Limited Edition Mod Thread

Has anyone experienced any performance issues after installing the 17" wheels on the Limited? Shifting seem a little jerky compared to the stock 20s.

I just installed P265/70r17 General Grabber ATX on TRD Pro wheels.
The truck definitely feels like it went from wearing running sneakers to wearing hiking boots. Not quite full on work boots, but big cushy hiking boots for sure.
Probably not the smartest move for someone that drives 80 highway miles per day. The ride just feels sluggish overall. I'm sure I will get used to the ride and the hit to the gas mileage. They sure do look sickkkk though /sarcasm.
Time will tell, but the smarter move would probably have been going 275/55r20 on the stock wheels route for me. Part of the plan was to keep winter/summer tires, or commute wheels/off-road wheels so maybe I will do both.
 
Yes!!! I haven't seen anyone post pics of just cornfed 1/2" spacers so I just went and tried it. I love how the look came out.

So just to clarify, did you get 1/2" thick spacers that provide 1" of front lift, or is there actually a 1/8" cornfed front spacer that provides 1/2" lift that you've used here?

I'm running the 1" cornfed front spacer on ours, the actual spacer is 1/2" thick. Looks much better, feels more like a truck with the chin up a bit.

Do you have pictures? I have the same 4Runner as you and I'm considering these wheels as well. My plan was to go with the Nitto tires that come on the Pro to keep the overall weight down. I would like a little softer ride myself.

Nothing worth posting yet. I still have running boards on it and it looks a little weird. I will take some glamour shots when I get a chance and after I ditch the boards.
I also have what seems to be a 2" rake from the back to the front. I need to get the truck onto a dead flat area to take good measurements and and order a leveling kit or mild spacer lift. I only have about 30K on my XREAS suspension so I don't plan on replacing it any time soon.

Understood. I never put running boards on mine. I just did the splash guards and called it a day.

Mine has 8k miles and I definitely have a decent rake. It would probably be more noticeable with the offset provided by the TRD wheels. I've considered ditching the XREAS, but I spend most of my time on the road and don't see a good reason to invest the money right now.

Here it is now with the stock XREAS, mudguards and running boards. Definitely looks low so I bought the Daystar 2.5" spacer lift for the hell of it.
I can post more when that is done.

I do get some rubbing at full right hand steering lock in reverse. Should be a simple fender liner adjustment but its not too annoying right now.

Thank you. I think it looks good. I bet removing the running boards would help add back some visual height.

Decided to give Elka and Falken Wildpeak AT3 a try and I am waiting for FN six shooters wheels to arrive so I can install them all at once.

Simple mods to my Gen 5.1 and 5.2

View attachment 327925

Gen 5.1; wheels, tires, Plastidip, tinted front windows, pinstripes & removed running boards.

Gen 5.2; tires, leveling lift in front, tinted front windows (not in this pic) and Magnuson supercharger ( all dealer installed 'cept the window tint).

May I know what front leveling kit did the dealer install? and which dealership did you get your nightshade? Thanks
 
Antman Limited Rocker mod

Completed the Limited rocker panel mod. Used a dremel to cut the panel and used a car door edge guard trim to clean up the look. I initially wanted to buy the trail edition rockers but they were too costly for me. Shrockworks TE trim was an option but I ultimately decided against it.

Preparing to install some RSG sliders. Anyone have any tips regarding the X-REAS lines for the slider install? Is is pretty simple to unbolt, move out of the way, and install on top of the slider plates?

Looks super clean. Nice work!

It depends on the mounting points of the RSG sliders. I had no problems installing my OPOR sliders and keeping the XREAS lines intact. Yes, just unbolt and move out of the way and install on top of slider plates. It's been a while, but I think I had to move a brake line out of the way too.
 
looks great :) any pictures of the full side of the truck?
