Hey crew!

I've had my LC for about 6 months now, a black 1958 that I'm absolutely loving. It's the first new car I've ever had and was quite the upgrade coming off a beat up 2005 Tacoma. So far, all I've done to my LC is remove the iForceMax badge, remove the air dams, and put a Stickerfab American flag vinyl decal on the rear driver-side window. Next up would be A/T tires and possibly a roof rack.

On the tires, I'm leaning toward the 275/70/18 Toyo AT3 EVs, but could be swayed since it'll probably be at least a few months until I do them. KO3s also call my name, but they are so dang heavy! Btw, does anyone know if Discount Tire will pushback on jumping from the 245 size to 265 or 275?

Thanks in advance. Cheers!

Appreciate the warm welcome, but just to clarify, I haven't served in the military. I just think the flag decal looks rad and would like to see more people proud of flying it once again. And my username is initials which I now see the confusion - thought I better nip that in the BUDS haha.

Ha! I thought for sure with the American flag and BUDS name you were a navy seal!

For safety/security reasons, they typically don't identify themselves unless separated/retired from active duty. Especially if they drive something cool like a LC250 .

That makes a lot of sense
