Picking up 5 BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain T/A 255/75 R17 tomorrow! Will post up some pics once installed.

 

Trimmed the front mudflaps last night. While I had them off I had to idea to line the mounting surface with plasti dip in an attempt to make a more paint friendly surface. Taped off the majority of the flap but left a small lip around the edge that touches the paint. In short.. I wanted a layer of rubber between the flap and the clearcoat.

 

Traded my sport wheels and 100 cash for theses bad boys.. hows that for an amazing deal? Have some General Grabber AT2s to throw on them soon..

 

Always wondered how my Taco would look with more aggressive tires. Looks awesome and looking forward to seeing the anthracite with the BR

 

Easy answer.. EVERYTHING looks good with Blue Ribbon

 

Hey man, nice truck! I have the exact same one. Just wondering if you saw a noticeable mpg drop with the mud terrains?

And did you "have" to trim the front mud flaps?

 

Eh.. you dont have too. If they rub it would be on a part of the mudflap I didnt trim. I only trimmed them for length purposes. They damn near drug the ground. I haven't seen a huge drop.. maybe 1-2mpg, but I have the 4.0. My AFE highflow air filter and charcoal filter removal could be masking some of the MPG drop.. who knows.

 

Ok cool, thanks for the reply. I have already trimmed my mud flaps for the same reason. It's pretty bad when you scrape sped bumps in a truck. Just wondering if there was any rubbing.

 

By how close the tire comes to rubbing it I would assume that it would rub under certain off road conditions.. but I plan to lift very soon so no biggie. Under normal driving conditions they have not rubbed yet but they come damn close.

 

Gonna have one of the BFGs for sale if anyone needs a spare. It has about 50% tread left. 255/75/17. Local only, not worth shipping cost. Was thinking 40 bucks for it if anyone wants it. It is shown mounted on the rear of the truck in the pic above.

 

5100s should be delivered today! Front coils and AAL wont be far behind.

 

dry, white toast huh?

good start anyway, love blue tacomas

 

did you dip the wheels yet?

 

Gonna do it this weekend. I may just dip them matte black. After playing around I'm not sure the anthracite with gloss would turn out very well so I may just take the easy road.

 

Got me some new TRD beadlocks and LOVE them.. A member on here bought them, ran em for about 2 days, and decided he wanted to go a different direction. Traded my sport wheels and 100 bucks and bam.. new shoes.

 

New tires on the new wheels! General Grabber AT2 265/70/16. IMHO these ride better than the BFG All Terrains.

 

congrats, Looks awesome.

 

Thanks man, just got the rest of my lift parts on order today. Should be riding a little taller here soon!
