17" TRD Pro rims and BFG AT TKO2s...

265 70 17

 

Update:

Had these on for two days but today I’m
noticing they seem a little bumpy. I went on the highway and it seems like too much. Not sure what would’ve made the change or how they would have become unbalanced overnight when I’ve barley driven on them.

Might have to take it back and check the balancing. The steering wheel seems fine though. It’s not shaking but I can def feel the bumpiness in the steering wheel and the seat. When I stop driving and get out it’s almost like I can still feel the bumpiness in my hands. Doesn’t seem like they feel normal now or at least like they did the first two days I had them on.

 

Is your speedometer still accurate?

 

Yeah it seems to match up well with the GPS on my phone.

 

Probably just the geniuses running load rating D on light trucks like Tacomas are having the issues in wet conditions.

 

I just got the C rated and no issues in the rain. I floored it turning onto a main road from a stop in this crazy rain we are having right now in the South East and it stuck with no spinning or sliding at all.

 

Got them balanced again and they seem better. Still a little harsher ride than stock but I guess they are just stiffer. I think they are fine now.

 

Did you get them installed?

 

I’m gonna be posting a set of these wheels for sale in So Cal within the next few days. Already off my truck and ready to go, just need to snap some pics.

 

Yes, I did.

 

How are they? Look and ride quality good?

 

They couldn't look better. I was shocked by just how much it changes the look of my Tacoma. The ride quality is great. No bumps or drifting.
The road noise is noticeably louder, especially between 30 and 50 mph. Outside of that zone it is quiet.
The dealer I had them installed at was about 50 miles away. On my way to the dealer: 25.0 mpg. On my way home: 23.6 mpg. My way home was slightly different than on the way there (had to make another stop), which probably reduced the average by 0.4 mpg or so. So I'd say I lose 1 mpg with the new tires.

 

I assume that is mostly on highway driving at 70 or under?

 

Yes.

 

Need some pics!

Where did you end up buying the wheels at?

 

I actually got them to rub doing a hard right turn and had to brake very hard since some moron wanted the whole road, good thing I had some Bilstein 6112/5160 to put on it

 

Actually bought the wheels at my local dealer. $700 for the set. Toyota dealers have a 4 for 3 deal, so after selling my old ones it ended up being $800. Couldn’t be happier.

 

I want these KO2s but I’m gonna stick with the TRD Sport stock wheels for a bit. Anybody know if you can go 265/70/17 on the stock wheels and suspension with no issues?

 

You should be fine.

 

Late to the party and not original but after looking around I loved this look the best. Got the wheels on a memorial day sale for 640 shipped and tires from DT for 841 OTD. I do get them to rub unfortunately in a turn going into a dip. Do think removing the mud flaps will take care of that?
