Just curious,what were the stock tires,I'm a huge fan of Toyo's but my 2017 off road came with Goodyear Wrangler Kevlar tires I'm going to give a chance on,been running Toyo A/T for years now

My stock tires are the same as yours, Goodyear Kevlar Wranglers. When I switched to the Toyo MT's, I kept the stock as well since they were brand new.

I'll keep them stored in the garage.

Picked up my new 2017 TRD Off Road two weeks ago and swapped out the stock meats for new Toyo MT's yesterday. I think I'm going to keep this look for a while and figure out if I'd like to do a minor lift or leveling kit, I don't know much about lifts but I do know that I like the looks of some. Going to do some research on what those types of modifications would do to my warranty and maybe speak to folks who have more experience with this. Anyways, here's a few pic's of my Tacoma as of today...

This is the EXACT build I plan on doing next year. Looks good. Let us know if you give it a little lift. Would love to see how it turns out.

Negative, not Cali. I live in the Seattle area and I had to order this truck because it was hard to find a new 2016 the way I wanted...and supply was very low on 2016's period with most surrounding dealerships in my area. I decided to use my Costco membership and took advantage of the Costco Auto Buying Program and placed my order with a gauranteed price after negotiating the price. Saved an additional $3,500 with the program.

So I decided to order a brand new 2017 TRD Off Road with the longer bed. When I placed the order for my truck, I basically ordered everything you could possibly order it with. Below is a list of options I threw in as part of the order package:

Chrome 5 inch oval tube steps
Bed cleats
Bed extender
Bed mats
Tonneau cover
All weather floor mats
Front skid plate
Glass Breakage Sensor
Mudguards
Roof rack
Rear bumper bed step
Premium Tech Package with JBL audio
Power sliding rear window
Front windows tinted to match rear windows

I then replaced the stock tires with the Toyo MT's 265/75/R16's. I like these tires better and give the truck a better, beefier look.

I have 2260 miles on my 2017 TRD OFF-ROAD. Had the wranglers with Kevlar....I bought the Toyo Open Country AT2's last week. I had the toyos on another SUV and loved them... more aggressive than stock and just as quiet. The toyos ride noticeably better than the wranglers, disperse water better and have much better OFF-ROAD bite. The Kevlar in the side wall is stiffer and comes out in the ride. I love the toyos and really don't see what is so great about the wrangler's. I had 3 adults ride with me on a short 180 mile trip. They all complemented how good the truck rode. Got 24.7 mpg too.
