are great. I have had a chance to drive in anywhere from icy to 12" of snow and the traction is incredible. The only negative (not a big deal) is the noise as I had more of a summer tire previously and the whine of these is louder. This is to be...

does the outlet work but just not enough juice to run the radar detector? If the socket is not working at all, make sure you have the fuse inserted into the adapter that fits in the fuse panel. I originally plugged the adapter into the fuse panel but forgot to put a fuse in the adapter which is...

not really. even though widening would look good it would probably increase the chance of rubbing and I do question the impact long term on where and tear by using spacers. It is a daily driver so keeping it pretty stock. If XREAS wears out I will go with FJ springs and shocks

All, There is always a lot of discussion on tires and sizes, so I wanted to share my experience. I do very little off-roading, but do drive a lot in snow, boat ramps, etc. I wanted a bit more of truck look and feel so I upsized to 265/70/17 General Grabber AT2 tires. I had 265 65 17 Goodyear...

Ddm I have the DDM HID 5k lights. They are unbelievable high quality considering their price. Great connections, long wires and nice tight fit. I highly recommend them. I personally would not go over 5k unless you want the colored look. Only thing I need to get used to is all the pissed...

I am looking to put 265 70 17 Goodyear Duratrac tires on my stock 2006 V8 Sport. I searched threads and believe that there are a few people out there that run them on stock runners. Any rubbing at all? anyone have any pics they can share?

thanks for the info. I at least wanted a ballpark # before letting the dealer give me some line so this helps. the key does work fine, just no power.

I have a 2006 runner with 56k. today I shut the door and hit the lock button on the key fob and no beep. I heard doors lock except for the drivers door. So I fooled with it an the only way the lock would work was with the key. I replaced the battery on the fob and still same thing. Has anyone...

My recent mod is old news for a lot of you members, but I just installed a HID Kit (35w 5000k) and I cannot believe the difference. I have never had HID lights before and I was amazed how much brighter these are. Tbe clarity, range and look is unreal. I went with a DDM Tuning kit that was only...

Stock Ride Another stock ride 2006 V8 Sport Edition. 1st time using low range and locking the center diff. Fantastic suspension and 4wd system for a versatile SUV. Can't wait to get some real tires

Another Maine member Welcome aboard. Another member here from Maine (Westbrook). I also did a led interior conversion, OEM skid plate, silverstar lights plus a K&N filter. Owned the runner for a year and love it. I run stock suspension, but when (if) you start dabbling with suspension...

Goodyear Fortera Triple Tread I bought my 2006 Sport V8 with 38k miles. The previous owner put on 265/65/17 Goodyear Fortera Triple Tread tires. I was VERY skeptical at first since I usually run BF goodrich AT KO tires, but I have been very impressed with these. They are quiet, have great...

Decent Deal That is a pretty good deal based on what I have seen. I lucked out, but then again it is all timing as I always buy my cars around Christmas as the dealerships are dead and in the Northeast all they do is plow around them all winter. I bought a 2006 Sport Edition V8 with 38k...

4Runner of the Month That is easily in the top 3 of best looking 4th gen I have seen on this site. I love the graphite limited wheels and clean look with the BFG's. Nice job. You get my vote for 4ROTM. Where did you get the graphite powdercoating done and how much to do?

Additional 12V - constant power mod http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?threadid=45651 Here is the one I did. Worked out well and is completely hidden.
