    I bought a set of the Maxxis RAZR AT811s. Done almost 2000km over tarmac, rock and gravel - these tyres are brilliant. Yet to try in mud but I’m confident these will be good. Surprisingly quiet, grippy, improved ride and feel safe in the wet.

(BTW a standard 4x4 ute with 1000kg onboard drives like a slug, at 3000kg loaded - they are really not fun any more (unless you really enjoy queue's).

    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).

    Hey Ronny, another great video, I know its a late comment, but did a binge watch rerun of this, as first time I watched I was a little tipsy lol. Anyway, i'm an Aussie living in the USA have been watching for yonks. I have a Jeep (I Know!) you made some really great points on the tyres... Everything is a compromise. 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... Cheers Wes.

    I think what you are doing with this build is a cool idea. Something I wish I saw more in the overland/off reading community. Sensible builds. Gives those of us without the $$ right now some hope to get out and explore. Cautiously of course. Also, jealous of the Hilux look compared to the Tacoma in the States.

    'Nice combo Ronny, changes the look for the better. I was on a budget so I stuck with the 18's, and fitted BFG AT's in 265/65/18. No rubbing yet but it is very close. I nearly took the leap with Mickey T's in the Deacon range, as we have got awesome mileage out of them at work. But BFG's have never let me down, been on all my trucks since 1998 and still have plenty of confidence in them. The Maxxis look mean though mate, happy wheeling.

    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. Love your roll bar, that´s the sexiest part so far :)

    I can hear the difference between the highway and all terrain tires. The surprising bit is that, I think, from the change in the noise, that some of what you thought was wind noise was actually coming from the highway tires, because even though the noise level was slightly higher afterward, it was a much lower pitch, so some of the higher pitch noise from before was also not there afterward. I could be completely wrong of course, but that's what it sounds like to me in the video.

    I have been saving for a Hilux SR5 for 12 months. Currently driving a Toyota Corolla 😬. If In the next 12 months, I make as much progress with savings and investing as I have in the last 12 months - will be able to buy one brand new. Watching all of these videos so I know what I’m doing when I walk into the dealership.

    Hey Ronny, does Integrity tyres sell PCOR wheels or did you bring that in and pay them to fit it because I can't find any PCOR on their website
