First video of yours I’ve seen. I lifted my ‘16 2” but stayed with the 265 KO2s and experienced a loss in gas mileage. Combined I’m around 17. Great info! Those C rated 285s are the lightest LTs I’ve seen. Definitely considering them! Thanks!!

Excellent videos Cloe. Thanks very much. I’ve never owned one. But here at 61, I am about to get in my very own 2022 Tacoma Trail edition. Ordered it back in October 2021, and am expecting delivery of it in about two to three weeks, fingers crossed . I am sure I’ll be installing wing-mirror turn signals and the license plate glare reduction tabs. Excellent videos. Please keep up the good work. Thanks again.

I upgraded my 21' Taco TRD Off-Road 4x4 with a 20"x9" inch Fuel wheel with the 275x55x20 KO2's by BF Goodrich on a 3" Rough Country lift with the Vertex adjustable coil overs on the front & the Vertex adjustable shocks on the rear with the 2" lift heavy duty Old Man Emu leaf springs & I don't really hear an excessively loud road noise while driving. I installed the EVC Ultimate 9 throttle controller & I don't have any problem accelerating with the oversized tires especially when it set on U9. My gas mileage on the other hand is another thing, I get around 11mpg in the city & a combined of 14mpg as of the last tank of gas I used, but the look is amazing. I have done a lot of extra mods that I probably would not have thought of if it weren't for Chloe's channel. Thank you Chloe & keep up the good work.

I had 265/75/16 KO2s and loved them and went 285s on my first gen Tundra. Now that I have a new 2023 on order I'm convinced that 275/70/17 is the unspoken hero and a great middle of the road tire. 🤙🤙 Beautiful truck!

Girl you are killing it! I am so happy for you and your channel! Congrats!

I just put 285/70/17’s on my 2022 trd pro with the stock setup - (1.5” lift in front and .5” block in rear). Minor rubbing in full lock and reverse. I did some plastic trimming and obviously removed the mudflaps and so far so good. No cab mount chop needed.

Running 285 75 16 Yokohama Geolandars on a set of Volks & BP51 suspension. Fairly stock setup except some sliders. Regeared 4:56 Nitros to get some of the power back & it was a huge difference! Still needed a OV tune to smooth out the Trans. I have noticed in mine running good fuel makes a difference in MPG, if i can i run Sinclair but their few & far between. Its nice to see a young lady involved in 4Xs & offroading 😁

Man, nearly every time you put a video out I get reminded of how much I love that I stumbled across your channel.

Just started following your channel, thanks for all the extra info Chloe!

I have to just say this is my favorite video that I have seen of yours. Thanks so much for deciding to give us your thoughts on the 285. I had no clue about the whole pro total rebuild either, so thanks for the details there. I have a 2016 trd off road in silver like yours. Can I recommend RIPP SUPER CHARGER COIL PACK? I absolutely love the power it gave me with air intake mods.... Thanks again 👍👍4u!

Not C-Load rated but when I searched around the 2 lightest tires I found in the 285/75/16 size are the Bridgestone AT Revos and the Firestone Destination ATs . Both weigh in at 51lbs, the same as those C-Load BFGs.

One thing I looked at before I got my 285’s was the weight. I got a 285/70/17 ridge grappler in a Passenger load which is a 4ply Weighing 49lbs each vs a 10ply weighing much more. I strictly drive on road so I really only upgraded for looks.

