That’s sad. That was a 747, the Queen of the Skies.

In all seriousness an ideal tire for these trucks id say is a 35x11.50. Very limited choices unfortunately. But one of the best tires I have ever ran offroad (even on road considering how aggressive they are, are not too bad) is available in this size. Nitto Trail Grapplers. I will die on this hill.

Edit: I'd love to try the Geolandar G003 MT though...

Ima go 35x10.5 I think, fck gearing

Some kendas? I'm still on stock 4.10s clutch might peace out this summer. Helps a guy to really learn to feather it...Yours autos now though?

 

i thought I cooked my clutch on 35s after a couple years with 3.90s but it's still hanging on 5+ years later lol. I did regear after the first few years, driving across the state in 3rd gear sucked lol

Big Tire is laughing all the way to the bank by convincing people that 33s are “small”, and that 35s are the bare minimum to go off pavement. A decent driver can go very far on 31s, especially on these trucks that have such good clearance from the factory. I’ve said it before, but they used to run the Rubicon on 31s and open diffs before everyone thought they needed tons and 40s for it. The trail might’ve gotten a bit harder since then with erosion, but still.

 

bro do you even wheel or are you repeating what someone else has said

 

tbf 35s are the bare minimum for a lot of jeep/Tacoma owners who have zero wheeling experience and don't know how to pick tires placement and lines on lil ones

 

I’m just saying I’ve had a lot of fun on 31s and 32s. No im not running KOH, but the important thing is to just get out and explore.

 

Im 4th everywhere haha. Cant imagine the 3.90s in town

 

You realize you are contradicting yourself damn near 100% compared to shit you've said about these trucks; whether it was the weak differentials, the requirement for a locker, the need for large tires, and more.

You are completely contradicting yourself and Kira basically pointed out that you're repeating shit we've stated here before.

 

Yea it’s one thing if an experienced driver truly starts to reach the limit of their 33s and goes up a size to run some harder trails, and that may be the case with people in this thread. But it can also be a crutch for poor line choice like you said.

 

Yes. Please school me on wheeling. Im all ears. I've been through the stages of tire size. Theres more than one argument siding with bigger tires other than ground clearance...

 

Well I guess you’ve convinced me then. Tbf I don’t think I ever said anything about needing bigger tires.

 

I was more referring to people that jump straight to 35s cause someone on instagram said they needed them, rather than people like you that gradually upsize as they gain experience and start to push the limits of their setup. The vast majority are better off with 31s.

 

This is no different than the person just buying their truck and upgrading to expensive suspension right away.

We've all stated it here countless times that for the novice, the truck in its stock form is far more capable than the person drving it.

Same for shooting at the range, shooting photography, and many other things.
