Thanks, Jason… You or anyone else here had any experience with General Grabber At2’s or Cooper Zeon LTZ’s? Still reading reviews and shopping prices. Not sure if the extra inch or inch and a half with the 285’s as opposed to the 265’s is worth it…

Todd – They’re louder, and sometimes they rub against the truck when you turn the steering wheel to the full extents. Your odo and speedo will be off too, but only by a small amount (3%).

I am in the process of adding a 3″ Toytec lift kit to a 2005 Double Cab 4×4, still have the original 16″ steel wheels with 265/70R16 tires, but need new tires. Considering some 285/75/16 General Grabber AT 2’s. Also, the Bridgestone Duellers are an option. Anyone had any experience with running larger tires? Gas milage is not really an issue… Thanks…

Laurence – Yes. There’s only one option available for the Tundra: http://www.tundraheadquarters......ine-tuner/

Jason thanks. Has anyone tried any of the computer chip programmers to increase GPM?

Also the fact there Jason he’s using A/T tires. Using a street tire will get you better mpg’s.

Laurence – Yes, it is common to switch tires and see a significant drop in mileage. The issue isn’t the size increase, it’s the tread type. You might check tire pressures to see if they’re inflated enough.

I just replaced my original BFG tires (275-65-18) on my 2007 tundra 4×4 with BFG AT/KO (285-65-18). My gas milage went down by over 3MPG. Has anyone else had the same problem? I only went one size bigger. Do I have to reprogram anything to get the gas milage back up? Love the tires, but cant afford 13mpg. Thanks for any help.

Zach – 33’s will fit an 07-09 Tundra, but only with a front-end lift or leveling kit. I believe this is also true of the 2010, but I have heard that it might be easier to put 33’s on a 2010 without a leveling kit.

I have a 2008 tundra 4×4 and would like to put the BFG AT’s on it. I was reading that 33″ would fit on the stock rims and would not rub. I have no lift and don’t have any plans to install one until im out of warranty. Will this fit without any rub? What is the biggest tire I can put on it? Does anyone have these tires on now? How big a hit is it to your gas mileage? I tow a couple ATV’s and go off road about 5 times a year. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!
