The Rig Got her some new shoes 20" on Mud Grapplers and almost blacked out...
 
Yeah I got a great deal on these wheels and tires...
Thanx to Twenty2 for the inspiration...

p.s. The Nitto Mud Grapplers are not that loud... I was scared from all the reviews about it being really loud but me and my wife actually like how the Rig sound with them... @ $300 a piece, I think I'm going to get another set after I burn thru these...

Heres hows a couple of pics before...

its 3m flat black wheel paint ( your basic rattle can paint job) ... I did the center caps the same way and they actually match the flat black paint of the rims...

I did one coat and then let them sit for 15mins in the sun and then hair dryer them and then added another coat ... did the same thing over until I had 3 coats on them...

I painted my tundra oem wheels the same way and they never chipped once I was done and they can be washed with out ever worrying about them wearing the paint...

Thanx guys...

I finally got rid of the nerf bars. Traded them for a black brush guard. Next of set of mods that should be on by next month is Limited edition steps, russell's brake lines, fabtech tie rods, and boulder accessories roof rack. I'm also in the market for KC slimlites fogs and pencile lights...

put in 1200 miles, still liveable... I drove it from Long Beach to Oxnard to Corona and it was very liveable... Not as loud as people suggested

Update ...

I got the limited Side Steps on and Installed the Boulder Accessories ( AmStar) Roof Rack.





And I got to see some snow action, when I took my family up to Big Bear over the weekend... Nearly a foot of snow monday morning on our way home...

it was alittle hard ... I had to losen all the bolts on the rock rails and then slip the limited steps in and then re-tighten everything... I kinda like them with out the cutouts... Looks better since my molding isnt painted..

I didnt realize that would fit with out the cut outs, Looks great. Is there enough foot room on the step with out the cut-out?
