  1. Trouble with balancing tires

    No, they just said that they road force tested them AGAIN. I don't know if it's Discount or the tires that are the problem.
  2. Trouble with balancing tires

    Discount Tire finally resolved the balance issue, after the 4th try.
  3. Trouble with balancing tires

    No wheel spacers, and stock TRD Offroad wheels. I'll be going in today to order a new set of tires. From what I have read people with these tires like them. The tire adventure continues, hopefully for the best.
  4. Trouble with balancing tires

    That's what I have been thinking also. I'll probably end up ordering another set and cross fingers on both hands that they will not be defective.
  5. Trouble with balancing tires

    I bought a set of Nokian Outpost nAT's 275 70/18R less than a month ago. Discount mounted and balanced upon installation. I have since been back two more times for vibration in the steering wheel and noticing shaking/vibrations in the driver's seat and floor. Has anyone else experienced this...
  6. Spring lift vs collar lift kit? Pros and cons?

    Don't know about installing a lift, I just leveled my vehicle with collar on front springs. I will be putting on 34 inch tall tires and do not expect any problems after reading numerous posts on this site.
  7. What Was Your Father's Old Car?

    1967 Chevrolet El Camino, with the legendary 327 engine! Loved riding in that.
  8. Door Seal Rubber Edge Trim - cheap mod to reduce wind / air noise

    I want to order this seal, but the picture shows it on the leading edge of a sliding side door on a van. Any pictures with this seal installed on your SR5 FloridaPhotog?
  9. Squealing brakes issue fixed with heavier rotors replacement

    My brakes started squealing at 500 miles, now at 2400 miles and still have noise intermittently when backing up. Dealer wants me to leave it with them until they hear the noise. Ain't happening. Who knows how long it would be there until noise returns, and me left to hoof it without a loaner...
  10. Bike rack and backing up - problem

    I guess this is what the progression of technology has come to, driving an oversized computer.
  11. Borla S-Type Aftermarket Exhaust with Resonator Installed - Sound Clips (Videos)

    I went back to the original exhaust that came on the vehicle. Before I did, I had a 2 hour freeway drive. The drone was still there. I had the stereo CRANKED up to try and override the drone, no such luck. So I re-installed the original exhaust. Now I'd like to sell the Borla cat back system...
  12. Bike rack and backing up - problem

    I turned off the PKSB on mine, and now it beeps a bit when backing up but no brakes slamming on since then. I do get a prompt on the screen, I just push the back symbol on the top left on the steering wheel, and it goes away. This is with a Velocirax 5X bike rack.
  13. Borla S-Type Aftermarket Exhaust with Resonator Installed - Sound Clips (Videos)

    This is the first aftermarket exhaust on any of the Toyota's I have owned, 1st was a 1983 Toyota Hilux pickup. Only vehicle I've had an aftermarket exhaust on was a 1973 VW bug with a header/muffler before my numerous Toyota's. Total first world problem.
