    What wheels do you have? I'm considering doing this in the future as well. I've got the procomp 7069 which is a 16" and want to be sure the tundra calipers will not interfere with the wheel.

    Make sure to get the 199s not the 213s. The 199s were "recalled" because of insufficient strength.....on a tundra. Really they are more than fine for our trucks, and if you want the 213s you need to go up to a 17 inch wheel.

    I forget which casting is which, but there are 13we and 13wl.

    yep, and i can say i have had more blow outs on new bfj and good years then i have had on my treadrites lol

    all tires die, normally its because of improper inflation or a defect/damage to the tire.

    Finally found a decent price on a door check. Driver side is worn and driving me nuts, hits me in the ass daily.

    $76 new OEM.

    Local dealers wanted $105 up to $125.

    Yeah, I thought it would be $20. Don't want a junkyard part, because it will be worn out too. I'd likely let the P side slide, too. But driver side, holy shit. Every damn day. Steeply crowned street outside my house, and if parking up hill or there is a slight breeze...grrr.


    Getting an AAL to add to my Wheelers 5-pack too, to deal with the cap and bed mat weight every day, and trailer/camping loads.

    aren't the 213's what came on the tundras? I didn't realize they had 199s at all. so the 13we/13wl are the 199's?

    Bone stock. For now.
    I'm thinking about switching from my ARB bumper to the All-Pro tube bumper. I'm not sure what the weight is on it, but it's got to be lighter than my ARB.

    So, anyone interested in a very lightly used ARB?
