Louder Engine Noise w/ New Tires

You'd think I'd be like a kid with candies in his hand with this set of brand new tires? I couldn't stand the look of my stock tires so I bought the BFG a/t ko for the look and the good reviews on them. I have to say I like the look of these tires on my taco w/o a lift. I kinda miss my stockers for the comfort, handling, and MPG though. I use my truck as a daily driver so this heavier set of tires will set my bank account several thousand dollars back each year on gas. I also plan to take the Tacoma on trips across the country in the near future so this set of new tires isn't the ideal tires for my plan either.

 

To set it back several thousand would be an overstatement.

 

I drive like a mad man so that does not help on my MPG.

 

The BFG's look good
What is your wheel & new tire size?
