How do you like those 33x10.50's? Ever wish you had 12.50's?

 

They looked hella skinny. I just assumed it was the stock wheels. How much lift? Go 33!

 

No body lift on my '99, so everyone says that 12.50's are out of the question unless I get a bodylift. I would rather have the 12.50's but it would be easier to fit the 10.50's. Maybe I should just get out the sawzall and go 12.50!

 

on the upside those 10.5s should get a bit better fuel economy since they're not so wide. i like skinny tires!

i've also always had a thing for those nice aluminum sr5 rims...that's a nice runner!

 

I would roll that 4runner in a heartbeat with that wheel tire combo. But that's just me. And yes its a very nice/tight 4runner.

 

no offense blue but your runner will probably roll just as easy with the height its got.

 

Not as easy, it has 12.5s on 10" wide wheels and stiff shocks. Its pretty stout.

 

Yay!

I lived in Fort Langley for awhile.

 

I really like your whole setup. BTW, How do you like that rack??

 

Well, thanks for the responses. I really like the 10.50 wide tire. They're great on the trail and just fine on the highway. Got to keep in mind that it's a 4x4 though when cornering. It came stock with 31x10.50, so all I did was go with a taller tire. I actually had 33x9.50x15's on this truck before. I would consider those to be too skinny. And with the 10.50's all I had to do is crank the torsion bars a bit and put some coils in the back. It's a very easy and affordable setup in my opinion.
The roof rack makes the truck really suck back the gas on the highway. I love the looks and the utility factor but there's definitly a price to pay for that. It doesn't make any noise though which im happy about.


Mike.

 

Good point about the mileage, although my gas mileage already sucks anyway. How about a straight on shot from the front or back at bumper level from about 20 feet away so I can see how skinny those 10.50's are?

 

Definitely one of the best looking 4runners I've seen.

 

I don't think that the 10.50's are that skinny. It's the same width as stock.

Mike.

 

It definently looks good. Its just in my opinion (an opinion stemming from wider is better) that 10.5's on factory 7 or 8"? alloys is scary when it comes to lifted rigs. I could only imagine the trouble I would get myself into if I were to have that set up. But don't get me wrong, it seriously looks good.

 

That looks good Mike
The paint just gleams - I thought maybe you were going to say Zaino or Griot's.

 

Thanks! That looks good! Not as skinny as I thought.
