I just put 255/80R17's(33x10.50) on my stock SR5. I am getting slight rubbing at full lock under flex. I wonder if it would better with TRD Pro Suspension that sits an 1" higher.
Ended up scoring a free pair of Wheel Spacers. I just need to pick up a second pair and I will be set.

So far they have been great. The "pizza cutters" are nice on the highway, doesn't seem like the 4Runner is struggling. I was hoping we would have gotten some snow on the group so I could test them, but we got just a light dusting. My slow and steady build. Need to start saving for the next step.
255/80 Falken WildPeak AT3W's have been installed. Here are some comparison pictures vs stock size. I am running stock suspension and I do rub a little at full lock and going over bumps.

I got rid of the chrome and used Rust-oleum Peel in Graphite on them. Next up will be the Roof Rails.

If go stock size I will get the SL ones which I don't think are too heavy. I have heard good things about them in snow/ice which is important to since I live in CO and travel in the mountains. They are also 3 Peak and M+S rated so I don't have to run chains when the chain laws are in effect...
Thanks! Next set is tires. I have decided on Falken Wildpeak AT3W's, just trying to decide on stock size or 255/80's. Hoping I can hold out till Black Friday and get a deal on 255's. I am also debating doing bronze plasti-dip on the SR5 rims while I wait for my buddy to sell me his bronze Trail...
The last parts to finish up Phase 1 of the build. I decided to try Rust-oleum Peel Coat in Graphite instead of Plasti-dip. I guess we will see how it compares. LED Headlights and LED DRL/Highs as well.

First Blackstone Oil Analysis has been done. The oil used was Amsoil O.E. OW-20 @ 10,995 miles. I did an Amsoil Engine Flush right before this oil change. Here are the results:

That is a nice truck! I was looking at doing the Power Wagon swap. I am sure the 4.56 gears are good little boost to the truck. Unfortunately I lost the truck in the divorce so I am going start modding my 4Runner instead.
I really just made my own template. I am not super savvy on Google Sheets/Excel but I had to use it for a pervious job. You can look up how to do formulas for adding up prices online. It's not too hard, basically just use =sum(c3+c4). That will add cells C3 and C4 together. For the links I...
