Red....my build/update/maintain thread

[ladywolf]

As you guys all know I picked up Red from DoorDing last week up in NJ. When Red came home he was lacking his signature emblem in the front.

Since I'm waiting on my set of devil horns from Diaz Fab that won't be here until November, I decided to go ahead and peruse Ebay for an OEM emblem to adorn him until such time that his custom-made jewelry arrives.

Red says he's much happier now. I am too. Red felt a little naked without an emblem on the front this last week.

Next up....oil change tomorrow morning before class along with a tire rotation.

Gotta love messing up stock bumpers, it's the perfect excuse! Can't believe insurance gave you that much for that situation, score! haha

I really do kinda luck out on this.....i'm waiting for something else to take a crap. My truck is half broke with a wheel bearing going out. Of course its a 1st Gen Tundra, and you cant get pre-assembled assemblies for it. So it has to go to a shop to get fixed.

New tires and wheels. pics to come!!

Red finally got the TRD wheels that I bought over a year ago to put on my 3rd gen but had just never gotten around to it. Tires on the stock wheels were starting to get pretty worn, so it was the perfect opportunity to make the upgrade!!

Tires are Falken AT3. They are pretty nice and wear well on my tundra, so I figure they should do pretty well on the 4runner as well.

What size are hose tires ?

What size are hose tires ?

265 70 R17. Just a little wider than the stock size. Everything fits perfect. No trimming, rubbing, or adjusting needed.

Taller than stock right? Stock is 265/65/17 I think.

Those TRD rims are perfect for your 4Runner...the design, the color, the offset are all perfect. And nice choice on the tires.
