The scion Gets New Wheels… This Made A Huge Difference

Hey Andy, checking in from Kingston Springs, TN. The wheels look great.

[@dantheman9395]

Those look great! And a killer price

[@user-ne5ck4tk5c]

Thanks for this tires look awesome! I have a scion xb 2006, and live in a city with crazy pot holes, your tires look steardy and wider. What are the dimensions for the tires and wheels?

[@fredplow9448]

Yeah your wheels and tires look very good on their does septa vehicle off nice I did notice one thing in your video. Seems the guys at the store you deal with have a little bit of a problem there I noticed that the Marquis on the tire that yellow that was not at the valve stem which is where when I went to school for tires they told me that yellow. Is the lineup with the valve stem. Question you think maybe if they put the yellow. Where it's supposed to be you wouldn't need all those weights that is the balance Mark for the tire when it's on the wheel! Good luck.

Looks good!! 👍

Thank you

Discount tire down the road 4 miles from me, busy place. Smart move getting that fuel efficient rig, gas is only going to get more expensive, fuel efficient value will increase, gas guzzlers will decrease. I'm looking to get a Rav 4 hybrid base model to mod with lift, tires, roof rack etc. molle panel to hang some some goodies on, and I'm not talking Twinkies.........

[@gearrunner]

That sounds like that will be a sweet Rav 4

[@lilklondikeoutdoors4116]

Looks good sir

[@gearrunner]

Thank you

[@edgarvelasco7130]

I drive one of these XB's and I fully agree with you - great on gas, peppy 2.4 engine, CAVERNOUS cargo space! I don't give a damn what people think (if they think anything at all about it). The Xb is a fantastic used car buy.

[@thomasgriffin3474]

Now to just touch up paint parts of the suv and compound and polish and wax it and it will look good!

[@gearrunner]

Yep, I will probably wait till it warms up a little it’s supposed to snow Saturday. This weather is crazy

[@roadeomagic]

Andy, I think that's great. I will check to see if there's a discount tire store near me in Pennsylvania. But I do have one question, do you ever check the "born on" dates on the tires? I always do, you can never be too careful, safe travels buddy.

[@gearrunner]

I do check them, the good part about these tires is they just came out to replace the ones that wet on the vehicle so they can’t be more than like a year old

[@christopherrice1375]

Be safe in that thing. Not much metal around you for protection.

[@gearrunner]

I’ve thought about that. The doors feel pretty light

[@anunpopularstance]

Metal doesn't equal more protection. Steel doesn't crumble like other materials hence you absorb all the impact instead of the car. Your thinking is based on misunderstood physics.

[@normaninsandiego7061]

I like those wheels.

[@gearrunner]

Thank you

[@BOLLING71]

What size wheels and tires?

[@gearrunner]

Same as factory

[@BOLLING71]

@@gearrunner stock suspension? They look like they fill the wheel wells out better

[@anunpopularstance]

They put the new tires on the front? That's a serious liability no-no for any tire shop. New tires should always be installed on the rear.

[@gearrunner]

Why when it’s a front wheel drive?

[@anunpopularstance]

@@gearrunner drive type is irrelevant. When cornering in wet conditions you are more likely to have the back end oversteer if you put new tires on the front only. Most discount tire shops even have a diagram explaining why this occurs somewhere in their shop. I know it seems counterintuitive with a fwd vehicle but the physics don't change.

[@gearrunner]

@@anunpopularstance anytime I’ve had an accident in wet conditions in a front wheel drive the front has slid out on me

[@nichols648]

Does it really save you any money because you have extra insurance cost extra maintenance on two vehicles instead of one

[@mion1981]

Hey Gear Runner! Please give me some advice on this. I am stuck if I should trade or sell my Tundra TRD PRO Lunar Rock for a Tacoma TRD Off Road because of the gas prices are going up due to the whole Ukraine war situation. Should I do this or not? Do you think gas prices will be like more than 5 dollars later on?

[@gearrunner]

I have to say I don’t think it’s because of the war, I think it’s because we aren’t drilling here as much as we did a couple years ago. As far as the Tacoma, it will probably only get 3 mpg more of so so I’m not sure about that. I think if the Tacoma was what I was looking at I would keep the Tundra.

[@mion1981]

@@gearrunner Yeah, I really don't want to give up my Tundra because the V8 is so sweet and the space it has is awesome. Is the 2021 Tundra more reliable than the 2022 Tacoma?

[@gearrunner]

@@mion1981 I would say it would be a toss up for reliability they will both last a very long time

Hey boy, you spend more time in Johnson City than Johnson did LOL. Check out the Wheels and the Tires. When you have THAT much weight sometimes it's a sign of a Bad combination... Just sayin'...
