New 2016 4Runner TEP owner

[mas280]

I have been without a 4Runner for 3 years now. Took me 2 weeks to track down a 4Runner trail premium for the right price. Paid $38,600. Now time to mod. 1st up tires and sliders.

Welcome to the forum and welcome back to 4Runners!

Nice looking ride! what's your plan for tire and slider upgrades? By the way, welcome aboard!

 

[mas280]

Need to look into sliders. Not sure who makes the best.

I want to get AT tires one size larger than stock. Stock tires look out of place. No lift at this time.

Just found out that you have to hold the key to start. My other Toyota truck you just turn one time and let go and it starts.

Welcome!!

that is a beast! enjoy it!

Nice! That's exactly what I'm looking for.

When I get mine I plan to start the upgrades by applying additional underbody coating (POR-15?) and heavy skid plate/armor.

Took it offroad last week with only 150 miles on her. I found out real fast how bad the stock tires suck. They really hold the 4runner back. My new TRD wheels and tires will be on next week.

What tire did you decide to go with?

 

[mas280]

BFG 275/70/17 KO 2 with TRD black wheels. Should be in next week.

That TE in that color looks lovely... I know you're changing the wheels out anyway, but I love the look of them.

So I am newbie 2016 Limited owner. Can I put off road tires on the limited?

 

[mas280]

I love the new wheel and tire combo. I do get a little rub on the front. I will need to move the plastic forward for more room. Stock lift with 275/70/17 BFG K02.

I am sure you can as others have.

 

[RockyRider]

It looks tough! Could you tell me what dealer you purchased yours from?

 

[mas280]

Freeman Toyota.