@mattlewandowski73

2 жыл бұрын

I have not made the switch yet... I have however been talking to a couple people who did. (one drives a 2018 TRD OR (same model as mine) With no lift I am told they had very rare rubbing, but these are overlanders, not rock crawlers. gogoy, 2x4? I do not even know how much clearance you would have... I have not owned a 2 wheel drive in maybe 15 years now, and that was my first ford ranger. busted knuckles, my own plan for my 2018 is when the tires wear down, I am going non lifted with the 255s, if I have rubbing trouble I will be going OME myself (the old fashioned lift kit not that BP51 or whatever it is called) until I can afford fox shocks with deaver rear leafs. That would add 2 inches, which as I understand it would be plenty for an overland or light trail truck, but insufficient for something meant to do twisty trails. From my research into it, 3" is probably the ideal case, but the lift kits get a LOT more pricy at that mark. The OME lift kit was my plan before I even had the trick in my driveway, then Chloe got me lusting after that fox suspension :) (I have to admit, the Fox IS a better suspension (in both function and appearance) than the OME, but comes at around 3+ times the price). But with closing down my business during covid and everything else the budget is not looking forward to replacing 5 tires, AND doing a lift, so I am now looking at doing it in stages. Still as I said above. The skinnies are said by several driving them to be good with no lift unless you push the flexing too far. They will give you just shy of 1.5" actual ground clearance increase. With no lift they will still tub when under compression, especially if turning, but not as badly as wider tires do. The 285/75r16 are 32.8" and 11.2" wide while the 285/75r17 are 33.8. The 255/85/16 sit between the two at 33.1 (with some brands measuring in at 33.4) they are also approximately 10" wide and run on stock wheels, though those method wheels Chloe got with their bead grip technology are GREAT, they are not my aesthetic choice, but have functional advantages. Still hard on the budget at $300+ each (not as bad as some wheels I have looked at... Have you priced Hutchenson DOT approved beadlocks lately??? ) Size wise, the 285 are better in loose sand because they have better flotation, while the 255s are better in snow as they dig down better. In mud, the narrower tires are a mixed bag depending on the trail conditions. If it is mud on a firm bottom, the 255 has the advantage, but if it is mud that has been churned deep they will not help you at all. On rock, it is mixed, but the wider tires will often help due to larger contact patch, but I have seen more wide tires die to side wall damage than I have seen skinnies. The 255s also win in fuel economy as they have 10" less width and a smaller contact patch. This can also be detrimental when stopping on wet roads. Since my useage profile is daily driver, overlander, and mild trail rider, they make sense for me. oh and you won't get a ticket for your tires sticking out too far unlike some 285s I have seen :D

@@mattlewandowski73 I too am going with the original OME lift, the BP-51 looks nice but I would do Fox/deaver if I wanted to spend that much. I do off-road my truck but it’s not often and it’s usually pretty slow and steady as I don’t want to tear up a brand new rig. I was looking into the 255’s primarily for the run that 285s have. I’m still unsure if I need the full 33 and might just go with a nice set of 265/75/16. The last overland trip I went on I was completely stock and my friends 19 TRD was stock except BFG all terrains in 265/75 and both of us had no real issues following friends that had 3-4” lifts and 33-35” tires on their jeeps. The biggest issue was clearance and break over on the steep trails, but with some spotting and good lines it was all doable. For being stock and completing the trail loop we did at AOAA I was sold that a 2” lift with even a 32”ish tire would make the Tacoma twice as good off-road.

Chloe, awesome video. I am curious, with only lifting the front end, did the suspension settle enough to where the trucks level is even? Or did you have to make some adjustments?

Love the stance Chloe!! Looks great!

Hey Chole awesome video. I have the same Silver Sky Metallic TRD OR as you with the 4Runner rims. My question is did you also get the bigger spare tire or is it still the stock spare. I’m thinking of getting Method wheels for my truck so thanks for the video. I have the Fox 2.5 shocks so I’m hoping to not have to cut or do a CMC.

I have the exact same tires on my 2019 Tacoma. I didn't remove the black plastic piece that is under the front bumper, so occasionally the tires will rub when I have the wheels cranked and am hitting a bump at the same time. Otherwise I like these tires and agree with your assessment regarding gas mileage etc.

A retune can help with the power loss, primarily as it will remap your shift points. Regearing IS appropriate to the nearly 10% increase in diameter that going from factory to 33" gives you, but it is not "cheap". Additionally the larger tires have a noticeable effect on articulation (particularly up front) where 285's are known to produce noticeable rubbing (mostly during steering under compression) even on moderately lifted (1-2") vehicles, do to the combination of larger diameter and wider stance.

I normally recommend skipping the retune right away and just re-gearing. I did just a tune on my wrangler and all it caused was more issues. Put less pressure on the driveline and re gear. do it once, Do it right. then if you feel like you want a tune after do it. Keep in mind though I was going from a 31 to a 315/75r16 (34.6 In)

Hey Chloe! I am unsure if this has been answered before but I wanted to ask if you might consider tuning your truck. I've been on the fence of tuning my truck due to California requirements for smog. Most folks claim they will pass emissions but my truck hasn't exceed 6k miles yet. Great content!

