I run 16s with the toyos

 

what kind?

 

nice. That will be sweet. I have seen one of their tire swing outs in person its beefy as fuck and a nice design.

 

17 was the plan exactly because of the lack of tires. There are some Nitto tires people where talking about but I have no idea. First truck always had hatches before this. If i get the 17s tire size suggestions?

 

Nice wheels. I love my 16" wheels. My wife has 17" on her tacoma and likes them. What direction do you plan on going with your truck? You going to wheel ot or you going to use it as a good looking street truck? Depending on use will give you a better answer for tire choice.

 

Its my primary vehicle so I cant do anything to crazy but I want something that can preform off road. I know its hard to have both but i figure there is some middle ground. Most of the off roading is going to be out in the desert if that helps. Packed dirt and sand mostly.

 

The Nitro Terra Grapplers were my favorite tire .. until I tried the Toyos. I would still recommend the Nitto's tho if that's what you're lookin at.

 

I do a lot of camping and target practice. This truck is going to make my outdoor life endless.

 

I was going to go over to the Tempe Desert Rat location to see if they would help me out with tire sizing. They match any price online which is awesome. I just dont know what size would fit well on these tires.

BTW do you guys do any AZ Taco meetups?

 

Gotcha. Well I always recommend a more rugged looking tire anyway. I think they just look awesome on our trucks. But like josh said the nitto graplers are a great tire allot of guys like and will work out great. I like the mtr kevlars personally. It fits my trucks uses better. (Im up north in show low so snow mud and trees)

 

If I remember correctly 275/75/16 is the largest without a lift. Discount tire will match and beat any price quote on any tire. And yes all the time with the meets

 

I want to say the biggest size you can put without a lift is 265/75/16 or 265/70/17 but you have to take the front mudflaps off that's what size I ran before my lift

 

Awesome. Think I am going to go with this...

Method Mesh 17"
Nitto Terra Grappler 265/70R17

I love the look of those tires...

What part of the state do you guys usually meet up in?

 

You might be right Jaime. I wont know till I go look at my truck. I went the biggest I could in prep for the lift and ran about 10k miles before lift install without rubbing. But once again im not walking my happy naked ass outside to look


There are meet ups all over the state depending on what you are looking for. Phoenix has them all over the place all week it seems like. Like I said im up in show low . So if you are ever up my way give me a heads up ot if you have any questions anout out door activities let me know

 

Its a first gen avid dual spares.

 

I'd like that if I had a first gen another rim and 2 more tires.

 

After reading a bit online I guess everybody is in the same battle...

Toyo AT2 vs General Grabber AT2 vs Nitto Terra Grapplers

I think I will take Moose1988 and from what I have seen most of the internet's opinion and take the Toyo's (unless I find a slamming deal on the others)

 

Ya man I know its a sweet tire carrier but way more than I need right now

 

Nobody likes my Terra Grapplers on my X.... and I wanna come chill at the new pad!

 

Got to have a safety meeting there to make sure its safe to live in and safe to party in safety first. Josh doesnt always see the best.
