    Dumped my 2021 SR5P stock wheels and stock Duelers for a set of Trd Pro wheels and Stock (265/70/17) Falken Wildpeak at3w.

    No lift (yet) but a huge difference on driving and handling!

    Thanks for the recommendation on the Falkens!

    Modest mods 2021 Silver SR5P:
    Oem emblem blackout
    Radio glass protector (get it!)
    Center console black neoprene cover
    Center console organizer
    Steering wheel black emblem
    26 piece rubber cup holder kit
    Trailer hitch cover (after fluid filmed)
    Remove stock wheels and tires replace with
    Black matte TRD Pro wheels 17”x 7”
    Falken Wildpeak AT3W 265/70/17

    considering carbon fiber interior over lays
    Small lift?
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you!

    Nice! I'm glad to see you got the Made in USA rather than the Made in China tires!

    I actually bought a set of the Matte Gray TRD wheels for my new '22 Barcelona Red ORP when it arrives.

    Fingers crossed my order gets accepted by Toyota next week during the first drawing!

    Looks good. Falkens are on my list when I get around to upgrading the tires.

    What motivated you to go with the Wildpeaks?

    Curious where you found the black steering wheel emblem? Been looking around to no avail.

    Only spot left was Ebay I just got it order now while you can so just type in Toyota 4Runner steering emblem they are not on Amazon. I Think Toyota is on the maker.

    Personally I would not endorse Taco Vinyl - after placing an order and them accepting payment, they came back 2 days later and wanted to charge me another $30 - when I declined & asked them to cancel, they kept a 10% cancelation fee for doing nothing - read thru their "Terms of Service" - it would make an Attorney think twice of ordering from them.....
    Just my 2cents

    Selling them on craigslist except sensors and lugs (were reused). They only had 250 miles when they were taken off. Left spare alone for now.

    that’s cool. I’m I’m not trying to promote any retailers, just figured I’d share that link seeing it was an easy $20 transaction for me. I actually noticed that 10% cancellation fee on returns, though thats very common for online auto supply & part retailers (it’s usually 15-20%).

    @OP I am so glad you posted this. I just got my pro wheels and have been struggling with KO2s or the Wildpeaks. I think I have my answer now. My other struggle was with 265s or 275s. I am going 265s due to the unknown of 275s rubbing on an all stock platform.

    I was on the fence with 265 or 275 Wildpeaks, and seeing I don’t want to do more than a 1” raise in the front, went with the 265’s and am glad I did. Fit so well that I’ve procrastinated with the raise (which I’ll do eventually).

    Yep. That looks darn good!!! I will hit up discount tire tomorrow as they have the cheapest price around and I get an additional 10% off.

    For the load rating did you do E or SL?

    Ive been struggling with the decision to get the Wildpeaks... Between the carping about their weight and potential to be made in China... Do you get a military discount?

    Great choice on the Pro rims. I love mine.

    When you get a chance could you post a picture of your neoprene console cover? That might be a good option for me. It didn't take long to make a permanent impression on my center console where I rest my bony elbow.

    The foam Toyota used to pad the console is pretty cheap.

    No, those are N-Fab RKR rail. Nice and flush and perfect for my needs.

    They’re not all made in China. Mine are made in the US. It will say right on the tire and I’m sure you could find out before purchasing. They’re great tires.

    The rain and snow handling compared to the stock Bridgestone Dueler which are dismal tires. I’m super happy now!
