Wow. Didn’t think it would fit.

 

Offset: +20

Was surprised myself, thought they were going to be 34s.

So there you go, 35s and load range C. Pretty cool. Personally I would do 33s for lower rotational weight, but that is just me.

 

Thank you for following up , apreciate that. Thank you

 

You’re welcome.

 

Plus 20 or negative 20? Isn’t negative moving outward away from the frame?

 

Yes. People have been running varying positive offsets on the 4G to get the wheel back under the fender. I read somewhere +55 came with a stock rim in a particular trim, forgot which. Our TH rims have +20. This is a departure from the 3G, where negative offset was common.

 

I see - dumb question then - where is the extra track width coming from? The +55 / +20 delta?

 

im averaging around 21 mpg using 87 octane (regular) with probably 80% highway driving. I also just installed 1 inch spacers (not shown in photos) which in my opinion makes it look even better. But, I had to order mud flaps now bcuz mud is being flung up the sides of the truck now

 

Thank you

 

TH comes with +20 stock - any reason you wanted to do +25?

 

My theory on the felt is that there are more electronics at the wheel and more wires they needed to pin back there behind the flap. But that’s just a guess.

 

Wheel well liners have always been hard yet semi flexible plastic, the change to felt is cost cutting, lower trims are now using felt skid plates (more like splash plate) when they use to be metal.

Yet another sign of Toyota getting cheap in areas, while charging more. Not a trend I like seeing. If they are cheaping out on the basics where-else did they cut corners?

 

Probably so. My 3G had a very hard resin material up front. It was indestructible. Not sure how these will hold up to constant power washing.

 

My front skid is metal.

Here in the north, it is going get ice buildup most likely causing it to tear. The stuff is falling apart already with people barely touching it. They are also lining the storage bins under the rear seat with it. The premium they are charging for these trucks they need to do better.

 

I can’t argue with that.

 

Most of the rest of the truck looks solid - frame, body, etc. time will tell.

 

It does, like what I am seeing elsewhere. Bunch of nit picky things. Like why didn’t they use the 22 gallon fuel tank out of the Tundra? That is probably my biggest hangup. Filled my truck up yesterday, pulled 378 miles out of that tank. Waiting to see if they addressed that flaw with the 25s, but I highly doubt it.

 

The felt does do some sound deadening but it should be on top of something more robust if that was the goal.
