I pick this Tundra up last spring used (2008) with the intentions of it just being a weekend work horse. Picking up stuff from the hardware store and towing vehicles when needed, etc. I also said I wasn't go to mod it and leave it all stock.......well I lasted a full 3 weeks before I picked up a 3" lift kit, then another week before I added a spintech exhaust.
But I told myself I would run the stock tires until they were bald before I threw on something bigger.
Well I figured out a little while ago how to turn off the traction control, so finally the tires where bald enough for some new ones. :D

Just got it home, all stock

Sounds awesome when you get on it, but it can be very annoying when towing something down the highway

This thing is a beast to get down trails, but if there wide enough it doesn't do that bad considering it's a 6,000lb school bus :)
Just for reference, my girl friend in the picture is 5'1,

That's awesome! Sounds mean! I want to do 35's when my stock ones wear out. Feel any power loss?
 
You definitely notice the bigger heavier wheels, but it's still a hot rod when you need it to be :)
Still figuring out the mpg's but it's looking like I went from 18mpg to about 16.5. Not to bad, luckily this isn't my daily driver, just my weekend toy.
 
No the 40 isn't even close to being ready for FG :rolleyes:
I haven't put any time in to the 40 since spring time, I need to get motivated on that again.
