I pulled the trigger and installed Continental Contact LX in 275/55/20 size. I would have MUCH preferred the UHP, however, they call for a 7.5 inch rim versus these which the mfr says are happy on a 7 inch rim. Have only logged a few miles so far and will advise further and post better pics later.

Same Problem in CT I have the Yokos on my Limited and you can hardly stay in a lane driving on HWY 95. I am about to change the tires to Continental 275/55/20s so I will report back.

NP here I have the Viper Remote Start with the iPhone AP and my Bluetooth still works fine....

How does one go about getting these? I am referring to the stock running boards that come standard on the Canadian Limited 4Runner. I spoke to one dealer in Montreal---the parts guys---he was totally confused and could not locate them in the parts catalog.

And the hits just keep on coming The heat fix did not work. The Dealer admitted something is wrong---they tested another 2010 4Runner they had and it too, had the same problem with cold air pouring in. They called Toyota in California who suggested they insulate a few areas which they did (no...

Perhaps Just for the record, I hate losing money, but I also hate being miserable and I have a very short commute. It wasn't an impulse buy. I was the first person to order one more than 7 months ago. It was a refundable deposit. I guess when all the early reviews came out so positive, I dove...

Back from dealer They unearthed two problems: 1) the factory default was set to bleed outside air through the floor vents---they have reset it to no longer bleed so I will have to wait till it is colder to see if it really makes a difference, and 2) 3 out of 4 tires were way out of balance...

At the dealer It is at the Dealer---lets see if they can find what is wrong with it. As far as why did I go ahead and buy, my test drive was at night with nobody on the road and we only went around the block---my fault---should have done it in the day in all types of driving conditions as I...

After owning and still enjoying tremendously an 06 which my daughter still has and luvs, I cannot like my new 2010 Limited although I want to. Impressions---feels and looks 2X as big and is therefore cumbersome to drive. I thought my wifes Range Rover Sport felt wide, this thing makes that feel...

Molding is a Toyota dealer installed option. I also "splurged" for the Crystal Window treatment which makes a notable difference. I paid list price and it has the tan interior. My initial impressions after only 35 miles is that it feels like 1.5X the size of our 2006 4Runner---both taller and...

Can't tell yet if I LUV it or HATE it Here are a few pics of my 26 mile old Blizzard Pearl---thoughts/opinions?

Go Mine (finally) I picked up my Blizzard Pearl LTD today---it had been three weeks since it hit the port and three days at the dealer waiting for paperwork. Will post pics tomorrow---I luv it and the wife hates it. She says it feels bigger than her RR Sport---perhaps a tad taller. It...
