'16 SR5 - Give me your opinion!

[schooley]

Hey everyone, got my 15 posts and I am anxious to hear your thoughts on the ideas I have for my wife's grocery getter.

Brand spanking new SR5 premium 2WD in white. My wife's previous car was also white and she really liked the black accents to contrast with the paint color. I have only been around the site for a short amount of time so I am sure I will find more ideas but here is where I am thinking about starting:

Black badges (already taken care of)
Swap the chrome running boards for a black tubular style
Considering a small lift with wheel spacers for a better stance
Dip the wheels for now (black) when it comes time for new rubber I will powdercoat them.

I have already gotten limo equivalent tint on the rear doors & glass.

Anything you guys would do differently? If not, any recommendations on the lift & spacer parts?

Thanks!

Black brush guard or something like that to match nerf bars.

Welcome

Roof rack, light bar, sliders for sure! throw on a 3in toytec boss lift and run 285/70/17s!! just the lift and tires will change the look of the car drastically!! You've got yourself a greart car with so much potential!! even with 2wd the lsd if used correctly is pretty capable! goodluck and definitely keep us updated

I will look into the toytech boss lift kit, I am waiting until the oem tires are ready to be replaced before upgrading those.

Thanks for the suggestions! Do you think a lift & wheel spacers will give a good stance with the oem shoes?

Progress!!

Truck looks much better without the running boards and with the black wheels. Nice job. :thumb3:

might need to check the wheel offset when you lift it cause the stock rims may cause the tires to rub. and wheel spacers will give it a better stance but not sure how itll be with stock rims.. rims and tires were the first to go when i got mine

I do like the black tires, not sure how I feel about the running boards off... I honestly see the appeal of both ways I suppose. It sure looks clean though, I love it in white.

I like it with running boards off.
