    These wont work on a second gen will they? I think i read you must grind the caliper?

    Also I get my new tires tomorrow!!!! Toyo Open Country AT II. They're a brand new release from toyo. They look a lot like the ATs but more aggressive. I am almost stealing them. Ill post pics and start a review when I get them on.

    I'll advise against grinding the caliper. Rather they will work with wheels spacers.
    There's quite a few second guys on here with them.

    Heres pictures. They are a brand new Toyo AT II. These are a 265/75R16. I will do a full report on these tires as soon as I have some time. I was looking for a more aggressive all terrain, and was eyeing the duratracs, and the authorities. After talking to my tire guy he said these were just coming available. This set was the first he has put on, and usually I'm not a fan of toyo, not because they arent good tires, because I think they are. They are just usually so overpriced that I dont think they are worth it. I pretty much stole these tires...

    I'm definitely interested in hearing how these work out. I've been a fan of Toyo for a long time and currently run MTs. I've had the original ATs in the past (on another vehicle) and loved them. Good looking tire!

    According to Toyo...

    [​IMG]

    They're the best all around tire they have for Pickup/Light duty

    ...and come in 83 different sizes/options.

    I've narrowed down the ones that a Tacoma owner with a 16" wheel may install.

    I must suck at searching. I was looking for info on these new tires all over. and couldnt find squat. Well done.
    On edit. They must have updated their site since last friday. Its plain as could be and I dont think I'm that daft to miss that. I could be wrong though.

    LOL

    I took the picture because there was another member with a very burnt taco said there's no way I could possibly make my truck any blacker. I proved him wrong. I got black lug nuts and took this picture :laughing:

    Not yet. A lot to do before the party.
    This weekend we get to clean it.
    Next week I start hauling boxes on the way to work.
    The next weekend maybe more cleaning maybe some remodeling.
    Maybe the weekend after that we move the furniture.
    Followed by a lot of unpacking.

    If you need help hauling stuff, just holler. I've got my AC plus a little 4x8 utility trailer. I'm out of town from the 6th thru 9th, but available any time other than that.

    Thanks for the offer Bob.
    But like I said next week I start hauling boxes on the way to work.
    And when most or all the boxes are there we're renting a truck for the furniture.
    Escrow closes on our old house at the end of the month. So we don't have to hurry.
