Pro tip, I can go 33"s on my Tacoma with no lift and no cab mount chop if I go skinnies. Depending on how wide of tires you play with, you might be able to go above 31.5"s, but I also realize you like your wider tires :). Worth mentioning as I realize there may be others watching this with Tacoma's and the Tacoma is pretty similar to the Hilux the closer I look(I have a lot more looking to do too).

Rodney! Keep a 31.5 265 75 R16 you can absolutely tackle anything with a rear locker and winch with this set! I think it's pretty underrated! Remember that you still have to drive to your destination and 33 on a dual cab is slow and pain to fit!

Bought a 2021 Tacoma TRD Off-road a couple of weeks ago. In the US most of the mod vids show people putting easily more than 550 kilos of everything and anything. I was looking at bumpers, racks, rock sliders, winches, rims/tires. The diesel would be great, but we only have two gas options, my truck having the v6, gas mileage is approx. 19 miles per gallons, what 3.8L per 1.6k. So a big thanks from Pennsylvania, because I thought I was being overboard with my ocd wanting to not put more than 200 kilos of extra weight on. I do have to say, the front of the HiLux does look better than the Tacoma in some ways. Oh, and this is my very first Toyota, saying it here first, I went from a Mercedes c300, BMW 335i to a Tacoma, I am addicted and have no regrets.

Ronny the guy who install your new tires really know his job well, all new tires have a colored round mark somewhere in the sidewall this dot indicates the spot where the skeleton of the tire merges together, this spot is the heavyest of the tire and need to be placed exaclly in the valve of the rim in order to have the best possible allighnment, if you froze the video on 3:56 you'll see that they have put the yellow dot correctlly next to the valve, it's something that most tire shops don't know and of course many owners too. You can see this mark also in the spare tire you're holding which was instoled from the factory but instead of yellow dot it has a red dot 4:05

I have found for someone who is 50/50 driving that the Goodyear Duratrac have been outstanding for me on Wear, Noise and Durability. Awesome Luxy (Taco) build, if only the Yanks would get their crap together and get some diesel options into this country the so called Big 3 (Ford, GM, Ram) would have their work cutout for them...

@kadmow3 жыл бұрын
It is all "just maths". ie. it can be calculated and corrected via an OBD2 programmer. (if factory tyre size = 30.5 inch; 31 inch = 1.6% bigger ...( 32 is 4.9%, 33 is 8.2% 34 is 11.48% 35 is 14.75% ) - so just an inch can make 3.3% difference - not enough to hurt possibly, but at the other end of the scale it can mess with the numbers. PS - using the odometer to determine "accuracy" / fuel consumption etc - especially when it has not been corrected for tyre size - is an act of "science denial". The only real way to assess fuel consumption is to drive a "verified distance" [have a favourite 400km - for example - test track with consistent conditions and traffic (science would say drive it many times in each configuration and calculate the stats. - driving once is just an anecdote.] and measure usage - not using the vehicle's trip computer or any inbuilt gizmo..

Very nice and, I think, thourough, explanation of tyre choices. As any farmer also would tell you, yes radials make for a far better footprint in the loose stuff, but lacks the durability of the diagonal tyre´s sidewalls. However, it is very noticeable on farm equipment that the build of the tyre makes high speed travels a lot bumpier. Do you notice this with car tires as well? It´s especially notiaceable if you leave a loaded trailer over night (quite often 12-14ply) overnight, the tyres will make a perfect impression of an egg the next day.
