GEN 3 (2022+) Wheels and Tires Photo thread

Oh Sorry, They are made by a company called Fast and the model is: FC04x. They make these specifically for the Gen 3 Tundra as they have a center bore of 95.1mm. I think these are the only vehicles that have that bore and 6 x 139.5 bolt circle. Mine are gloss black metallic and you can get a cool red cap to make it look more TRDish.

 

17x8 Method 316 +25. Wrapped in 285-70R17 Falken Wildpeaks. Stock suspension no rubbing.

 

After a year of running stock TRD OR wheels with Cooper LT275/65R20 tires, decided to go all out.

First, coopers are awesome, not my first cooper set. However, these tires are heavy; significant hit on mpg, power and ride quality. For me, the latter two were major problems.

I decided to go for larger tires, but lighter. Specially, went for Wrangler Territory 315/70R17, which are 9lbs lighter than coopers, wrapped around Methods (MR305 17x8.5 +25mm offset). Total wheel tire package is now about 18-20 lbs lighter per wheel, which is a lot.

wow, ride quality is awesome now, will have to wait to give an opinion on power and mpg..

In 2 months, my King suspension is coming, so front will get 1.2 inch lift.

ps: truck has stock height and suspension. The rear axle has about 400lbs load,my old tires and wheels.Hence it does look relatively level.

Any one have experience with the Nitto recon grappler in the snow and ice ? I know it doesn’t have the 3 peak snow rating. I see conflicting reports of them and would love to hear anyone’s input

 

Looking awesome! That is a perfect wheel poke tire setup. Have you checked clearance when flexed?

 

I had to remove the front mud flaps and fold back the wheel well fabric felt. No rubbing issues I have noticed so far driving normally and fully turning the wheels, but have not flexed it off road yet.

 

35” BFG KM3s x 17” Volk TE37XTs -10 offset

 

finally installed my 18” methods with Michelin 275/70

 

None at all. Plenty of room. I tow a drift boat and motorcycles. Nothing very heavy.

 

Yes, TRD Sport. AT3's are fine. They are quiet and offer a nice ride. I lose about 1mpg it seems like.

 

Looks mean.

What did you do with your take-offs?

 

Sick! More pics please.

 

Nice! I’m thinking about going with Michelin LTX as well. Nice setup.

 

I still have them but I will be selling them as a tire/wheel combo soon.

 

Thanks man! Here are a few more. The -10 offset gives it a lot of poke but looks fine with bigger tires.

 

It looks like a whole different color depending upon the lighting

 

Ok - after basically lurking and asking a question here and there. Now I have done some stuff worthy of post and pics.
Here are details of the mods (and a few notes on my experience):
- Rough Country N3 struts 2" up front
- RC great on the phone/delivered on time
- Easy install by local Kal Tire, alignment was very close
- Not an engineer but laying the factory/RC part side-by-side clearly the RC is beefier and quality appears good
- Initial performance - controls big new boots well.
- 35x12.5/18 BFG KO2 12 ply
- good price from Kal equal if not better than Falken and other options

- Replika Wheels
- great price

 

Where the pics??

 

dammit posted accidentally - post now improved with actual pics!
No rub - and I tried. UCA clear by an inch.


RC N3 2' struts
BFG 35x12.5/18
Replika 8x18 +60

So far so good - shout out to Kal Tire and Kaiben in Metro Vancouver - amazing service and price.

 

Thank you, I’ve alway put Michelins on all my vehicles..

 

295/70/r18 40 psi and I gained and inch of lift no level on stock suspension

 

My question is what psi are you running on your 295-70r18’s

 

Looks great. I like the stance.

 

How do you like the ride with the new tires compared to stock? I would imagine those extra ply’s make some difference.

 

Yeah iPhones or any camera phones seem to have a hard time showing the actual Solar Octane color. Most of them come out red

 

Thanks!

 

How’s the ride with that leveling kit ? That one was like $500 ?

 

New to the Tundra club and loving it. 2023 Limited Hybrid. Found some slightly used black TRD wheels and want to put bigger tires. Want to go with 285/60/20's and want something that isn't too aggressive to keep road noise down and maintain decent MPG/power because its my daily driver. Deciding between these tires:

Falken wildpeak trail
BFGoodrich KO2
Continental terrain contact

Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!

 

I had continental terrain contact on a 2013 Honda Ridgeline. Very good tires on road. Quiet, super grippy, did well in rain, lasted 45k miles with half tread remaining.
But... terrible in mud and snow. I mean terrible. They are basically a street tire with a bit more aggressive look and an "A/T" label.
I liked them so much that I seriously considered them to replace the Falken AT3WA (note the A) OE crappy tundra tires. Then my memory of terrible snow performance and getting stuck in a simple mud puddle came back and I went a different direction.
Hope this helps.
