    I think tundra brakes work with 16's......... IIRC.. Might have to do a small bit of trimming on the caliper. Beat's paying extra money for tires with a 17" rim.

    Ok so i have a small change of plans. I Believe i want to get a 17 instead of 16. Im looking at selling my 265/70/16 Hankook DynaPro AT'ms. (With factory steel wheels) And getting a new set of 265/70/17 tires along with either some 17x9 XD SPY, or those gear alloy i was looking at earlier. I have more of a selection going with a 17x9. But i cant decided what tire i wanna go wtih. i really like my hankooks i just may wanna try something new. any ideas?

    Ok well thats good cause they are more of an A/T to me anyway but Yes a buddy of mine with a Dakota just got them, and in sand they are phenomenal, just a lil skinny pedal and no goin back and they just dont quit diggin, they also clean out very well and are pretty good in other terain.

    Good decision on the 17'' rim! As for tires, i have 265/70/16 right now. They seem small! Do you have a lift? I have coilovers up front and plan on getting 285/70/17 for my next set of tires. Its basically a 33 and will look a lot better IMO. I would consider getting 33s. Sick choice for rims btw.
