JDM Truck - Toyota Tacoma on Watanabe Wheels

This  JDM Truck, a first generation Toyota Tacoma in Japan, is on slammed in a set of Watanabe Wheels. Being this low, this Toyota Tacoma looks to be bagged. The Watanabe wheels tuck really deep in to the wheel wells, giving this truck a low stance.  Behind the front grill appears to sit a large intercooler so it’s probably safe to assume this truck is Turbo. - JDM Truck: JDM Toyota Tacoma on Watanabe Wheels
