$800 Off-Road Tires vs. $1500 Off-Road Tires 

I like hi trucks tires more, but everything else I think lo truck is better. It honestly looks way better and the wheels were literally 1/4 of the price

In the last series...the "low" options included some really cheap chintzy stuff. I love this truck series and the low products are still solid.

I like the toys that hi-truck gets, but you are 100% right, working on a budget is more in the spirit of off-roading.

@@Magucci13 lll my

Haha same. My truck is the 05 Sierra 1/2 ton equivalent of low truck. 1" lift/level, RC shocks,Tyger Automotive amazon flares, Aries bull bar, Amazon 20" light bar, 6 high mod (when I turn on my brights my fog lights, high and low beams come on all together) reverse camera, better than aftermarket brake pads, soon I'm going from 265 70 17s to 285 70 17s. Anyone have tire suggestions?

2 options: tie it down or make it amphibious

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of this.

Not just that, when they start to have mileage cheap tires tend to cup quite a bit and sometimes are impossible to balance

Agreed 💯

​@@evadvalcourt those Kenda tires aren't low quality, Kenda is a value brand but they've been around for a long time making car, motorcycle, and ATV tires, they're just new to the truck tire game, but Kenda is designing their truck tire line out of their facility in Ohio.

​@Semaj Niffirg also bicycle tires, anyone who needs cheaper tires I always recomend kendas at my shop as the offer decent performance at a much lower price

@@evadvalcourtidk I’ve seen 2500 dollar bfgs cup as well as coopers. Both on brand new trucks. I wasn’t open to trying different brands until you have to replace MTs every 20-30k miles. I’ve tried a few “off brands” and so far have had success with them.

Good job

"Let 'er eat!"

Exactly, the more money doesn’t always mean the best. I really like the price of those low team tires, especially after a lift kit…

@@ClaytonNeuner I don't know about saying that more money doesn't mean a better product. It would be better to say that at a point, it isn't worth the difference

As much as I agree from the perspective of this video that the 3x pricier setup on hi truck isn't performing at a major advantage. It doesn't showcase the factor of how well will the high truck's parts last. How many miles will the tires get on them, how long will the suspension perform at top-notch, and will the Beadlock wheels eventually take an impact that cracks them beyond repair?

Not really a Chris fix reference. A lot of people say this lol

If they had tested the Milestar Patagonias they would have slayed most tires they tested at their low price point hehe they are absolutely silent and the traction is almost unbelievable. Nittos are fantastic though and worth that cost for how long they last

Same do miss the z's tho:(

@@errhka I agree they should have tested mud terrains. I would never spend that much on all terrains but I do plenty of offroading to justify buying MTs for my daily.

Todd, EXACTLY, put some miles on them & see how they change.

100% correct. When I bought my KM3s I was like wow these are pretty quiet. 2 months later it sounded like my truck was a bee hive lmao

Spot on. One thing they only briefly touched on was the grippiness of HT. Just like race tires, grippier means it wears out quicker, *but* offers a way smoother experience off-roading, tighter control and is less likely to chunk out. And someone who two-tracks regularly would probably have a Hi set and a Lo set. Sidenote, I love LT's steelies. Reminds me of those classic American Racing black steelies from the 90s ( back when chrome was king and those were the *only* black wheel option... Oh how the turns table).

Mans spittin' serious facts

@Gareth Tucker for off-roading it’s easier to use driver and passenger though. In the US you would be hard pressed to find an off-road rig that is right hand drive so driver and passenger is the easier method. Not discounting the way you have experience in, but for what they’re doing it’s easier to use driver and passenger commands instead

@Gareth Tucker it’s truly up to the individual. In the US specifically we primarily use driver/passenger since virtually every vehicle that is on the road in the US has the driver on the same side. I don’t have enough experience in other countries but we use it that way even on single seaters since so many people have it hardwired that driver is always to the left and passenger to the right. Not to mention there is very little confusion since you’re working with terms that cannot be mixed up. Saying left hand down could confuse a driver on whether you mean their left or your left. While not highly likely, I have seen it happen. It’s the same reason that the machinery I work on doesn’t use left or right. We say operator or non operator since that removes any possible confusion with our service department

@@SuperTheast Learned in the military and we were not allowed to talk when spotting, only hand signals was accepted. If you had to explain something you stopped the driver and walked over to talk to him before going back to spotting. Trying to talk people through an obstacle is kind of a loosing prospect if the surroundings are noisy, and sitting in a truck like these doesn't make it easier. So establish a set of hand signals and stop yelling... Now driving with a spotter can be stressful as you have to ignore what *YOU THE DRIVER* feel would be needed and only do exactly what the spotter is signaling you no matter how much you feel you know better.

