TRD Pro & TX Baja OFFICIAL Thread...

yes the fun will not come until I move back out west to AZ. desert and sand dunes is what am used to so being at my current locations not fun. I'm currently on IN so nothing around to get the truck dirty.

 

I have these and I'm very happy with them so far. 5000 miles. I had the Duratracs before and don't think they were any better in quality. These may be a little louder, and the fine pieces of rubber from pressing the tire are left behind in some places, but they wear off after being driven for a short while. They are a screamin deal for a similar version of the duratracs.

 

Now I have 285/70/17 Cooper sst maxx on scs sr8's. Honestly, they feel the same.

 

Honestly after looking up the tire calculator they are .01" different from your old ones so yea that makes sense. You have a lift on yours with those tires though right?

Nope, no lift.....other than the rear ICON Progressive AAL, minus the overload leaf. Some time in the future I plan on adding the Toytec spring seat spacers to my coilovers.
When I first threw those 18x9 Konigs on my BAJA, I thought for sure I'd need a cab mount chop. I was completely shocked that it completely cleared with no rubbing issues. All I did was remove the mud flaps and did some very minor trimming.....and remember, the BAJA/PRO lift is 1.75.

 

Yea I remember the height was 1.75." Damn I really wish I got some bigger tires now. Thanks again for the info. Got any pics of your ride? Would love to see how it looks.

I guess I'll put this information here as I could not find the thread about a member who had his TRD Pro totaled and got less $$ than what he wanted to replace it with another.

I was shopping around for a better APR rate for my truck and found out that pricing out our trucks using KBB as most banks use, a regular DCSB truck priced out with all the options will end up with a higher value than selecting a TRD Pro that has all the same options. Banks use retail used pricing for value on a refinance. Results was surprising to me.

Same options. Only difference is one is Pro and the other an OR

2015 TRD Pro $34,145 retail used
2015 TRD OR $36,230 retail used

 

You're right, KBB books mine at $1500 less than a similarly-optioned TRD Off Road. That's laughable.
Side note, the TRD supercharger apparently only adds $500 value on my truck with 15k miles. Lol.

 

Just checked NADA, similar story: average trade-in on my Pro is $850 less than an OR.

Maybe we're the fools, got duped into paying more for a less valuable truck

 

Here is with the old 18x9 Konigs
And how it is now.....with my SR8's

 

Man Im impressed when you go wheeling that they dont rub! Awesome man thanks for the pics! I just got in my 2.5 resi Kings so I am gonna throw them on tonight!

Took my girlfriends car to work today and came home to this surprise 265/75/16 ko2!

I also got iced lol

 

I have matching pinstriping.

 

Glad I'm not the only one using the truck as intended!

 

Looks like someone won today!

Beautiful. Would the 265/75s work without removing the flaps?

Is anyone (@Dorf?) running 275/70 on the stock Pro wheels & suspension yet?

 

I don't know, the trail removed my flaps almost right after I bought the truck lol

 

I'll chime in too. I have 265/75 ko2s and didnt have any rubbing but started to rub on the small flaps in front at full lock in reverse, ended up removing them.

 

i have 265/75/16's 6 ply.. toyo open country's on my pro,, they rubbed alittle on the small front flaps,, i just bent them both forward and no more rubbing or need to take them off..

 

Thinking about selling my 14 Baja 6sp, quick shifter, tow package, all wx flooring, supercharger, Entune, 17k miles....Been looking up for values, but as many of said there really isn't any accurate numbers. What do you think the truck is worth both private, and trade-in?
