Hey, Decided to see if Lexus GX550 wheels and tires would fit without modification…they did! So I am super pleased with the look. Now for the troubling part or the question to this community. TPMS sensors don’t work from Lexus to Toyota without some kind of reprogramming according to the local parts person I called. What is the cheapest fix for this or do I just leave it as is…no dash lights like GM or Ford at least not yet! Thoughts?

Been thinking about getting the hitch skid plates for my truck. It seems like a solid upgrade for protection and off-road durability.

No doubt they do protect the hitch and undercarriage from rocks and rough terrain, which is a big plus for off-roading enthusiasts.

I haven’t installed one yet, though, and I’m wondering if it’s worth it for my truck. The advantages like added strength and peace of mind sound great, but I’m still on the fence.

Would love to chat with anyone who’s installed it on their truck, to know the best place to get a good, reliable hitch skid plate. Any tips on installation or brands to consider?