@@blahorgaslisk7763 if I’m backing someone up with a trailer I definitely use hand signals. I do mostly trail crawling so it’s quiet enough that just talking does the trick. It’s definitely up to the individuals that are navigating the obstacles though. I’ve seen people do hand signals only and others that mixed them in. I’m not trying to say one way is better than the rest since there is no perfect way

The words you were looking for were port and starboard

It’s the material they are made out of that reflects the cost bruh

@@smolscale If price was only determined by quality this wouldn't be a series. Sure better rubber costs more to a certain extent but marketing and branding definitely effect it equally as much like with any other product. Just look at the prices of Continental vs General tires

@@smolscale yeah but just because they are made out of a more expensive material doesn't make them better "bruh"

Arron, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

cough KO2 cough. wildpeak gang

Bouncing is probably caused by the suspensions, not tyre pressure (they talked about this at the end of s3:e1), because they were all running 15 psi iirc

Can’t beat that price tho

@@cahsahhhhhhhn Craigslist can :)

Or steal them

Lol, my 50 dollar mudtires did awesome. Being on a 2000lb sidekick helps, that thing is already an atv basically

Me: Last years worn out all seasons.

It’s different with trucks tbh everything is more expensive cause parts are beefier and stronger then on cars so a lot of companies don’t even try to make aftermarket parts for trucks

If they used a heavier truck, the "low" tire would be a lot more expensive bc you can throw anything on a Tacoma.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wI8XOHSSwFc.html

If they would have skipped the plasti-dip and body kit Locar would have been a nice ride (after they swapped out the ebay coilovers).

Trucks are more modular than cars

But then you're abusing the front diffs. Imho weld the rear and drive it in rwd, you can do 90% of obstacles and keep the wear on the weaker front ends down .

Was just about to say the same thing

Exactly my thoughts

Don't gotta be an off-road bro to know who was right. It's just common sense. Same thing works in snow.

I run the dunes basically weekly, (10 minutes away). I air down to 6 lbs with my Toyo open country at's. Rarely even have to use 4 wheel drive. I took off my BFG's to try the toyo's and will never go back.

Did they try airing down the stock tires?

@@ADBATT52 these two guys are a joke, they don't have a clue about wheeling.

So lighting chlorinated brake clean... will kill you.... this of course was likely not chlorinated as it is illegal to sell in most locations...

@@mattlane2282 you can actually buy chlorinated brake Kleen of the shelf at O'Reilly's, but the chlorinated stuff is like $8 a bottle, while the same size bottle of name brand non-chlorinated goes for like $2.50, and store brand goes for like $1.50 a bottle. The non chlorinated stuff burns a lot better, and the chlorinated stuff cleans slightly better (they use it to clean instrument panels on oil rigs here that get splattered with crude) also if you want to buy more than 1-2 bottles of chlorinated brake kleen you have to have a commercial account and/or a certificate/license.

@@Prestiged_peck In your state maybe... banned for sale in mine... but you kinda make my point... if you burn that shit it turns into I think phosgen... that will kill you...

Realized this when hi-team doubted lower tire pressure would make a difference... or maybe they were staying in character because it's literally the cheapest "mod" there is.

@@ajc1080 Right?? that’s like off-roading 101 😂

@@bmax98 Yea if I'm off pavement I dump air imediately down to 18psi then just stay in 2wd until I start spinning tires (unless intentional :-D). Not only does it give you better traction but if you have not so nice suspension it makes things more comfortable too. Edit: Sand gets 4x4 imediately and even lower psi

Ye ikr underrated

Definitely 😂

If I had to pay 100 bucks for a tire change I'd seriously consider doing it my self and just pay for the balancing. In Europe I get my 18* tires changed for the equivalent 25 USD.

