Hey Tyler,
Long time since I been on here and it is good that you traded your suby for something more reliable, but to me it does not make sense to get staggered wheels when it is front wheel drive car.

The rear arch on most modern cars is wider than the fronts, therefor wider wheels are need for the back if you want good fitment.

Browser I am using is Firefox. Occasionally, the box on the right for the similes does not show (like as I typed this for example) whenever I post.

That's one mean looking Tacoma!! Looks great!!!

IMO, you need to do something about that grille though. Might as well buy a honeycomb looking one and black it out too. But other than that, it's looking awesome!!!!

So how long does it take you to adjust when jumping out of the RSX and into the Taco? My big ass Chevy K10 feels like the USS Eisenhower for about three miles after driving the Fit.

And nothing puts "tire noise" into perspective like Swampers! LOL
