    I was wondering I any one had any good or bad experiences with Big O Tires for te Tacoma? I am looking at 265/75 R16 or 265/70 R16 Big Foot tires made by Big O Tires. No loft on the truck.

    It's between te Big O Tires or Nitto Terra grapplers.

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    There is a few people that run Big O tires that can chime in. I would run them but I don't have one close like I do with America's Tire and Les Schwab. That's the only reason for me.

    I had a set of the AT's on my 95 4runner and liked them. I only had them for 7k before I sold the 4runner, but they were quiet and did well in rain and off road. Plus the warranty is nice to have.

    Thats good to hear. I will probably try the Big O Big Foot tires.

    Now I just have to decide between the 265/70 R16 or 265/75 R16

    I just purchased the Big O AT a few weeks ago in 31x10.5R15. So far they seem great - no complaints from me. They're quiet - unlike my last tires - and they've done well on my first trip (800 miles round trip including 160 miles of rough 2 track / dirt roads) with them on the truck. The true test will come this winter when I get to find out how they handle in the snow. Two guys at the Big O here run them on their rigs and they've been to a lot of the same places/trails that I have been. They swore that these tires wouldn't disappoint.

    I can't seem to find what 31x10.5 means? What type of suspension are you running with those, is it lifted I should say with the 31x10.5?

    31X10.5 (standard) is the equivalent of 265/75 (metric)
