Default My New TOY.

I picked up my new FJ on July 29, my birthday present to myself. Anyway, I love this thing, I put my new rims and tires on it last night. 17 x 9 (-6) Pro Comp 7015 Wheels with Nitto terra Grappler Tires in a 285-70-17 (33x 12.5). My 2" lift is on the way, I hope to install that on Sunday. Anyway, check it out.

Bummer, another SUV that will never see off road.

All it's missing now is, SECCS stickers.

Nice... Did you get the optional physics exemption?

Now you can be one of the A-Holes all us Subaru drivers cuss at and then laugh at in the snow as you go blowing by us and end up in a snow bank.
