Just in contact with my dealer and he confirmed that Toyota is investigating all LCs with a sunroof and hopefully clearing them soon. He passed along that there is a problem affecting about 1% of them where the drain channel is not draining properly.
Take this with all skepticism due towards...
So how much further out would this set your rim in comparison to stock 18” rims?
(Sorry, all this offset nonsense makes my head spin)
I also want to use a 285/70/17, but I would like to try to get by with stock rims u til I have driven for a while and decide the direction I am going in.
Maybe...
I’m not sure if interior colors only match with certain exterior colors, but I will tell you that the Java is sparse. For whatever reason, not many interiors come in that color.
I really like the Java and that was a must have for me so pretty happy to have a Java interior waiting in HC...
Did you reset when you took ownership?
I think it has been stated that vehicles run idling for long periods of time when they are checking them out and before people take ownership
Not sure if this was mentioned earlier, but dealers are telling customers they estimate a 30 day delay for the QC. Hopefully not any longer and crossing fingers for shorter.
I don’t really know anything about ceramic coatings, but have read that it is an easy thing to do yourself. Could a person just by the products and apply to a new vehicle?
Anybody with experience in this?
The reality is that aesthetics is a big part of tire upgrades. People may not go to a more aggressive or larger tire for any purpose other than it giving the vehicle a more bad ass look. And if you are spending this kind of money on a new vehicle, you can probably afford to get the nice rims...
Take your increased tire diameter and then take 1/2 of that, and it will give you your increased clearance between the diffs and the ground.
But yeah, aesthetics.
Thank you so much for providing info and pics (more please, BTW).
This confirms my decision to go with 285/70/18 to begin with and then try to add a spacer lift.
I second the picture request please!
The plan that I already laid out with my dealer is to have the 275/70/18s installed at arrival.
My gut told me that 285/70/18s would, but I didn’t want to risk it.
Your impression after going to 275, is that a 285 would fit??
I mean no offense by this - I am genuinely confused by the people that sort of group the LC with smaller unibody vehicles. The Cruiser is never going to satisfy you if you are using smaller crossovers as your comparison point for acceleration or ride. It is not what this vehicle is meant to...
