BaconLord47[OP] initial post: ↑

I know there’s been a ton of these threads, but figured i’d post anyways. I’ve got a 16 TRD Sport with FN FX Pro wheels. I’ve been using Bridgestone Duelers since 16k miles and currently at 44k they’re down to 3/32nds (regular rotations and highway miles). My biggest complaint with them is that:
1) They look like minivan tires on my truck (Size and tread).
2) They wore down quickly.

I don’t offroad with my tacoma pretty much at all. I mainly commute about 60 miles a day (highway). My biggest wish list item is more aggressive sidewall without compromising too much on mpg or ride quality since I mostly drive highway miles. I’ve looked at these tires so far:
1) Nitto Ridge Grappler (heavy?)
2) K02 (not as good in rain?)
3) Falken Wildpeak AT3 (balancing issues?)
4) Michelin Defender M/S (“minivan tires”)

What tires would you guys recommend? I don’t personally know anyone who uses AT tires besides people using K02s. I really like the agressive look of the grapplers but am nervous about the weight of the tire. I’m currently 265/65/17 and was looking to go to 265/70/17 (only step up that won’t rub without a lift I think???).

Thanks!

I love the grapplers for performance and looks, they are very heavy..
