Burt, The Old Man With friends Daryl and Donna

I was really surprised to see it come part luckily it didn't fully plug up the cat. It's probably a placebo but it does feel like the 2.5" exhaust and new cat help with some torque.

 

I test fit the 285s on Burt. I expected to have rubbing issues on the pinch weld since I have yet to touch it and these are a wider tires and a more offset wheel than before but I still have around 3/4"-1'' to the pinch weld at the closest point. I rub the frame, but I always have with this truck so that's nothing new. But it clears the UCA, Fenders, Liners, and Pinch weld so its hard to complain about that.









The Bronze on Black looks good. After my drive to work this morning I didn't noticed much of a difference compared to the Toyo. These are a little shorter, but wider and heavier so its all evens out in the performance of the truck.

Comparison of the Falken on the truck and Toyo unweighted. Both tires are at 26Psi which is my road pressure.

And the Toyo weighted and Falken Unweighted. On average the toyo is close to 1" taller. As to be expected.
They give the truck a nice aggressive look but I doubt I will want them on the truck all the time. I like the Tundra wheels a bit more. But I do like the Matte Bronze.

 

Wheel and Tire History of Burt
I have changed Wheels and tires enough that I figured I might as well keep track of them.
First was what it came with, Bald BFG KO 31x10.50 C Load on the Factory 15" Split 3 alloy wheels.

Second Was a set of 235/85R16 General Grabber AT2 E Load on 2nd gen SR 16" Steel Wheels

Back to 31x10.50 GoodYear Duratrac C load on the Factory Split 3 15" Wheels, but painted a Matte Graphite

I moved up to 33x10.50 Mickey Thompson MTZ on the same 15" wheels.

Then onto the 34x10.50 Toyo AT3 D load, on 17" Tundra Split 5 wheels.

Then 285/70R17 Falken M/T on 17" TRD Pro Sema in Matte Bronze
