Hi all - went to the Toy shop yesterday to get a silver TRD ORP and wound up with a Super White one! Lurking on here for about 1 week after seeing these at the Atlanta Auto Show last weekend and now I'm the proud owner of one. Traded a 16 F-150 Platinum so the loss of technology hurts, but I'm a modder so I'm stoked at the options for the 4R!
I may have gotten a little antsy yesterday, but I had them include in the deal the TRD lift kit and the TRD SEMA wheels in gunmetal with 275 Nitto Terra Grapplers (I've bought 5 sets of these in the last 10 years and swear by them!). They sent my rig to their inland port in Commerce GA this morning so I'm driving a loaner until they're done and I want to start ordering parts!
Probably paid more than I should have but what's done is done and I kept all my cash for all of the other cool stuff! One big question is this - I think I will want wheel spacers on this set up and from what I've researched, everyone seems well-pleased with Spidertrax. My only concern is that they only have 1 size of spacer which is 1-1/2". From what I read about the SEMA wheel, these have roughly 1/2" of additional/reduced offset relative to the stock TRD wheel so I'm wondering if the 1-1/2" from the spacers will push the tires TOO far outboard. Anyone have this set up and can show me? If the track looks too wide, who else makes a hub/wheel centric spacer that might only be 1/2"-1" thick?
Looking forward to playing with this new toy and I will definitely be heading to North GA as soon as I can! Thanks for all of the great information and I hope I can add value here as my journey begins with this new toy!
