    Another Tires question?!

    That's great to hear! I'm looking forward to testing them out in the mountains the first week of May.

    Another Tires question?!

    It's been a long time coming but last week I finally got the new tires and wheels installed. I thought I'd come back to this old thread and provide an update. I decided to also get a full Dobinsons IMS lift kit installed at the same timel. Still rides great...maybe even a little better than...

    Another Tires question?!

    I think any weight that we can lose is good, so go for it! I previously had a couple of motorcycles and weight is even more important on a vehicle that light. I dropped some rotational weight on my street bike by swapping wheels and it was an amazing difference. Way more of a difference than...

    If I post them now it will just be some wheels on my garage floor. 😂

    Yeah, I’m not willing to put too much money into wheels. Let’s me save for the lift more quickly. That’s the fun of setting up your own rig. You get to make each call to suit your needs.

    Another Tires question?!

    The off-road tend to be cheap. I bought dealer take offs because the guy wanted the TRD Pro wheels. That’s pretty common here. Getting TRD Pro for cheap is much less common. I like the look and the chrome matches the GX in my mind. Mostly I wanted 17” wheels and these are great quality for...

    Another Tires question?!

    Now that’s a bummer. I found several places that listed the trd off road wheels at 25lbs. I thought “Roody doesn’t know what he’s talking about. I’ve verified the weight.” I already have them so I just went and weighed one in my garage and it said 29.8lbs. BOOO. I still like them for the low...

    Another Tires question?!

    From what I’ve read, the TRD wheels are at 25lbs so I’ll save about 6lbs over my oem lexus. The tires will be heavier for sure but I’m hoping that the overall increase won’t create too much negative impact. Several of the mentions of C rated tires are also interesting and helpful. Doing...

    Now your getting me thinking about the spare tire more.... Thanks chiming in, I appreciate the perspective as I hadn't thought about the smell. 😐

    Another Tires question?!

    As a stock suspension (for now) I was wanting to the additional height that the 33.1 provides. Like a tire lift ;-) So, durability hasn't been a concern for me as much. The smaller contact patch was an easy trade off for me because of the lack of mud and sand compared to the rocky terrain around...

    Oh, one other thing. My use case is to explore Colorado and Utah for weekends/camping trips. I work from home so I don't really rack up many miles.

    How do you store your tire? Just in the trunk? This is also a consideration but I'd really like the added height if the offsetting issues aren't too bad. I would keep it in the trunk normally but through it on the roof when going into the mountains.

    Another Tires question?!

    This is exactly the type of input I was looking for! Thank you. I have a typo it was a 265 for the second tire, not a 275. That is driving some confusion...sorry about that. Here is the correct info with tires added. I pulled the info from TireRack.com. 1. 255 80r17, 33.1", E rated, total...

    Another Tires question?!

    Hey team, I'm working through a specific question and would love you input. Specifically, I'd love your input on rotational weight. Here are my two options. I think I get the benefits of the tire options but more curious about how you've seen rotational weight impact your performance and mpg...
