Daily Driver Tire and Wheel Setup

My truck is my daily driver and spends little time off road. I wanted to replace the 18" Limited wheels the truck came with, and selected TRD SEMA wheels as the replacements. Easy part, tires were a harder choice. I was considering KO2's or Duratracks but didn't need the off road capability, and didn't want the vibrations many on TW have reported. I selected Michelin Defender LTX M/S and I don't think I could have made a better choice. Not bad looking either.

 

Looks Good and those are some good tires. I don't have them, but know people that do and they all like them.

 

I have a set on my wife's car, my ford and my parents have them on their tacoma and 4R. I want a set, I just hate That they aren't aggressive, however I don't need them to be. Dang the form vs function struggle I have. You will love them!

 

My buddy runs the Michelin LTX in his Tundra and loves them.

 

If you want something that looks aggressive and performs well on the street, get a set of 265/70/17 Falken wildpeak AT3W’s. They’re actually pretty cheap and do perform amazing off road. They balance easily, so no worries about vibrations... and last 45k+ miles.

They behave way better than my previous KO2’s both on and off road. Im on 285/75/16’s which wouldn’t be necessary for anyone who doesn’t go off road.

 

Looks good!
