Thanks for the reminder. Currently running with no spareNot 4runner related but it is Toyota so going to share anyways:
Took the road trip wagon / sienna / man van / swaggin wagon on yet another road trip, this time to Ohio from NC for the Arnold Classic. 251,000 on the odometer.
Car was loaded down with 5 250lb powerlifters and I guess I had my tires under-inflated for that load, so we got a flat tire on the way back last night right after we left. Since no tire shops were open then in the middle of nowhere, we made the entire trip back from Ohio, 400+ miles, on the toy spare. This is the second time I have done this, last time was ~200 miles from the mountains with my YZ250 hanging on the trailer hitch. I realize it's not recommended but there weren't exactly any other options considering the timing and location. Makes me really appreciate my full sized spare on my 4runner!
Now it's time to drive to Florida!

where did you order them? I need a set for mine too


Out exploring Washington state this week. On the Olympic Peninsula at the moment (Port Angeles)
and will be visiting La Push and Kalaloch later this week. Seeing tons of modified 4th gens
and wishing I had mine instead of this stupid rental Sentra so that I could actually go up in the mountains.... :'(

What did it cost?
Exactly. I suppose I should've clarified that. :'( I did think about my 4 Runner today.So since this is the "What did you do with your 4 Runner today?" topic,
you're saying what you did today was leave your 4 Runner at home and hurt it's feelings
since you know what it's favortie thing to do is go 4 wheeling up in the mountains!! :nono:
Got out and enjoyed the weekend, then gave them both a bath today.

I ended up replacing the Philips LEDs with Yorkim LEDs (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H1QEY66/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1).
The Yorkim's are rated at 6500K and Philips at 6000K, but a side by side comparison showed the Yorkim's were actually warmer (less blue), which was what I wanted.

All switched over. Yorkim's were cheaper so I bought a 2nd set and did the door courtesy lights too.

After the hood latch fiasco, I've finally got her back. Took off the running boards today and gave her a nice little bath. I'm thinking about Plasti-dippin the silver parts underneath the grill and on the rear middle. Thoughts?
