Loving the Bronze look. I have similar style Fuel Vector wheels in black also with Ridge Grapplers and a mild 2" Bilstein coilover suspension. I tested the decibels and the Nittos are exactly as quiet as factory tires which is mind boggling considering the tread. I've got 30k miles on em and they've been absolutely terrific. Enjoy!
@@TRDJon I was surprised to see you went with the SPC’s. Seems like a lot of people are going with the new OME UCA’s with the BP-51’s. I have SPC’s on my 4Runner and the added adjustability helped dial in my caster and get it to stop rubbing on the rear mud flap all while being to oem spec on the alignment!
I have nothing negative to say about my Ridge Grapplers. Quiet on the road, decent in the rain(I have not tried these on snow), I am able to only air down to 20 psi due to the weight of my 4Runner(with no problems) and I have not had a problem with any pull from bad tread. I will probably get another set when it is needed.
Nice truck bro ! Love the bronze contrast against that blue ! It makes it just pop ! Digging the long bed too , I think it looks so much better ( proportionate) than the short beds . Great choice of tires . Dam good looking truck ! I think those wheels would great on the Army green as well , getting some ideas here .
I know it's not a flashy mod, but the regear is worth the $$. Put (Yukon)4.88s on my 4rnr w/ 285/75R17s and it actually is pretty spunky. East Coast Gear Supply was great for me. Truck is looking good
Love the Taco, you are being smart and doing the body mount chop. I got the 285/70/17 and I am rubbing. I just can't find anyone here in town that can do the chop. Anyways love the Videos Jon keep it up and Merry Christmas bud.
The Voodoo Blue Tacoma looks great. Those Ridge Grapplers are quiter I bet than the Trail Grapplers? I'm actually thinking of switching over to Yokohama Geolandars next.
@@TRDJon I’m in Denver. Waiting on a ‘22 ORP DC I have in order and planning to run the same setup. Thinking or wondering with the altitude if the regear will be needed.
Nice truck man, but I’m pretty sure those tires absolutely kill what little torque the tacoma comes with.. I think you’re going to have to re-gear either way, but you might as well get the build done first so you know exactly what you’ll need.
I was about to purchase vtx wheels but i saw on tacoma forum theres a 30 page hate comments on how vtx copied stealth custom series wheels. When i compare them, they might be right. What are your thoughts?
I am new to the channel but I have a 2021 TRD Sport. Just been reading a lot on some of the suspension offered, but kind of sketched on how some people say the fit does not align? Can you speak on that for the lift you have?
What lift kit is on it I just bought 285/70/17s and I'm putting a 3 inch lift in the front and 2 in the back but I'm worried the tire will rub on the front upper control arm
Chopping & fabricating things on that truck is a no no.. if you would had gone with 3" bodylift & 3" suspension lift with this combination would had gotten nice 6" lift having 33" tires without the rubbing, butchering factory cab mounts & others who chop the main sub frame support is only weakening the framing integrity that comes with host of problems by chopping things..
No one dose body lifts anymore. There's a ugly frame to body gap and readjusting wires and harness is a hassle on new trucks. No benefits of more articulation. I rather put Sturt spacers then a body lift. Most shops here in Texas won't do body lifts there's way better opinions vs a body lift of any kind. There's plenty of videos out here saying body lift are a no no
@@tenskeeze The gap your refering to is not at all an issue being they can be easly hidden with customizing cutting big truck plastic mud guards to fit & fastend into place where no one can even tell, you can even order ones to fit the gaps but I personally like using mud guard plastic material its more stiffer then ones they sell online that are like thin plastic sheeting, gaps are least of worries when I do them they look professional as like factory, the only con about bodylifts is very time consuming you can least expect two days for complete insallation but afterwards when installed will stand out & look way better then just a suspension lift by far, which will accomidate the bigger tires that will not rub based on a 3" bodylift.
LAST FEW DAYS!!!!!!!

Heck yes!!!! That is great to hear. Yea idk how they can keep them so quiet
Those wheels, look awesome. You’re right about the bronze popping out.
Thank you!! I’m glad you like them as much as I do!
Video starts at 2:30
It actually starts at 0:00
I think you nailed it with the bronze on that blue, and the offset looks perfect! Nice job 👍🏻
Thank you Tim! Pretty happy with it.

For sure!!! How many miles?
@@TRDJon 10k
Truck looks good Jon , can’t wait to see this build !!
Thank you so much!!
The Truck is looking awesome Jon, congrats
Thanks!! Still alot to do
You said it... Nice freakin’ wheel choice. Smart. Right idea not to run all black. The bronzies are beauts!
Thanks Bruce!!!
I love the bronze on blue, goes well together. makes it look like a Subaru tacoma sti
Thanks! I think it’s killer
Wow. That's a gorgeous build. Great work.
What lift set up do you have?
OME BP-51 kit. I have awhole install video on my channel for ya if you wanna check it out
very sweet looking, i have always been a fan of bronze wheels, like the setup!
Right on! Thanks!
I was going 3/2 toytec boss with uca with 285s. I want no rubbing with not cutting etc.
Nice truck bro ! Love the bronze contrast against that blue ! It makes it just pop ! Digging the long bed too , I think it looks so much better ( proportionate) than the short beds . Great choice of tires . Dam good looking truck !
I think those wheels would great on the Army green as well , getting some ideas here .
Did the gas door open when you landed?
Haha yes. Cheap freaking truck.
@@TRDJon ha. The cost of the long bed is very close to 4runner and it is fun to trucking.
How did you like the rims?? Looking to get some myself
Yes! Super sweet!
Looks sharp. Planning on doing suspension lift on my 2021 4Runner orp. I know nothing about it. Does it void your warranty?
Very nice truck and tires👍
Thanks 👍
Same size wheel/offset/tire I run on my ‘18 4Runner SR5. Looks good. Nice choice.
Heck yes. Nice and simple setup
I know it's not a flashy mod, but the regear is worth the $$. Put (Yukon)4.88s on my 4rnr w/ 285/75R17s and it actually is pretty spunky. East Coast Gear Supply was great for me.

