Looks great! What did you have to do to make them fit?
Previous just had to remove front mudflaps and trim a little behind. So far no kdss rub and need to make a little more room in the "mudflap area" so honestly really easy to fit skinny 35s

What are your tranny shift points like now with 35s?

I had a 2014 Tundra (same 6 speed) and stock 430s when I jumped from 33s to 35s the tranny hunted for gears like crazy, especially up grades, it was maddening, it couldn’t find a happy spot

Eventually regeared to 538s and all was right in the world, but before regear, it was painful to drive

Just put details in Tire database but size is noticeable honestly not terrible with the 3.9s. Have only done my usual 20 mile commute but I could live with it doesnt hunt too bad but I generally dont use cruise if on grade to control the shifts. 4.30 swap is on the list and im sure once I start getting into mountains gears will happen sooner...

We haven't experienced any gear hunting in our drive-up the west side of Eisenhower tunnel 7% grade, nor any problems doing 2 lanes highways like Monarch and Wolf Creek passes 7-10% grade.
 
Same here. 35's and 6-speed with stock 3.7 gears and with 4.88. No gear hunting before or after re-gear. Obviously more downshifting with the stock gears, but never felt like it was struggling to find the right gear. Lots of mountain driving.

Same Tire set up as well. Drive all over Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and Montana and never experienced any gear hunting.
 
Thanks guys

Interesting on lack of gear hunting…

Possible 200 and Tundra have different ways the speed sensors feed into the ECU?
