    Not the best looking tire but the best all around tire. For what you described my old setup would be amazing. Some lightweight SCS Stealth S6 wheels paired with Michelin LTX tires. I also had Fox 2.0 front shocks that raised it ~2”.

    Both are Stock - built correct from the start.
    Story. My son had a bone stock 2009 TRD Sport. He wanted a "better look". He put on exact size replacement BFG AT's on still stock truck Lost 2 mpg from just that. Someone once said to me " it costs to be boss"!

    This thread is a few weeks old now, but I get 19/24 on a regular basis. Some leeway there obviously but I would say I average 21. I decided on Bilstein 6112 and 5160 along with add-a-leaf. For tires I'm going to do 275/70/17 as I've heard they are a semi modest size and won't require CMC. Anyways, I'll report back here when everything is installed and I get some results.

    absolutely right.. exactly what I have. They are 4lbs lighter than stock wheels and tires per assembly. FN Countersteer with Michelin Defender in 265/75/-16. Did 600-700 miles all offroad in CO without any problems at all aired down to 13-15 psi.
