I'm in NE and it won't Stop Raining, I needed to take basement flood/water pics so I finally took some Pics of my new 4R. I know we all like pics or I do at least so I thought to share:

Very nice. Where did you pick up the 18s from? I have an 07 SR5 that came with 16s and they're just a bit small for my taste. I figure if I am gonna drop the cash to make them bigger, go to an 18 instead of a 17. I love the look of them, and I was planning on the Revos, so I am definitely saving this post as a template!
Have you done any lift mods or is it stock? No rubbing? That's my biggest concern is having to modify the fender/flares to account for rubbing. Dremels just flat out make me nervous.
Love the ride!

You should not get any rubbing with the stock size 18" tire and rim combo. Even if you upsize 1 size. It should fit with out any trimming. I upsized to a 265/70 17 on a stock 2WD and had no rubbing.
I have done the trimming per "JA's" detailed instructions from his web site. (I lifted my 08 and added Spidertrax) You would never know by looking at it. (See Link below) It really is not that bad if you take your time and are careful. I broke a couple cutting wheels by trying to go to quickly. No harm done. It kind of melts it as it cuts. Then use one of the sanding attachments to clean it up. Tape the area off your going to cut to give you a guide. Put the tape on the side you want to stay.

Yeah, I am thinking about going with the Daystar lift, spidertrax 1.25" spacers, and upgrading to either 17" or 18" wheels with the Revos on them. I think I am just asking for some rubbing if I do that, and I've never used a dremel before except modifying the metal portion of a computer case one time. Makes me nervous, for sure.
Probably worth it though, in my estimation.

I went with the OEM size for what the LTD 18's call for and great fit with no rubbing or any issues or anything. They fit perfect I just had to swap over the TPM's from my 17"s and I just swapped them out. The Revo's are great. They are such an upgrade over the OEM Dunlops. I picked up the LTD 18's on Ebay a ways back and I actually had these wheels on my 06 SR5, same year, same color. I had a chance to trade in my SR5 and move up to this Sport that has a Sunroof, a few less miles, nicer condition and a few more extra's and I jumped at it and I couldn't be any happier. When I swapped these LTD wheels onto the Sport I was real happy because it offers a little different look. I was also thinking of one of those lifts but these wheels seem to fit pretty well with the OEM set up.
You're clearly a guy who loves his 4Runner since you have time to take pictures of it while your basement is wet.

Pump was running and camera was in hand, couldn't resist. Plus kind of bum'd just traded my old SR5 (great truck) that I had over a year and half for my new Sport and I realized I have no pics of it? Oh well now I got pics of my new Sport so I'm good to go. :surfer:

Really, thats a great idea! Thanks I would have thought a painted grill would be much more money. I am going to check that ASAP!

That's one nice T4R you got there. Nice choice on the tires they look good esp. with the white wall out. So you went with the stock tire size right? Which is the 265/60R18.
