(for those running r16 rims? the 245 85 r16 would be same overall size)
The difference is noticeable (the 245s fill the well nicely). And the ride is fantastic.
The original HTs SUCKED in the wet stuff on the Oregon Coast.
These new Revo 2s are a dream!



There is no rub or clearance issues that i've seen even though the 245s are 31.6" verses the original 30.5" . . . as the 245s are an inch narrower. The Revo 2s slice through the water patches like a steak knife verses the old 'butter knife' feel we had on the wider HTs.

And as a bonus; according to our GPS, our speedo is perfectly matched to these new tires.

Highly recomended.

Happy Trails,
Thom
I looked at these tires as well and glad you picked them up and posted about them. I'm also glad to hear the size you choose didn't effect your speedo either as that was a cause for concern too. For one reason or another, the OEM tire size seems to be a limiting factor when looking at new threads.

It may be me, but this thread is a bit one sided towards AT tires. I'm currently debating a good all seasonal tire and would be nice to see what others have looked towards for replacing the OEM tires with an upgraded version. Anyone consider Nokian WRG2s? http://www.nokiantires.com/tyre?id=1...me=Nokian+WRG2 They appear to be a traditional passenger car tire rather than a truck tire, but they do come in the factory size of 265/65R17 and garnish good reviews by those who bought them. Thoughts?

Cool nitto Trail Grapplers on 20" rim

Im looking at putting Nitto Terra Grapplers on my 2002 4x4 taco. I am planning on installing a Toytec 3" lift kit to add some clearance for my tires.
Here is the thing, I am currently running low pro 275/45/20s on 20" street rims and now i want to run more aggressive tires.

As I see it, I have limited options with my 20' rims and am looking at the Nitto Terra grapplers 285/55/20. According to the other posts, this should fit with no or minimal trimming.

The new Trail grapplers look sick, but are only available in 295/55/20. I am not sure this set up will fit even with my 3" lift kit. Does anyone know if these trail grapplers will work without getting too crazy without installing spacers, excessive trimming, rubbing, hitting control arms, etc.?

any input or suggestions are appreciated.

Aloha
