    So my 04 double cab that is no longer being daily driven. I use it for cross country road trips with off-roading mixed in. Then twice a week I drive it out to our state park or public land. I want an aggressive all terrain on it and like you said that shouldn't be an issue.

    Three out of the set are completely fine and have under 4oz of weight. I'm wondering if ordering another set of S/T Maxx is the move. I liked everything about them besides the vibrations on the problem tire. I found that they handled rain fine and did fine off-road. They wear well and they run larger than a standard 265/75R16, basically a true 32" tire. But if these name brand tires keep giving me issues then I might as well save some money and go with the Thunderers or whatever @Speedytech7 is running.

    My man:cool::cool:you've learned well in the ways of Toyota. Best tire I ever had on my Cruisers and was even decent on the S Utah slick rock, and on the roads they drive like a dream, like a caddy.

    That thing is gone. And just like everyone else with a truck like that... they completely rule out the possibility of ever even considering a frame swap. Inside of that dude's frame looks like the titanic.

    After we get our house I will. We are going to stay in Nevada where its completely legal. Also the places we are looking at all have plenty of room and large garages for it.

    @Tour991 Just imagine how more efficient you will be when your kid can start taking them apart with you. Her little hands will fit in so many more places

    I didn't say that. Sometimes you got to do what you got to do.
