Heading out to do some tire shopping. 5 for the Tacoma. Expect shock.

 

Well if you quit the night time yoga you would be fine :} I knock on wood I have never damaged my back but a pulled muscle now and then. :{

What are you going for ? I will be replacing mine next month all 5 also going back with the firestone destination A/T 2s .

5 donut spares

 

In all likelihood, another set of Cooper STT PRO's, 'cept this time they MAY be 35's.

Will price for comparison, KM2's....May look at a new M/T out from Yokohama. They will be mud tires though....

 

Good luck and hope you get to enjoy the day off. At least somewhat. They have me on 500 mg of Aleve twice a day plus a pill to help protect the stomach from it. Does seem to help most days.

 

I was thinking Hankook dynapro AT
next month as well

 

Yep !
I did not do the spare when I put them on left the OEM on , it is due after riding under there for 8 years. I put them on at 57k and have 135k now they are only rated for 60 K so I got my money out of them.

I blame it all on the sins of my youth...

 

good to know I will be passing through sometime tomorrow morning

 

Hey @Tacoma Mike
What in the hell is a TPMS Valve Service Kit?? And what would drive the need for it ? I see an argument in the future they add that in automatically at firestone ... :{

I'm really happy with the Coopers. I put a set on the Jeep and the Tacoma and both ride good and are wearing well.

I usually don't have a problem with the Alieve but I don't take it very much (though I do keep a small bottle in my lunch box). I do have the problem with my normal meds. I can usually eat a couple Belvita crackers and that does the trick. I get the ones with oats so it'll help with the whole cholesterol management thing. I think the last thing I need is another pill in the daily rotation.

 

Winding up the 2nd set of STT PRO's now. Just hit 40K. I can still sell 'em for $250 or so....They get loud once the sipes wear out. I've got clearance for 35"'s...Got enough gear...Just not 100% convinced the brakes are enough. Gonna have to come to some sort of decision....soon....

 

I'm not Mike, but it's the seals around the TPMS valve itself. Most tire places will just add that to the bill and do it since they have to take the valve off to service/replace. I have gotten Discount to waive the fee if I make enough noise, but each time they replace them anyway. If they have been on there awhile it is a good idea to replace the seals though.

 

Take it easy and rest that back !!!!!

I purchased a set of those tires in 265's and absolutely hated them and a month later purchased a set of Toyo Open Country Mud terrains and very happy with them . Now have 15k miles on them rotated and balanced every 5k miles and no signs of tire wear

 

My wife's favorite band and also how I feel about my job.

Also, if you will be going out in the snow or rain, make sure you wear your rubbers. Boots.

 

I will have to check I am pretty sure I replaced the seals last time I just hate when they do the upsell shit . I have to tell them when ever I have been in for my either of my vehicles just do this and this do not waste my time or yours that is all I want done.
