The Toyota Highlander debuted in 2001. It was one of the first midsize "crossover" SUVs to appear, and Toyota designed it to complement the more rugged and trucklike 4Runner. It has a carlike unibody design (unlike the 4Runner's body-on-frame design), which leads to better handling, less cabin noise, improved crash worthiness and easier entry and exit for passengers. Body-on-frame designs still have advantages as they are more rugged and better suited for towing. The Highlander, in contrast, is meant for people who like the image and versatility of an SUV but prioritize the ride, handling and comfort of a sedan. Think of the Highlander as a kind of oversize Camry wagon that went clothes shopping at REI, and you've got the general idea. The popularity of car-based crossover SUVs like the Highlander is growing, and in 2003 the arrival of capable peers like the Honda Pilot, Mitsubishi Endeavor and Nissan Murano threatened the Toyota's dominance in this segment. While these competitors continue to have their own advantages over the Highlander -- more power, more interior room, more style and more personality -- Toyota has made a number of changes for 2004 that make this utility vehicle an overall desirable package. Major highlights include a new 230-horsepower, 3.3-liter V6 and new options like a two-passenger third-row seat that folds into the cargo floor, a rear DVD entertainment system and side curtain airbags for the first and second rows. And the VSC stability control system is now standard on all trims. Even in its fourth year on the market, the Highlander (especially in base trim) offers one of the best values for the target crossover buyer -- which we figure as the family who really only needs five seating positions, a generous cargo hold and all-weather capability for occasional snow and ice during the winter months. Sure, maybe the styling isn't the most daring, but Country Squires weren't exactly the epitome of style in their day, either. If you're shopping for a family vehicle and thinking about a truck-based midsize SUV, it's likely that a more efficient car-based SUV would suit you just as well. Although you should definitely explore all your options in this segment, the Highlander offers a well-rounded package for the average buyer.

We strive to continually bring you the largest selection of custom wheels and discount tires in the nation at the lowest prices. Not only do we offer award-winning customer service but we also have a skilled staff of technicians waiting to serve you with your custom wheel purchase. Our warehouses sell our rims at savings up to 70% off of list prices and 30% less than our retail outlets. You can rest assured knowing that all wheel and tire package fitments are verified with our technicians before ever leaving our warehouse. Unless your car has been modified, all fitments are calculated off of the stock specifications set forth for your vehicle. We use plus-sizing techniques to match up your new wheels to stay as close to factory stock heights. In laymen\'s terms, you wheel gets bigger and your tire gets smaller. If you are hesitant about a wheel and tire package purchase, allow us to mount and balance the set and deliver it to your door ready to be installed onto your vehicle. We use state-of -the-art hunter mounting and balancing equipment. When mounting we use chrome valve-stems, stick-on weights, and road-force balancing equipment. We shrink-wrap and package the aftermarket wheels thoroughly for shipping. All wheels and tires are insured during transit. If you are ordering wheel spinner adaptors, they are generally shipped separately from the wheel for safety reasons. While we rely on our repeat business from satisfied customers, we are always looking for new customers to add to our growing wheel clientele. Do not settle for one of these fly-by-night companies on the internet that will nott be able to promise what they deliver or provide service to you after the sale because they are no longer around. We have been around for years and we plan on being around for many more years to serve our customers. Just give us a call on our toll-free number!!
