What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Looks great! I've been thinking about doing the same. How big a deal was it to get them off the body? Heat with a hair dryer to loosen the adhesive?
 
Last night I cleaned Megaweapon inside and out, including the engine compartment. Also applied RainX to the windows. On the interior, I first go over everything with a Swiffer, which picks up dust like a magnet and is great for getting into all the nooks and crannies. Then I follow up with the Mequire's interior detailing wipes.

In a few more days I'll be leaving for my annual Nevada/Mojave trip, camping and exploring old mines and ghost towns. Of course the 4Runner will get filthy and have to be cleaned again when I get back, but I like starting out with it clean.
 
This is what I did today. Last pic should give a clue to how it ended. lol

Where are you located? I just pulled my stock spare off the rim. never saw pavement.

Salt lake. It was probably my fault. It wasn't a crazy trail but I didn't air down at all there we a lot of loose rock that were fairly decent size and I was probably going to quick plus I learned the stock tires suck but I knew that already.

Yeah sharp rocks will puncture stock tires like a warm knife through butter. Time for a nice set of ATs
 
Part of me wants to but other part of me is trying to hold out till I get some wear at least on the stock tires. Feels like if I don't I would be just throwing the stock ones away which is probably what I should do lol. Only have about 5k on them.

To be honest I just kept getting my tired patched professionally until about 25k mi. There's a bunch of dudes looking for stock tires... you could always keep them and build a sweet trailer.

I pulled my stock wheels and tires off at 325 miles, I liked the wheels but hated the tires. Got $600 for the package without the TPMS sensors since they were moved to my new wheels. Stock wheels and tires do sell, it didn't take me long to sell them. Tires alone should bring you $300 or so.
