    Knock knock! bumping this thread for some info.

    For yall that upgraded wheels and tires for a RWD 4cyl Auto with the 3.43 gears(A01A code), how did the acceleration / highway speeds effect you with whatever tire size you went with?

    Please list your tire size as well.

    I'll have to buy shocks soon so might as well make some upgrades. planning on a minimal lift up to 3/2 and going with up to a 29" tire max on stock rear diff. Might only go 28 or 28.4 depending on how doggy the bigger tires might make vehicle feel.

    I've noticed the RPMs are pretty low at highway speeds even on stock rims. around 2,100rpm. What rpms are you sitting at with those 31s cruising 65 or so?

    That makes no sense to me. if you have the same auto trans and rear diff, the bigger tires would make you have less RPMs unless you're never going into 4th gear /OD.

    General AT2's, LT235/75-15, 28.9 inches and 33 lbs. Frankly, it sucks. Stock is 26.9 and 23 lbs. I can barely get off the boat ramp with an 800lb boat and trailer without smoking the clutch. Much slower of the line and fuel consumption increased 15-18%. If you're going much bigger than 28 inches, I think a regear is in order. I'm going back to 215/75 when these are done.

    I’m telling you. My truck runs and drives fine on 31’s. Gas mileage took a hit but worth it for how it looks. 28” is gonna be small

    95% commute in bad traffic. 5% service roads for camping and hiking.

    The transmission programming on this vehicle is very very eco friendly so for me, at the moment, looks and off road capability are taking a back seat. Ideally this truck will be gone in a couple years anyways for a V8 Tundra or Sequoia to tow my track car and be a daily this 4bagger just sort of fell into my possession thru family over the holiday weekend.

    I saw that. Sorry to hear. I have no good pics of it. It's all stock and not a looker. Has faded paint on hood and roof. I plan on cleaning it up. My brother in law hardly ever cleaned it and it has always sat outside.

    Stock again- rip slug
    My truck does good with 235's and stock gearing, Idk how the person above me is struggling with them lol. In 5th it takes up to almost 85 mph before I'm at 3k rpms. If I'm at 80 it's like 2.8k, very smooth driving.

    When I go to 31's I will regear to 4.11's prerunner rear end with e locker, though. I think the truck could still do it with 31's, but I drive a lot of highway. I also go up north a lot and would HATE to try and drive up there wit 31's on stock gearing. On 235's I still dump to third once or twice for the drive up north and have to be at ~3.8k RPM's to stay steady at 70 with traffic. Hills are our trucks' main weakness
