Huh, saw a tundra in person with 295/70 on stock 18" and looks just right

Been thinking these were just too darn big for a DD but darned if they don't look just right in the flesh. Was wanting 305/65 but now......I dunno.

 

I'm a big fan of 295/70-18's, they seem to be the perfect size for what most people want.

 

Ditto! Hoping they're okay for a 4.6L

Should be fine with some aftermarket wheels and some AT's in place of those heavy stock steelies and MT's.

 

Law....

I'm wanting the Boss on my 4.6. You don't think we will have any problems with those 295's do you?

 

I have 275/70's on my truck now and it rides great, has plenty of pickup. I'm not too sure how much 295/70's would affect it.
It may be just fine as long as you don't go with an MT tire.

And the BOSS would be perfect. Heard the radflo's were even better than the BOSS.
I'm perfectly happy with my BOSS setup though.

 

It never crossed my mind that the 4.6 wouldn't have enough getup. I was hoping the ko2 would come out in that size if not then I'm not sure what tire to go with

 

Toyo AT's come in that size and are a bit lighter than the KO2's.

I'm willing to bet it should have plenty of get up and go with that size. A couple of guys have said it's fine on here, but one doesn't even use his as a DD and has 35's.

 

Running 295/65/18 Duratracs on stock 18"

 

I run 295/70 Nitto ridge grapplers. Can't really comment of the 4.6, but I think they look just right for the truck...

 

I'm running 295/70s on the BOSS setup with a 4.6L

Ride is good, but she's a little slow these days. A re-gear will be done if I keep this thing.

 

But you're also rolling with some heavy ass MT's

69 lbs vs toyo's at 64 lbs.
my 275/70's are sitting at about 55 lbs

Should be alright I think.

 

I put 295-70-18 on stock steel rims. No noticeable drop in get up n go, 4.6. I did add 5100s on the top setting and 1.25" spacers. That was to prevent rubbing, I've only heard them rub twice, can't see any marks and can't reproduce. The tires are Michelin Defenders. Not aggressive tread, they're as close to "street" tires that I can find in LT tires of that size. I wanted that style since my off road driving is 95% sand and the Michelins have served me well on previous trucks, less aggressive tread is better float on sand. The 295 is also the widest that I could find that would fit on the stock 8" rim.

 

any problems with rock chips? cause im loving that setup!

 

I love those duratracs. I can't wait to get another set

 

I've added spacers since that pic was taken, but without them I don't see it being an issue. With the stock (Pro) suspension they fit perfect without any rubbing, I didn't need to remove the flaps or anything.
Now that I've added spacers, I needed to do a little modding, and am thinking I'm going to add bushwhackers...

 

How much height do they add to the truck?

 

About an inch ~ inch and a half from stock

 

What's happening All! I'm new. Wanting to know what DD stands for and what's the Boss set up?

 

DD= daily driver
Boss is Toytec Boss lift

 

Thanks.

 

Once is enough. Any more than that I'm tired and she's board.

 

Outstanding

 

It's only fitting that a MOD jumps in and drags a thread through the gutter

 

And of course I'm the ass hole that brings back a dead thread.
