    They look really good.

    Wish Falkens would to some R&D to keep the weight down. Not sure why they are heavier than Load E tire :(

    Looks good. I wonder if they will fit without much issues on a TRD Pro stock height since it already has about 1" of lift.

    Did you get P rated or LT?

    I think they fit standard 4runners with no lift. I'll be installing a set soon as my ORP arrives.

    And I likely won't have my lift for a couple more months lol. Hopefully they clear.

    Just spent 2 hours driving in torrential downpour. Wipers work perfectly. Now, if only lane paint was actually reflective. No where near as reflective as when I was younger.

    They come with new nuts that have to be used. The OEM top hat nuts are not threaded all the way through. Every front top hat kit comes with them as a standard.

    The supplied lock nuts are more than sufficient.

    Well I almost drove home in a CPO '19 Limited Nightshade today. Unfortunately, one of the sales managers sold it to an out of state phone buyer while I was on the test drive. So that's cool. There's one other '19 Limited Nightshade 4x4 where I am that I looked at Wednesday but that one had a deposit put on it today. If they back out tomorrow, I'm just going to pull the trigger on that one.

    They should fit fine since mine is a stock suspension currently. These are C load. You can definitely tell there is some extra weight, but my HikeIt throttle controller that will be here tomorrow will fix that. Another thing I noticed is they are smoother than the Nitto's. Less bouncy. They are firmer over expansion joints.

    I've never used them, but hundreds have with not many issues as far as I could tell in my research. I figured its a cheap option to get 1" or I could pay $1500+ for a new suspension for 2". I didn't want 285's nor a brand complete suspension. It was worth the $49 to see what it looks like.

    Roof rack looks awesome you'll have to let us know how it is to pack it and do they have any kind of fairing option

    I can share, but my disclaimer is, it only works if you’re running spacers. It actually clips into the spacer and not the rim itself.

    Finally got around to installing my SSO slimline bumper with Warn winch and Baja 30” amber light bar. Much easier than what I was expecting.

    Washed it, but not as usual. Put together a foam cannon setup with a cheap electric pressure washer (our of respect for my neighbors) and cut my washing time in half easily. With three cars to care for and cold weather approaching, hand washing efficiency is foremost on my mind.

    This is my wife’s truck. Everything done to it so far is because she picked it out and wanted it done. I’m the free labor… or paid in other ways!

    Who cares? This never shows everything anyway.
    I gave my 4Runner a proper Mini-Me.

    Thanks! Artec doesn’t offer a fairing. But it’s very low profile, I can’t detect any wind noise....and I’ve tried. If it helps, here’s a pic of the front. DE30DF54-EB1A-45E2-9FEB-A77F492CC7CB.jpg

    Got my HikeIt throttle controller. Forgot how much it really wakes up the 4R. And for $118 on sale it’s a no brainer over the others. I think this is where I will put it.

    so this is like a Pedal Commander yes?

    It connects to the accelerator pedal circuit yes?

    In ECON mode does it make the 4R even more of a dog?

    Does it actually help with any fuel econ??

    I grew up in the town of Pottsville home of the Yuengling Brewery. I know the owner and friends with them. They have been around a long time. You ever get to that area you need to take a tour of the place. Awesome.
