I like pick up trucks. I'd actually love to have my 1995 4Runner back (not a pickup, but it was based off the pickup version before it) I love having something taller and it was a beast in the snow. Bringing it back to be my sled hauler this year!
Then you and asyed can battle it out for 4x4 statusQuote:

Went out for some more shots this weekend. Reaaaaally wish I had a car to stare at through the camera that didn't make me sad/bitter :P but alas, I'm stuck with my bucket, so here's some heavily edited pictures :P
Out for a dip.. (HA...get it?)

Technically off-roading here..

It's certain shots like these which make me slightly forget my hate for the whole dip situation for a brief moment. The way the sun was shining on it..just had to snap a pic

It's not strong. It's sad and depressing. But probably the factor of you not having back problems driving around their lol.Quote:

Wanted to drop down to 17's with beefy tires for this summer. Had these wheels since winter, all ready for me, and finally got around to purchasing tires a few weeks back, after months of flip-flopping between tire sizes. Once I had the tires on the rims, I was really liking how it was looking. Couldn't wait to get some proper drive-ability out of my car again. Finally got them on this past weekend, and boy was I wrong...
Won't get into the details, but essentially...beefy setup is beefy. Didn't wanna go too soft on the fitment side of things, but turns out I slightly over-estimated what I deemed as an "aggressively safe" setup for the car. Ran into a lot of issues trying to get this setup working properly. However it's now somewhat working itself out, and I'm hoping some fine tweaks in the coming days will render it fully drive-able. Basically my main issue right now is shredding a bit too much tire in the rear :P
Anyway, onto some pics. Just dirty-car/quick-shot pics I took yesterday. Hopefully can clean the car/wheels up and go out for a shoot this weekend.
This pain in the ass spent all of Saturday in that shop..

You'd think that wheel gap would be enough...but nope..

Saturated for some added orange..

Wheels:
17x8.5 +40 RPF1's
Powdercoated Candy Teal
Tires:
235/45/17 Hankook Ventus V12's
Rear quarter is angry. Angry rear quarter. And full of rust. But the wheels look wicked on it and of course teal hahaha.
It looks so hiiigh now
I have a problem with black wheels. And with my messed up car color, there's not much else I could do. I do really like teal [emoji14]Quote:

Wanted to be a little more subdued this summer. But once I put them next to the car, I decided I liked it [emoji14]
It feels high too. Jeez such a difference getting in and out of it. And even sitting/driving in it, it's noticeably higher than even my winter mode. I'm getting used to it though.Quote:

why do you have to do that to frey? now asyed is going to bug the shit out of himQuote:

But yea as I told ya I always found the 225 45s to be a perfect balance. Not skinny to the point where its unbearable but not too thick that you rub worse then when @asyed sees bird shit on his car. But seeing it I like the new look. They work well with the car. Nowhere near as aggressive as last year but would you really wanna rock last years setup on some of the worst roads in North America. Nope. Not a chance lol.Quote:
