yes, but to be honest, i hardly used my factory fogs. i do want fog lights again, but i need to spend the $200-300 elsewhere first (rear springs, rock sliders, skid plates).

yeah, next time i need tires, i might look at some 285s on the 16s. however, i might want a 4.5" backspacing for those.
i'll have to pass on the coilovers and shocks, thanks though! just keeping it simple with the OME. i'll probably end up with the All-pro sliders as well, but i do really like the demello stuff. i've been on their site many many times, hehe. next planned mods are rear springs and i'll paint the stock wheels black. of course i'll post pictures when it happens.

right on! from what I've been reading on the taco forums, with the stock fenders, 285's on 16's is the best route.
I eventuallyl want to upgrade to a long travel setup. There are a lot of nice 05+ Tacomas with the baja look which makes it hard not to do. This is a perfect setup right here! This thing looks so sweet with the Walker Evan wheels. He's running 315's!
