Anyone see a trend?.. Lots of ME's here haha.

This is actually pretty funny. I studied ME for 2.5yrs during my college days, but I eventually realized that it wasn't for me. Business management was where I excelled:D. All the physics and calculus made me :bash::nono:.
 
I'll play... I've had a crush on these wheels since they released!

I am a recent University graduate, completing my Degree in Business Management in May, 2012 and have my Diploma in Petroleum Engineering (2006). I am currently transitioning into the "oil field" for work. I also own/run a small headlight modification business called Headlight Hookup. We do complete headlight modifications including projector retrofits, where my truck is now seen as the "poster child." I am also a member of the CT4WD Trail Team (Canada Toyota 4WD Association). We have drivers training courses, organized events, dealership days, organized trail runs for the Association's members, and even trail maintenance days, etc. I consider myself to be very active in the 4WD community, and a passionate, and contributing member on T4R and CT4WD's forum in particular. I love the outdoors and Toyota's, and try to express that with my ardent use of my camera.

My truck is active in many circles and sees a large amount of internet and real life exposure to potential SCS customers. Not only would I take a metric ton of pictures to help market your product, but I would be a great resource to help reach out to Canadian clientele. I would not even apply for this if I felt the product being offered wasn't thoughtfully designed, with an emphasis on quality and functionality. However, it is evident that SCS shares these same ideals that I try to implement with my headlight builds as well as with my 4Runner. I also have a ton of ideas for future concepts that I would love to share. Please consider the Dirt Duster and myself, for the SCS semi-sponsorship. I wish everyone the best of luck!

Interested. I'm a newer member, but that doesn't mean I'm less passionate about helping out the community. My build thread is in my sig - I invite you to check it out. I try and document the little details that often get overlooked or aren't mentioned in other builds, which helps others learn tips to completing their own similar mods. Having good documentation, and participating in the resulting conversation is what makes forums like this valuable.

Thanks for the opportunity. Your 16x8" zero offset 5-spoke wheels are awesome!

Edit to original post:
If you are interested please do the following:

- Post up 1 or 2 pictures here in this thread
- Must have a link to a build thread(any forum)
- List your mods
- A short paragraph about why we should pick your 4Runner(not necessary, but it can help me decide)
- Go back to school/change major and become a Mech-E

I got your back, I'll be a Computer Engineer in 1 year!




Sick wheels though, I'd jump in this if I didn't just buy wheels. Keep posting awesome rides!

A little about my runner ive owned this truck since i was 16 coming up on 8 years ive had it always loved it ill never let it die no matter what it takes i will keep it forever. As you can see from above i have/am putting a lot of hard work and sweat into my truck next year im taking the time to put the work and money into making it strong again to survive so many more years to come and it would look sweet with some brand new wheels on it.

Nice, I like to see this type of promotion! Thanks for being awesome. For every sticker I rep on my truck, I always wish there was some kick-back... heck, I'm even happy when the sticker itself is free! :biggrin2:

I'll throw my rig in the mix because she sees A LOT of Colorado roads (and trails) and considering the amount of enthusiasts here in CO, it'd be a great place to advertise your awesome wheels. They'd be on proud display at any given ski resort every weekend & holiday too.

Oh, also, add one more ME to the list... I guess great minds think alike! That being said, my student loan payments make it dang-near impossible to afford aftermarket wheels, but some SCS wheels would really compliment my truck and the work I've done thus far!

Mods: OME Lift, ODL front bumper, sport hood, Yakima Rack, lights, bushings... rear bumper hopefully coming soon

Looking good guys! This is going to be tough to choose. There's approximately 2wks left before we make a decision so keep them coming. We like to support the members on every forum that we're on b/c you guys are the ones that help keep us going forward.

Btw, we do provide free SCS decals to anyone that's interested. Just send us a PM with you name, mailing address, and color decal of you choice. We send them out in batches every 1-2wks.

I figured I would give it a try! I would love the gun metal wheels and think it with the nautical blue makes an excellent look!

If I dont win this though I think gaterose should. He really has helped myself and so many other members on here. Also his pictures are AMAZING. He is the reason I am wanting a set of gun metal rims. He already sold me on a set.. I bet he could sell yall many sets. Thanks for reading!
 
This is my 1992 Search and Rescue 4runner. I do not have a build thread but many of my mods are listed in my signature. I bought it bone stock and transformed it into what it is today. It is still a work in progress, due to me still being in college though.
I think I would be a great candidate for a semi-sponsorship because I go on many searches, some being high profile. With that being said I often times get my truck shot on news channels and other media. I also daily drive my 4runner, so it is seen in the eyes of the public everyday.
