TRD Sport with 265/70/R18 Falken WildPeak AT4Ws on ICON Alloys Rebounds (no lift)

I really like the +25 offset. Are you noticing any scratch marks on fenders from tire fling since the wheels protrude beyond fender flairs?

Been on pavement only since the install so nothing to fling up. I'll update if I notice it starting to happen.

So after a couple hundred miles, the rougher ride has gone away. The tires were very tacky at first and I think they just needed to break in a bit. MPG has dropped to 18.8 (from 21), but I think that will go up I've been doing less highway driving. So I would imagine long term MPG drop will be minimal, maybe 2 MPG max.

Very nice man. I’m not a big fan of the poke look and also struggled with wheel choice. I do 99% street driving with the occasional forest service road so I wanted to stay with 265s for MPGs and ride quality. I started with Wildpeaks but after 10k miles started getting a weird vibration and had a hard time balancing the wildpeaks. Ended up getting a set of the BFG trail terrains take offs from a TRD OR and these tires are amazing. They’re super light and smooth.

Very nice! Here's mine. Came with the TRD wheels.

Looks great. Underground was my second color choice. I believe those TRD wheels are a +45 so only 20mm tucked further in than mine. I think it's a good modest sized tire for a daily driver. My MPG kinda hangs around 18.5.

I just ordered these wheels and some Toyo open country at3 in the same size as you. Just waiting for everything to arrive. I was going to with wildpeaks since I had them on my last tacoma, but went with the toyo since they are like 7lbs lighter per tire.

I switched out the Goodyear Territory RT's on the trailhunter after nearly 2k miles. I found them lacking grip while off road and felt slippery in wet conditions. I believe the ones that come with the truck may not have as deep a tread as if you purchased them new I could be wrong. I went with the Wildpeak AT4's (SL version same size 265/70 18) No balancing issues. They have been great. Quiet on road and lots of grip on loose rock when off road. Found them very good this past New England winter. Handled deep snow and ice without any issues. My wife has the Toyo open country AT3's on her Gladiator and those are a great tire as well. I find the drive similar. My personal opinion I found the Wildpeak AT4's to look a little more aggressive and have more confidence with the sidewalls when airing down.
