    I can’t help you besides saying you should talk to @Road_Warrior for tire advice. I got mine based on reviews and they looked bad ass! Very heavy though and make the ride stiffer.

    It's an open discussion and my concern is Wheel/Tire weight.

    Here's a thread I replied to and 62.8 lbs was the tested result for my truck.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2021-trd-sport-17”-rim-wheel-weight.744017/

    Now, it's time to weigh/compare: 275/70R17 and 285/70R17.

    Is that a "Reflection" on the frame?

    Yes, it is a reflection on the frame, which you see grass reflection.

    OK, so here's a couple of photos of my truck TODAY at the Auto Hobby Shop on DAFB:

    I was the first one in the Shop and got my 1hr/Lift Time!

    A couple more pics before I go to bed...this oil change is becoming easier to do the more I do it!

    Check out the funky OEM orange filter I bought at the Newark Dealership Service Dept.

    I didn't miss it. I stopped then snapped a pic. Then back washing the rest of it. You should have thought of that. I mentioned about the frame in my post. Silly goose.

    Drove 200+ miles to Middle River, MD today...

    Alignment/Shocks worked as advertised/felt Great!

    Front Braking still feels different than from before...a little more vibration on heavier application.

    I was on a full tank of gas and I'm down to just under 1/2 tank.

    It's been about 3 weeks since my last post.

    Brakes are pretty much back to normal.

    The service tech said it would take time for things to seat properly...and they have settled very well.

    I'm using my side steps even more now! lol

    Installed 2 weeks after purchase May/2021 but posted in Oct 2021 as viewed:

    Congrats.

    It has been 7 years since I got mine.

    If I didn't pay off in the first year, then I would have paid off this year which I got 7 years term but paid off early.

    Momma always said, "get a loan without a penalty for early payoff." lol

    I took a 5yr/60 month loan at 1.8% and did do extra $50 payments here and there in the last 2 years.

    It will be super exciting to pay it off...which is what keeps me from even considering a newer vehicle. lol

    I've always kept/maintained my new vehicle purchases so this will be my intent with my Sport.
