I was at a local Toyota dealership picking up some stuff I ordered recently and asked how they drain the oil. It's gravity drain, not vaccum drain. The Service Manager also mentioned that he’s not aware of any local Toyota dealerships using vaccum drain. He said you could also ask to see the...

My 4Runner came with 20”, winters are in 18”, to compensate, the aspect ratio is adjusted so you get the same rolling circumference for accurate miles/hour. As previously mentioned, you get a softer ride because the sidewall/bead size increase but also… its generally cheaper for the cost of the...
