Once again a very helpful video man. I really appreciate you. I have been researching forever and thought of going 275 but with this video I can finally dream of 285s. I have 3 follow up questions: 1- Are there major dis advanced of having SL rated tires over C rated for the Toyo Open Country AT3? 2- Given these tires are not much different in weight, did the Toyo 285 tires impact your fuel economy or performance? 3- I have a 20 TRD offroad 4runner. I am guessing I would need a mild lift. Do you think Bilstein 5100 or 6112 (about 1.75 or 1.9 inch) lift should be enough to clear these tires? Again I seriously appreciate your channel, it's really underrated. Liked and Subscribed!!

Thank you for you kind words. I would try to share my experience as much as possible when time available. As for your questions, IMO; 1) The disadvantage on SL rated tires are strength in offroad against punctures. To my experience C rated tires are a nice balance between onroad comfort and offroad peace of mind. This time I’m taking some risk with SL tires. Since I have a new kid I most likely be on gravel roads / easy trails. 2) I don’t notice mpg hit on these Toyo 285 SL tires. To me they feel like having stock 265s. For sure this all depends on driver, traffic situation, etc.. 3) Most important thing is push the fender liner as far as possible and fit the bottom 10mm bolts. Then cut the lower lip of the bumper to match the fender liner position. Use a heat gun and push the mud flap as much as possible. With that I think closer to 2in lift you should be able to fit 285s. Factory TRD ORP wheels are +15 offset vs TRD Pro wheels are +4 offset. You have better offset to fit 285s than me. So you should have better luck than me. Both 5100 & 6112 would be really nice. If you could go for little expensive shocks with adjusters the ride would be even better. I had Elka 2.5DC on my TRD ORP. The ride comfort offroad is next level. My TRD Pro shocks are pathetic compared to those.

@@LionRunner ok got it. I am a 90-10 driver (90% on road) here in Texas. high way comfort and driving through rough bumpy roads are priority for me. may be Bilsteins would be too rough for my needs? but then again its very affordable and I can get mild lift. given if I go 285 and have high centre of gravity having a good handle and less body roll might be a good bet too I am guessing.

Maybe increasing the sensitivity will increase reaction distance, to allow the system more time to apply the brakes?
@LionRunnerАй бұрын
In this case the driver was applying brakes as needed and in control. If the sensitivity was medium or higher I would expect the car would break way before and could potentially cause an accident as the people behind would have not expect the vehicle to apply breaks at full force too early.. I'm not sure, just thinking out loud.
@Kiss__KissАй бұрын
Wow.. The systems in my Audi S4 seem a little more sedate, than that. At the same time, as you mentioned, I can see why it may want to react in that manner, as it's higher off the ground, and weights a lot more than a sedan.

You mention in your video several times of how these LED bulbs achieve a "nice cutoff line" but please realize that the bulb has NOTHING to do with the cutoff. In a projector lamp, the sharp cutoff is the result of a shield inside that prevents light from reaching above the low beam. If you were to shine a flashlight inside the bulb hole, the sharp cutoff would still remain because of the shield. A reflector lamp on the other hand, would be a different story.

1) When I had 275/55R20 I see some scratches on the tire pretty close to the wheel. Now with 285/70R17 the scratches from curbs seems not even half of the tire. 17in combo seems to be perfect for drivers like my wife who don't see curbs. LoL. 2) When I had 20in wheels I didn't like seeing components like brakes through the wheel. I like how the 17in wheels hide them and put attention on bigger tires. 3) Around here we have some crazy potholes with out warning and I assume with more cushion with 285/70R17 tires I'm far from tire punctures / damage.

I could use some real world 4runner advice. My fam is considering nabbing one of these final 5th gens. Narrowed it down to the Offroad Premium, Offroad Premium with KDSS, or the TRDPro. Resale value is meaningful, though we do keep vehicles for the long term. Mostly on-road and light trail performance prioritized. No major offroading or modification intended at this time (perhaps mods in future), but we like to have serious get-out-of-a-jam capability just in case. How would you rate these three options? Show less
@LionRunner4 ай бұрын
Me personally won’t pick ORP with KDSS, one of the reason been reliability. I don’t want to deal with Toyota dealer only repair part then KDSS start to leak or have lean issues. I enjoy the JBL sound system in the TRD Pro (and Limited). Not bad for a Toyota. Also having remote start from phone was a big thing when we had the new born in winter time where I was able to start the car from the hospital / doctor office. Automatic head lights, dual zone climate control also nice to have. Non KDSS ORP is really value for money and you can pick aftermarket suspension way better than TRD Pro Fox. Wider 7.5x17 wheels on ORP are also a big value when you want to upgrade to bigger tires. The big reason my wife drive the Limited is because TRD 4wd selector is too hard to use. With Limited fulltime 4wd she can just drive like a AWD vehicle without thinking about anything. Our previous SR5 with 3rd row was crazy value for money and I could have added front and rear lockers, suspension, tires and make it more capable than a TRD Pro. So in summary every trim has a very valid reason to buy.

For cooling since the fan is not facing the dust cover I think there is better air circulation. The beam pattern is pretty close to stock cutoff line and to my eyes there’s no glare. For highbeams the best DRL I’ve purchased in Xenon Depot LED Pro with the provided DRL driver. The con is its not as bright as some thing like Auxito 9005 with fans. But those high power bulbs tend to show slight flickering in DRL mode. I could not find a bulb with fans that has a DRL module. I’ve even tried super expensive Morimoto 2strock 3.0 and they are still not clean as Xenon Depot LED Pro DRL.

Also TRD Pro have +4 offset 17x7 wheels vs SR5 have +15 offset 17x7 in wheels. Since it's +4, pushed more outward it has more chances of rubbing issues.