Just got my 22 Tacoma TRD Pro and thinking about changing the tires to BFG K02 but sticking to the stock set up of 265/70/16. I don't want to go 285 because that would mean lift the truck further, change the gearing and tune to accommodate 285? What do you think about just switching up wranglers to BFG at 265, is that worth the switch?

Nice info. Thanks for sharing.

I'm about to take delivery of a 2023 TRD Pro & was wondering if those 17" 285's will bolt on with no rub or fitment issues. The TRD Pro is supposed to come from the factory with a 1.5" lift in front & about half of that on the rear. I welcome your thoughts and any comments about such a wheel/tire upgrade.

I have 285’s as well , thinking of putting mud flaps on mine what’s your opinion? Do the tires rub on turns?

Were you able to fit a full sized spare? I recently got some 275/70/17’s and trying to figure out if it’ll fit… also whether I get a matching wheel or some cheepie on the spare 🤔

I have 275/70R17 Falken Wildpeak tires on my 2022 Lexus GX460 with a 2.5" suspension lift. They are a bit louder than the stock tires, especially on the highway, but not annoyingly so. I think the Lexus has better sound deadening than the Tacoma though. I get a tiny bit of rubbing at full lock only under compression or in reverse, I think it is coming from a bolt head for the mud flaps. I have about 10k on them now and I do actually take it off road occasionally and so far I'm really happy with them. Thinking of going with a 265/70R17 on my son's Tacoma so thanks for posting this.

What would be really cool is if both trucks have crawl control is to compare the traction on the same obstacle with the same tire pressure and see what happens... And then after that put the bigger tires at the load inflation table recommended pressure and do the comparison to the smaller tires at the door jamb pressure. I actually really want to do this test with my Jeep since I have select speed which is the same thing as crawl control.

My speedo is about 3 mph off so I'm actually going 3 mph faster than displayed speed. That part I have figured out but the mpgs not so much. I feel I'm getting better mileage but haven't yet did the pump fill up math. I'm more interested on how the stock running mpg calculator is gathering it's data. Like, where is it located and how does it work. Great videos Chloe, very inspirational young lady.

If they suit you and they perform where you live that's awesome 👍 but personally, I wouldn't want to go wider than stock, not where I live with the terrain we have and especially not with the lil power that I have... I did go one inch taller though.

285 do not fit from what ive read before(without modification). You have to take a big hammer and bend the metal retainers out some and I think some possible issues with being to close to the exhaust.

Can you fit a spare tire of the same size in the spare tire spot under the truck?

Chloe, You might consider an OV Tune for your Taco (or both of them). Had my Taco tuned in May of 2021, world of difference. They can also adjust the tune for tire size and gearing if you do that. Not only are you dealing with more mass to get going, you also have to consider the effects on your brakes. I upgraded to PowerStop pads and rotors.

Also, I didn't know Method had that bead 'locking' tech. To be clear, that's a stock TRD Pro suspension with a preload collar alone + zero offset wheels?? I'll look back through your vids for other suspension upgrades on this truck just in case. Thanks so much for giving a clear, articulate rundown on all this stuff - that's the ivy coming out. ;)

Do you run a tune on your truck if so what is it or do you recommend it thank you?

Very useful. Thanks

Love this look! But how in the world are you getting 22 MPG combined before? I have an 2021 SR5 Trail Edition, with less aggressive tires, and the wind splitter up front, and I drive it like a grandpa, and I can barely pull off 18 to 19 MPG average.

This question is off topic for tires, its about you rebuilding the vehicle. Where you able to find and buy factory painted fenders? or did you have to have the fenders paint matched, and how did the paint turn out. Any recommendation on getting new fenders, ie: supply source or tips on paint.

How did you fix your transmission? I had transmission problems on my tacoma and the dealer acted dumb so I had to buy a new tacoma.

Hi Chloe! If u feel less power or worse mpgs with bigger tires try KDMaxPro tune. It's amazing!!!!!

Just looking at the video and it looks to like your lower control arm bushing on the front right side is missing or damaged.

That’s pretty good MPG with 285’s. I average 20 MPG on my stock 22’ Tacoma TRD Pro.

What kind and size lift did you go with?