How did I not pick that up is beyond me.

mee too! 😂 😍

I'm pretty sure it's more of a Brad Leone reference

He also chose nittos at an insane price for psuedo 33's. I just bought 34's this week and while looking for a friend without a CMC I saw those in stock online for 289 in that size.

I thought rule №1 was 'let someone know where you are going and when to expect you back.'

Not rule #1 but I agree and was thinking the same thing. I’m usually at 10psi for general offroading and 8psi for the rocks and sand. Also not on beadlocks just $60 steelies

Crazy that they were surprised airing down would help

Couldn't agree more, the Nitto's will out-perform the cheap knockoffs in every scientific test, but this was an entertainment test and absolutely fantastic. 💯

I would have welded on some DIY bead locks from ballistic fab

💯

Depends on the rubber softness. For All terrains they will last years regardless. Expensive tires are softer for better grip

@@jeffmayo6002 guaranteed Nitto will outlast the kenda

I mean yes, they may last 10% longer, but they’re twice as expensive. It just isn’t worth it. Hell most off brand AT tires have a 40-50k mile warranty these days too

The nitto will not only last longer, but they'll have a milage warranty to back it up. And they'll wear significantly better.

Negative. The speed of a tire wearing down mostly depends on the rubber compound. The softer the compound the quicker it wears off.

What would you rate those tires you have out of 10. I’m seriously considering buying them for my sierra.

@@traviswarmanen9414 They are on par with the BFG KO2's. Probably rate them an 8/10. I would buy them again, especially when looking at cost to performance.

@@bg5561742 Still running the same set on my Excursion. Did you check the manufacturing date when you got them? I know places selling old tires has been an issue across the industry.

I’m sure it’s been considered but Aaron is now in formula drift (if you didn’t already know)so I’m sure that would take priority over donut for him. I suspect this season was put off till Aaron was free to come film.

yess please

I agree. I had the chance to meet with Aaron a few times at drift events. He’s super humble and very knowledgeable. We all had a good laugh whn his lower control arm was making spaghetti out of the inner barrel of his wheel out at Sonoma

That area has a pretty wicked Boulder climb course. You can kinda see it in their hill climb section of this video, it's off to the left of where they were going up at. There are basicly a bunch of progressivly harder hill climbs up that hill.

Like every OR was screamin at the monitor. WHAT THE EVER LOVIN TRUCK are you talking about?

At 3:30 he explained the purpose of the wheel ring clamping on the tire was to "uh get through a lot more stuff". What more were you expecting in the video lol

🤘🏾thanks homie. I love taking on new challenges. We'll see if we can come up with something dope

I've been having the same thought! Love these guys to death but this is painful to watch lol

That’s what I was thinking. They could be using $50/ea steelies from summit racing, a $300 eBay lift, and some federal tires. These tests are also pretty bad. They don’t show the true difference between high and low products. You buy good tires for traction, but also puncture protection, lifetime, sidewall strength, warranties, wear patterns, etc. But they didn’t do any high speed traction test. And those Icons shine in speed over desert terrain, not slow crawling

I prefer that for low truck. The last season they constantly used the cheapest crappiest thing they could find. Which yeah it worked but in a lot of cases they were just cheap bad quality garbage. Id rather see something thats cheaper, but still a quality product.

@@mikerossi7634 I agree with the puncture protection. I run BFG K02 tires and over 20 years in the desert I have never had a flat. I rock crawl some but a lot of high speed desert fun so I am sold on K02 tires.

I wouldn’t be taking any Steelers down to 12 Psi I smashed a tyre off the bead at 18psi on steelies was a shit of a time

@@karlschwaber7006 yep BFG KO2s are solid and worth it! I switched over to Falken Wildpeaks a few years and haven't had a single issue either. I ran them for a while on a 2004 Suburban and that thing RIPPED forest roads, now I have them on my 3rd gen Tacoma TRD OR. Back in February I bought 4x 265/75r16 for $720 out the door for the non-LT version. Best deal in high quality ATs in my opinion.

I’ve been riding and loving kenda’s mountain bike tires for years and only just learned they made stuff for trucks.

Ive had my Kenda Klever RT's for a year now...absolutely love em.
