2024 Tacoma TRD Offroad, non-hybrid, 5.5 bed, silver
I traded a 2024 Tundra SR5 with Trd Sport package for my current '24 Tacoma TRD Offroad. The Tundra has 20" rim, (I think) 265/60 tires, which makes a total diameter of about 32.5", while the Taco has 265/70/17, which is 31.6". I forgot what tires the Tundra has but definitely for highway. The Tundra has the blue and red Bilstein, but obviously tuned differently than the Offroad. My point is the Tundra drove like an ultra luxury SUV, it goes over pot holes and manhole pits like cloud, it was the most comfortable ride since the LX570. The Taco has just a little smaller tire, but more rubber, but rides much stiffer (and I even aired down). Do you think if I change the Trd Offroad shocks to the TRD Sport Tacoma's Bilstein, the ride will improve? Or do you think the street tire make that much of a difference?

Everything I've read says the TRD sport is the "harshest" of all models over bumpers etc. They have a different spring rate and tunes suspension for on-road handling. Eibach makes a fairly affordable kit that supposedly rides pretty plush. Someone else could chime in on their experiences. My SR5 rode like a sedan before I put 5100s on it. Go take a sport for a test spin
