    -3in toytech lift -33" x 11.5" firestone destination m/t -16" x 10" mickey thompson classic II. -cut and boxed in body mounts so no more rubbing!! -black headlight covers -anytime foglight mod -35%tint front -5% over stock on back -custom built bull bar -mossy oak camo seat covers -k&n cold air intake -tornado gas saver -dual straight pipes. only tacoma i've seen with them and it sounds really good. (but not if you dont like loud) lol.. soon to come: -black headlight mod -aftermarket grill -blacked out emblems -headers -new shocks and leafsprings - considering all pro front bumper
    ive got 285s mounted on 10in wide rims.
    i got my rims and tires for 800 so thats why i have those tires. i think theyre a great tire, ive never gotten stuck with them in snow or mud, and ive been through alot.
    they clean out really dood in mud and in snow theyre not bad considering they're wide mud tires. they're pretty loud going down the road but that doesnt bother me.
    they only problem i have with mine is i never got my camber set right so they wore bad really fast. the ones i had on the front were almost bald and the ones on the back still looked brand new, ive rotated them front to back now. other than my own dumb fault they're a good tire.

    I've had firestone destinations a/ts on my truck for about a year and a half. Only complaint i have is wet traction on pavement if they were sipped this would help but we all know the ass ends of 2nd gens are super light to begin with. Everywhere else they perform very well and they are the lightest a/t you can get. i did see an economy drop but nothing dramatic.

    Do those 275s rub at all? Your suspension is stock, right?

    I realize the ass end of these trucks are light but I'm going to try REVO 2s next set of tires see if they do any better in the rain. I spin my tires all the time in the winter when its raining.

    i got a set of firestone destination a/t in 285/70/17 yesterday. my local firestone
    matched tireteam.com for $131 a tire. with the taxes and fees total was $649, got
    a $50 mail in rebate (gift card), so total is $599. that is a great deal, i think. hopefully my icons will get here next week so i can get them on.
