    The size you have is really popular on full sizes aswell. You shouldn't have a problem getting something for them on craigslist. Regardless of the condition. Mine on the other hand are smaller than most full-sized tires. I'll probably be better off just selling my rims and tires together to someone else with another Toyota.

    When the time comes, I think I'm going to get new 18" wheels and those new BFG all-terrains or Nitto trail grapplers

    Looks great man! Before you did this did you have a clanking sound under your truck along with the vibration? Or was it just the vibe issue? Im still trying to find a solution to my problem

    That's true for you & me. 18" wheels with a 275/65r18 or 285/60r18 would look very good on your truck.

    Thanks Josh! All I had (& still do but less) is take-off vibe & low speed shudder. I never had a clanking sound. Do you notice a difference between having the 4WD engaged or not? Do you feel it also or is it just sound? Is it only on take-off or is it when stopping also? When I see you again maybe we can try to diagnose it.

    I would if it wasn't for work. We're pretty short staffed at the moment, and being the area supervisor, I get stuck doing the OT shifts that no one else wants. Ohh well...money is money...

    Gotta pay for those retros somehow.

    So, since the hump, my horn has sounded funny...is there an actual chance that there's mud in the horn? Is that possible?

    The horns on my truck have a metal plate in front of them so debris doesn't go in there. How do yours look? I assume they are the same.

    Have someone keep the horn pressed in your truck while you tap the actual horn with a small wrench & listen for any change in sound.

    I wouldn't doubt it...
    Also, decided to check my air filter, and it's disgusting. 20k miles and that thing is toast...

    blocking plate. they are pretty out in the open behind the grill
