    I've been on the fence moving to another tire size. Originally went with Toyo RT 275/65/20's on the Toyota OEM 20's. Truck rides smooth, relatively quiet ride.

    Had Toyo RT 33/12.50/20's installed recently. First impressions, aggressive look, ride feels firm with noticable noise increase (expected). 3.5" lift with upper control arms. Haven't experienced any rubbing.

    I am happy with the Toyo RT's in general, I've had them on several vehicles. Just not sure about the size/ride on the Tundra.

    Looking for general input, my first choice would be Toyo MT's its a great tire if you are off road more then on. Had the Toyo MT's on my last Tundra the noise got to me after a while. Majority of my driving is highway, occasional snow, sand, fire roads.

    BFG's are solid tires all around.

    Did you paint or powder coat your wheels? They look sooooooooooooo much better than stock.

    I havent shopped your sized tires so i dont really know whats available but i recently did shop around for some 295/70r18's.

    I really liked 6the falken wildpeak (i think thats what they are called. Ill have to look them up again). They looked good and had great reviews. Sadly they on back order. They were also a lot easier on the pocket book.

    There are alot of really good options which definitely make it hard to settle on one.
