    Toyo at2's what I have and I love them.
    Duratracs, terra grapplers (might not be as ballsy as you want), st maxx, and toyo RT's should be up your alley

    As for wheels
    Black rhino, method, fuel, FN BDS, raceline, plenty other brands have good 18-20 offsets. All about what blows your skirt up!

    Nice truck! Color matched (or plasti-dipped) bumper ends would go a long way. Tires and wheels would definitely take it to the next level.

    Super Nice Truck, man! Quick question for ya. I too have bilsteins on the front and Toytec shackles on the back. Had them installed 2 weeks ago. I also had the poly bushings installed, and I am getting a crazy amount of squeaking now from the rear suspension. Thinking about taking it apart and greasing everything up with some lithium grease. The dealer installed (and scratched the paint on the rear door in the process, ugh) and I don't know if they used any grease on the new bushings. Have you had any similar problems? I read of one other guy (either here or on another forum) having the same problem. Thanks!

    Do you have the stock tires on there? Im about to get the same suspension setup and was curious if you could post a picture of the side so I can see what it looks like with the stock michelins.

    I like the Toyo R/T . I've had a set of Toyo A/T and there both great tires but I like the look of the R/T better.

    No squeaks here... but crawl under your truck and add grease top and bottom of shackles where the nuts and bolts are.

    Agreed. I love the RT's. I may get them in a 275/70 or the AT's in 295/70 next time around. I gotta keep the weight relatively low since I got the 4.6L

    I swear when time comes around to get a new tundra, I'm getting the damn 5.7L LOL

    I would have to remove the front grill to get a better pic but It's actually very easy to install. My suggestion though is to remove the grill when installing as you'll have a clear view of what you're doing. I did it all from under the truck. Don't have to remove skid pad or anything. There are 3 screws left and right side that hold the bumper cross beam. you need to remove 2 screws from both sides, install the bracket and tighten them up. BUT I eventually had to remove the front grill to shave a small amount from the bracket that was rubbing against the cross beam. I think another member here also had this rubbing issue that caused squeaking noise.

    Same company. Same rubber compounds and very similar tread patterns across their product lines as well.

    Law, I made that terrible mistake buying my first Tundra, won't happen with next Tundra. I'm also concerned about moving up to a 295/70/18. I will probably just go up to 275.

    The 275 AT is just fine. No power loss and speedometer is SPOT ON. I think as long as I don't go MT in 295, it'll be fine.
