275/70/r18 K02s before 295/70/r18 Wildpeaks after

I bought this Tundra SR new in 2017. I finally added a Toytec ultimate 3/1 suspension lift.

I first tried running the stock steel 8 inch wheels +60 offset with 275/70/r18 BF Goodrich AT K02s. It was pretty cool, but not what I wanted.


So I exchanged the tires for a set of 295/70/r18 Falken Wildpeak AT3w, wrapped around Method 18x9 inch MR701 wheels with a 25+ offset. Had to remove the front mud flaps but I’m looking for some aftermarket offset flaps to take their place. Really happy with this setup so far.

 

Looks nice, especially with the black bumper/grille

 

Did you really feel a big difference in power loss?

 

No, not at all. I think the weight kind of balanced out between the tire difference and the wheel difference. If anything it actually feels smoother and less resistant which I know sounds weird but sure feels that way. The wildpeaks also roll smoother and make less noise. My mpg is still exactly the same at 13.0.
