Anytime! And good call. Looked like yall had a great time out there.

 

Despite not being able to get to the features I wanted to see, it was still a great trip. Looking forward to the spring so we can do it again but we’re gonna go 87-260 instead

 

@KingOfTheNorth ive seen the video for the first post on the wedge camper thread. One of my inspirations lol

 

Yeah that will happen. I need a bit more snow before I go out. I like it deep. Let me know come spring time and I will meet you out there and we can go explore together. Only takes me a hour from my door to get to the top of the rim.

Yeah it is a good one. Looking forward to see it come together for you.

 

Will do brother

 

So, in the not-too-distant future, I'll be in the market for new shoes on the truck. Currently, I'm running Cooper ATIIIs and had good luck with them. I'm thinking of going to a more aggressive tire as the truck is not a daily anymore. What are you guys running? I was thinking of the ST MAXX this time around, but open to all suggestions. Ive had TOYOs on my RAM a few years back, and they were fantastic but a tad heavy for the taco.

 

I’m loving my Nittos, maybe get the TrailGrapplers if you’re looking for a mud tire, or the RidgeGrapplers for a good hybrid…idk if they come in a C load though

 

The Maxx's werent bad.. but for the price.. I'd probably look at something else. Maybe take a look at the new Mickey hybrids? I do love my Baja Boss MTs.. especially in the D load range. I dont think I'll ever run E's again on the Taco.

 

I have the Ridge Grapplers on the runner. They were/are good. No complaints on those. I am shopping for whits truck right now and havent decided yet. Thinking of following josh with the Baja bosses tho. We shall see what happens.

 

Next time I get tires imma be looking at C or D range for sure

 

If I could have afforded the Baja Bosses when I actually needed tires I would done em lmao but I’m happy with my TerraGrapplers so far

 

for the weight on the taco is D load I will need. The 4runner isnt terribly heavy and could deal with the C but will still aim for D when the time comes soon.

 

I'm basic. I have Ko2s and have had no complaints

 

She wants the D…rated tires

 

You and I have similar suspensions, be it your truck is heavier than mine. Jumping to 35's, any big concerns? I'm on 34's now. I'm sure I can trim the flairs and pound a little, but I don't want to have big rubbing concerns. The TC Race lowes limit my turning radius a little so maybe that's to my benefit?

 

its definitely a commitment and some work to get it running right.

 

Tires is just the topic for the day! I too am looking at new tires, Cant believe the Falkens are same price as the Mickey Baja boss.
I very happy with Falkens but kinda wanna try a new tread. These damn rock in the desert put a hurtin on the side lugs. Seem to have torn a few off the last run out.

 

yeah my wildpeaks prior to these Mickeys got chewed up really bad. same thing.. lugs ripped off. probably around 20k out of them.

 

Toyo, Nitto and Yokohama are my go-to’s. I’m on Kenda RT’s right now I like them except they pick up all rocks in the tread. I’ve had Coopers and they always sucked when trying to balance, always had vibrations.

 

I could never get the Coopers to balance. HAted them. Luckily they were on my wifes truck and not mine.
