    I missed WORRTY-FREE. But anyone can buy 6 used/empty boxes from someone and fill them with knock-offs.

    If you use petroleum based tire shine products on your wheels , it will speed up the cracking process … try to find water based products. Sometimes they sell people old tires, I always ask to see the manufacture date before they mount them “new”

    Looks good! I was going to get these but got a killer deal on some 285's. Notice any difference on MPG?

    Hey there, my current suspension setup in these pictures are stock TRD Offroad suspension plus the airbags in the rear. Front clearance is better than I thought, the only part rubbing driving on road was the plastic corner I had to cut off, it looks like it clears the metal part (body mount) pretty good but that definitely has a lot to do with your wheel offset, my wheel offset is +6mm and I don't think anything more "pokey" would work or clear.

    Thank you!

    Thank you, as far as MPG, I think it is still too early to tell, however, the 255 FALKEN is around 57lbs and only 2-3 lbs heavier than the 265 KO3 they replaced, as far as power loss, I think it is just slightly sluggish than the 265 but not really noticeable because it wasn't great to begin with lol

    After the Falkens have been on, I immediately noticed an improvement on ride quality/comfort, Falkens felt more plush and slight more "flexy" side walls in a good way. I suspect it is due to the narrower and taller profile. They are both load range E and have the same PSI so they are comparable, and difference stated above was noticeable. Also they felt more smooth than the KO3, and KO2s in that sense. This is coming from me owning 3+ set of KO2s in varies size (33,35,37) and KO3s in 32 inch.

    Quick note if you decide to pick a set up. The mounting brackets for the molle are installed under the existing bed rail. Be careful removing the factory bolts during installation - mine were fused and needed to be drilled out. Just a heads up.

    Thank you for the heads up, and yes I just saw that on their installation manual, since I already have the canopy camper setup bolted onto the side tracks, I am probably not going to bother the additional effort of removing them and retorque etc. Thank you again for your help!

    Does Toyota put a picture of the plug on the box?

    No. And the other thing I noticed on this ad pic, they don't show the gap points, so there is no telling if these are actually iridium, or the old fashioned regular sparkplug tips. All plugs are pictured with the plastic/paper sleeve covering that part of the plugs.

    Counterfeits would have the copper/nickel electrode shaped to a fine point like iridium ones to visually fool the buyer. The electrode would then burn away to nothing (and cause misfires) in less than 10k. Had this happen with Amz-sourced counterfeit Densos in my father's Subaru. Changing plugs on a boxer engine in the middle of winter isn't fun.
