Cali4Runnea's (Mama's truck) Build

[Cali4Runnea]

tires for 17" will be cheaper too.

Ya, I noticed that, same with the rims! I really don't need "huge" tires, but I do want bigger ones and the lift for sure. I don't really plan to do any real off roading in the future, since I have a 2wd and will be living back in FL soon, lol. But, I would like to be able to drive through a flood comfortably!

That is awesome! You get to knock out a couple of big steps all at once. Have you decided if you are going with machine finish or black Methods?

Here is a cool calculator for tires. It really helped me being able to do side by side comparisons.

Machine finish for sure!! I love your's and vtechmonster's wheels, that's my inspiration. I really like vtechmonster's tires, but I want get ones that fit my runner without having to cut anything.

Thank you for the calculater, I'm going to check it out!

Xmas present

Okay, now I know for sure what I'm asking (getting) for xmas this year, thanks to one of Mytoy4's posts, a rear spoiler! It's something I had looked at last year, but kind of just forgot about. Didn't realize how cheap they were either, I'm looking forward to the new look on my runner.

This is the one I'm asking for-
eSpoiler - Painted Factory Spoiler

I used to like the one that looks more OEM with the light facing you, but now I think having it face down looks better, imo.

-And if my MIL asks what I want this year, it will be the magnaflow tip! =D

Are u getting the hump or no hump? I think 03 to 05 was no hump and 06 to 09 had hump.

Getting one with no hump, but I also have never seen an aftermarket one with a hump, from what I've read they're pretty hard to come by.

Momo mail!

Got my sticker's in the mail from Momo today, super excited! Didn't have a chance to get them on tonight, as it was too dark, but it's my first priority tomorrow! Will update with Runner pics...

 

[Dawg4Runner]

I for sure want some Methods! But I have no clue on how to figure out which size I need to fit those tires, can anyone help?

If you're looking at Method Race Wheels, the Part # you want is: MRW-MR30178560300

That's for "The Standard", 17x8.5, 0mm Offset, 6x5.5 Bolt Pattern, Diamond Cut/Clear Coat Finish.

You'll also need to get extended thread conical lug nuts.

Edit: Sorry, didn't notice that Mikey already gave you the correct PN for the wheels.

That's okay, thank you for the info! Having someone else 2nd it also is reasurring, because I have no clue on how to figure out the right size to go with the tires I'll be getting, lol.

 

[Cali4Runnea]

They're on! They are exactly what I was looking for.

Thank you again Momo, you rock!

They looks good!......:trophy:

 

[Mytoy4]

Nice! I thought at first they were red (the pic before they were on). Love the pink
I notice your doggie sticker too, what kind of dog do you have?

 

[Cali4Runnea]

Thanks guys!

Terri - I have a Jack Russell Chihuahua (Jack Chi) and my hubs dog is a golden labrador mix. Both incredibly sweet dogs, we love them to pieces, they were our first ''kids''. Do you have great danes?

I have one Great Dane. He's a good boy, but I really miss my Dobermans...that's where my true love lies
You should post some pics of your pups, I'd love to see them!

Aww, I bet your Dane is a big sweet baby! Dobermans are sweet too, I've never had one, but my Dad did when he was in the Navy before I was born, said it was the smartiest dog he ever had.

I always mean to post a pic of them in the dog photo gallery, but I'll post one here I took recently. =)

Oh my gosh, they're so cute!!! The under bite on Pepper is to die for. I love dogs with under bites! Thanks for sharing

Hehe, thanks girl. Lol, yes, he has a terrible under bite! Guess that's one of the things I found cute about him when I adopted him. =)
