Right now I’m running 285s, but once these wear down I definitely want to go a little bit taller so I’ll actually go with 255/80s to get a true 33. Yes, they won’t have the same width as a 295, being 1.6 inches narrower, but it’s less strain on the drivetrain, on the steering components, less weight, so slightly better gas mileage. The additional benefit is that in an AT3 It gives better performance in snow.

Excellent video man. Would I have to regear with a V8? I have an 08 sport 4x4 on stock wheel and tire size. Also did you replace the roof rack? The sport editions usually come with like a tubular roof rack and that looks like one on the SR5.

@Garrett_Logan

Thanks! Honestly I’m not 100% sure. It depends on what you plan on doing to your truck. If you want to go with 295’s and that’s it then I would say no, I think you might even be okay adding a metal bumper on top of the 295’s, however a lot of guys that run those size tires and add front and rear bumpers end up regearing anyway. My v6 does okay with 295’s and a bumper but I can tell that a regear would definitely help and make a difference because my pedal feels kinda mushy. Obviously if you have a v8 then those issues wouldn’t be as bad because you’d have the low end torque
