    Thank you.

    I hear you on the Coopers. People that know me know that I don't buy without doing the research, and believe me, the Coopers came highly recommended:

    https://www.tundras.com/threads/cooper-at3-xlt.29056/

    It's pretty crazy that they could work so well for some, and be crazy :censored: for others, like me. The amount of weight DT had to put on the wheels to balance them originally was not a good sign at all, as they had two layers of weights on a couple of the wheels. I hope the Geolanders work out; my best bud up in Minnesota is working a QC gig with a custom wheel manufacturer in Alabama, and the owner swears by them as the best tire he has ever had on a truck. We'll see.

    If this thing can tow my Taco and comes in at under 60k I might be staring at my new car cause gawd damn this is the best looking thing Toyota has put out since the og Supra. I’ve actually been in the market for an electric car as well

    definitely would need to color match those tear drop things under the headlights

    One of my new Toyos ripped open on a pothole (cement rebar) and Sam’s couldn’t order another one because they’re out of stock seemingly everywhere. So, they replaced all 4 with the Cooper Discoverers. So far I like them better than the Toyos.

    :notsure:

    Some people do. Your suspension/wheel setup is a bit more standard than mine. I wish you well!

    If anyone is interested in a Carven cat-back system let me know. Bought it for $550 and it was only on my truck for a little over a week.