Yea I’ve heard it works wonders in these TACOMAS. That’s great to hear!
nice video! Just got my New 2022 TRD and am in love!
Good choice!

Have a great Christmas Russel. Thank you!
Perfect look IMO, wheels dont stick out too far & the bronze really works well on the voodoo blue 👍
Agreed!!! Thanks!
The Voodoo Blue Tacoma looks great. Those Ridge Grapplers are quiter I bet than the Trail Grapplers? I'm actually thinking of switching over to Yokohama Geolandars next.
Yea these are SUPER quiet
Truck looks really nice 👍🏼
Thanks Victor!
Looks good! I’d recommend a trim before the tires do it for you.
Thoughts on ditch lights?
Any plans to regear? Or run the OVTune?
None at the moment honestly
@@TRDJon I’m in Denver. Waiting on a ‘22 ORP DC I have in order and planning to run the same setup. Thinking or wondering with the altitude if the regear will be needed.
Is this video with the cmc. Can mount chop/body mount chop?
Nice truck man, but I’m pretty sure those tires absolutely kill what little torque the tacoma comes with.. I think you’re going to have to re-gear either way, but you might as well get the build done first so you know exactly what you’ll need.
Looks great Jon!
Thanks Darrell!
Any rubbing on the back tires? Truck looks dope.
Not yet.
@TRDJon.... What size lift is on this Blue Taco .... front and rear? Leave rear at 3" or 2" ?
Close to 3 ish inches with the lift
Lift kit?
KDMax Tune & 5.29 gears with the planned additions.
I was about to purchase vtx wheels but i saw on tacoma forum theres a 30 page hate comments on how vtx copied stealth custom series wheels. When i compare them, they might be right. What are your thoughts?
All wheel companies copy a design some how. Tbh I’d look more at the weight and manufacturing process
I am new to the channel but I have a 2021 TRD Sport. Just been reading a lot on some of the suspension offered, but kind of sketched on how some people say the fit does not align?
Can you speak on that for the lift you have?
you need to get an alignment after the lift. Most don't get new upper control arms and it makes it harder to align without them
Are you from texas? I feel like I've seen your 4runner around! Love the bronze look, same as my red t4r.
Thanks! No I’m in Florida
Where did you get the black fender flairs for your Tacoma? Would that fit a 2016 4Runner? Thanks!
Those are stock flares. All trd off roads come with black flares.
What lift kit is on it I just bought 285/70/17s and I'm putting a 3 inch lift in the front and 2 in the back but I'm worried the tire will rub on the front upper control arm
OME BP51. I have a full video on my channel for it. TRD Jon Tacoma BP51 should find it.
What size lift?
about 3"
How come you did a BMC for just 285 tires?
In case I wanted to go bigger in the future.
Looks good
Thanks!!
Sorry but I feel the stock ones look better. If anything bronze TRD
So jealous. Can’t get a off-road in Canada with a long bed crew cab model.
Dang really???
@@TRDJon
Yes. From what I read it’s not a popular model.
See how fake I am. Points camera to road 😂😂😂😂😩💀💀💀
hahahahahah
What no credit for suggesting the bronze like mine lol just kidding
Hahahaha thanks dude!!!!!!!
Got a tune? If not. Get one. Changed my truck completely. Ott tune
Haven't needed it in FL
@@TRDJon I just mean you said it’s gutless. The tune really helps. :)
I suppose but it’s an NA motor so I don’t see the point honestly
@@TRDJon get better low end torque. And shifting is way better. Seriously, try it
You are correct. Just got a Tacoma tuned and what a difference.
Chopping & fabricating things on that truck is a no no.. if you would had gone with 3" bodylift & 3" suspension lift with this combination would had gotten nice 6" lift having 33" tires without the rubbing, butchering factory cab mounts & others who chop the main sub frame support is only weakening the framing integrity that comes with host of problems by chopping things..

Wide body trucks look ridiculous IMO.
Gas now at $4.20 lol
Yep
Those wheels look terrible! Tell you what, I’ll help you out. Sell me the setup for $1500. 🤣 jk. That setup looks sick!
Hahahah I mean…only if you hate them that much. I guess I’ll sell them
@@TRDJon I meant including tires. $1500 for wheels only would be a sick deal for you!
dont ever show a ford on a taco video!!!
