    What a world of difference in ride quality and overall feel. First Tundra, kept running across badass Tundras when looking for a LandCruiser project, now I have a daily driver and project in one. Can’t wait to get the time to take her out and play.

    -new tires, 295/70r18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers, ride great, they are a tight fit but haven’t found a way to rub them yet

    -ESP under seat storage, easy install, no increase in road noise with seats up or down

    Did you drive the truck before the underseat storage? Just curious if you can compare the increased in either exhaust tone or road intrusion after installing.

    I drove it for about 3 weeks, highway speeds and in town, all kinds of road surfaces and quality, radio on and off. I do not care to hear my truck from in the cab and was very concerned about a difference in road noise. Happy to report no discernible difference.
