Hi from new CrewMax Owner!

Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I traded in my 05 Double Cab last week for a new 08 CrewMax, and I love it. I loved my old truck too, but this thing is awesome!

I've already started the mods including, debadging, window tint and Volant CAI. Any other ideas for mods for someone who is on a small budget right now? I want to get larger AT Tires, any idea what the max size is that will fit on the stock, non-TRD, wheel package? Thanks for any ideas!

This pic was about 10 minutes after getting home, pre-debadging, which made a huge difference!

CONGRATS!!!!!! I love my truck and know you will the same. I pull a camper and it tows it awesome. I want to get BFG KO's when these wear down a little more. They have a aggressive look and if you get D rated it holds up on the sidewalls better and rides better in my opinion.

Thanks, that is the direction I think I'm going with the BFG's. They do look nice and I hear they last a really long time.

Tires

Just be careful if you get an agressive tire tread your milage can suffer, from the wind resistance they cause, there are reasons the Tundra's get such good milage for a large truck, they are low and sleek, but BFG's are excellent and if you stay close to stock sizing they should work fine, if you have Nav, there settings in there to adjust for tire sizes, not sure how with the standard stereo. Debadging always causes second looks.
