Yeah. The 295s are only 1.3lb more. I wish the 285s came in C load.

Theoretical question. I have a hybrid. When I floor it all the way, while the power is excellent, I can tell the ECU is “cutting power” and I don’t really feel the full 465lb feet of torque. I think this is largely traction control—as it feels the tires slip, it limits output. So, my theory...

37s? Hot damn. How does the truck handle them?

Both trucks look excellent. What it looks like to me is the tread pattern lines up with the outer edge of the fender flare and that the angled part that forms the sidewall is poking - maybe an inch max - looks good for me. I’m trending toward 285/70/18 KO3s

That’s actually not that dumb - I’d check the shock mount housing at the top of the shock / shock hat

lol - exactly - for me it’s the nerdy aspect and it’s fun to know how your truck works

Correct - and why would we mess with Toyota’s engine settings anyway? I’m sure the engineers didn’t forget about turbo cooling on the hybrid—we just don’t know how it works. I’ll ask car care nut

Wheel / tire info pls

I see - yeah the flap is hiding about an inch? It looks good though and any fling should get caught by the new flaps - are you experiencing rock chips up in front of the rear fender / on the rear fender

I think I’ll copy the ARK flaps - how are they doing? Are they flexible enough to fully bend over terrain without tearing them out ?

Dude that’s excellent - how is the poke so modest ? Those tires are almost 12” wide. I was hoping for exactly that level of flush

People here want to have fun and be positive as opposed to just trolling and ripping into people who ask honest questions. We have an unwritten “no jerk” policy.

Welcome! This is a much friendlier place than TW ?

My big curiosity is whether toyota is cutting corners and betting people won’t need a transmission longer than 150K miles or toyota is smart and knows what they are doing — or if the temps don’t actually get very high for most people

Sure but the 3G pro he was with never overheated or had to go into 4L..

Anyone have a recommendation for a simple to install OBD port transmission temp reader or blue tooth + app type of thing? Related question. I keep seeing that the Tacoma transmission temps run high (see TFL toaster test) and yet the truck doesn’t throw codes and is meant to run high. Does...

So the transmission oil is not cooled at all via the radiator?

When in eco mode, AC runs at only about 40% — check if you’re in eco

Sir. might you have front shot showing the amount of poke off the fender flare

Could I trouble you to show us the level of tire poke with these 295s on stock TH wheels ?
