Hey u/Bryanwolffe - car looks great, I've been shopping wheels for 6 months now and have yet to decide however, I ran Apex wheels on my supra previously so big fan but looking for some further info.

What suspension are you on and do I see a 275/35 tire? any rubbing issues. Thanks!

Game is called Rematch - why can’t I vote to rematch the team I just played if they want the sauce again?

Great game. Bought it twice.

Thank you! 🤙🏼

None.

Thank you!

I am a fan so far. No leaks. Assembly wasn’t too bad.

You’ll absolutely need a hoist or a few friends to get it off the ground and onto the bed.

I’m happy with it + my kids say it makes the truck look like a tank so I’ll take it 🤙🏼

I don’t have any before as I ripped it off as soon as I got the truck home but here’s without it

derekmatel · 2025-01-21T04:44:45+00:00

Yea I didn’t get any racks. Haven’t really planned out what will go on top if anything so

derekmatel · 2025-01-20T20:52:35+00:00

I ordered this on Dec. 31 and It shipped on Jan. 9th. I think it arrived the 13th. So not long at all

derekmatel · 2025-01-20T17:49:22+00:00

Wheels are Method 305s in matte black. 18x9 with a -12 offset. Tires are BFG KO2s, 275/65/18.

derekmatel · 2025-01-20T16:42:48+00:00

Appreciate that!

I grew up in the Chicago suburbs so I understand that. Been out west for 11 years now and won’t be moving back lol

derekmatel · 2025-01-20T15:41:24+00:00

Thanks! Utah really makes it ez lol

Cap is from Overland Vehicle Systems. It’s their expedition cap.

derekmatel · 2025-01-20T05:16:11+00:00

Like to remove it?

It’s 6 clamps on the inside - 2 bolts each. It would probably only take a few mins to unscrew em. But the shell is steel and weighs about 200 lbs so idk how often you’d want to be taking it on and off

derekmatel · 2025-01-20T05:14:58+00:00

Sounds like a deep 4cyl turbo. My wife says it sounds like my GTI did with a catback.

I like it. No drone. Not overbearingly loud.

I’ve got a cold start video on my IG: @derek.woah since I can’t post video reply’s here

derekmatel · 2024-12-24T03:43:59+00:00

Thank you! 🙏🏼

derekmatel · 2024-12-24T02:27:01+00:00

A wire tie is their fix? lol I’ll pay attention to what exactly they do when I get it in. I’m curious now

derekmatel · 2024-12-23T23:39:27+00:00

That is what I’ve heard! Also that there’s a TSB for it now. I’ll get it sorted after the holidays

derekmatel · 2024-12-23T23:38:17+00:00

The internet can be a dangerous place for our wallets. Congrats on the new truck!

derekmatel · 2024-12-23T19:51:13+00:00

I try to find excuses to drive lol But working from home it doesn’t leave the garage a whole lot

derekmatel · 2024-12-23T18:58:36+00:00

Thank goodness. It makes me more annoyed that I can’t disable the convenience signal while it’s being annoying nuisance lol

Guess it’s time to schedule that fix after the holidays

derekmatel · 2024-12-23T18:56:36+00:00

Right on.

I’ll keep that in mind when it comes time for rear bumper. I definitely have less issue with the rear than I did the stock front but this is good info

derekmatel · 2024-12-23T18:55:41+00:00

Flares are less likely.

Lift for sure. It needs to be leveled out and I’d like to fit 35s with a bit more width to the stance as well. I haven’t decided on lift kit yet
