Hey man nice pick I love my Yokohama Geolanders! They work well in many conditions, high mileage warranty, and not as much road noise many competitors :)
Just bought 315 70 R18s for my 2023 Tundra SR5. I have a Rough Country 1.75” in the fron and 1” Cornfed spacer in the rear. I currently have 275 70 R18 Cooper AT3 XLTs and have so much more room. Get them installed next week.
Awesome tires! I just got a set for my FJ. It’s great watching this video from a year ago and seeing your current setup lol. Enjoy! (Greetings from BRLA)
I just put a set of Yokohama Geolandar X-ATs on my Tundra, I really like them. For an AT tire, they have pretty aggressive tread and the price is right. I've put about 1,000 miles on them and even after a lift and going from stock size tires to 34s, fuel economy hasn't changed.
@@mikecopros79 I have X-AT's on my Lexus GX470 - 265/70r17 and road noice is not bad at all.I did take a hit on mpg. But they look great and do well offroad as well as on wet roads.
Long term update on the X-ATs, worst tires I ever had. After 20,000 miles, they needed replaced. I sold my 2015 Tundra and just bought a new Tundra and put a set of Toyo's on it, much better tires.
The best hybrid tires I have found are Nitto Ridge Grappler. They are super quiet for an aggressive tire. I slightly more aggressive tire is the Toyo R/T.
Best AT tire in my opinion, are TOYO AT3s, I’ve had falken wild peaks, KO2s, Geolanders, and Nitto, but have fun Toyos to be the best balanced in having a bit of everything and working well or being superior in some conditions than the above brands.
Geolander mt are some of the best looking mud tires out there. I prefer a quiet ride so its all terrains for me but if i put on a mud tire it would be these
Why I just got the geolander A/t for my pathfinder didn’t need something to aggressive wouldn’t wanna take that tank off road to far anyways what the jeeps for
Them are some sexy treads and them sidewalls. I just ordered the standard geolander A/T for my pathfinder wanted something good in snow. And something not too aggressive. If I need that I’ll drive the Jeep lol
I see you're in Baton Rouge, I'm from that area but currently living in North Texas. Congratulations on your new Tundra purchase, the new tires look great!
You usually dont buy Mud Tires for every day use truck and weekend offroad. You buy so called Hybrid Tires. They are mix between Mud and All Terrain tires. Nitto Ridge Grapplers, BF Goodrich KO2 etc ... two examples of Hybrid Tires. Hybrid Tires perform just like mud tires in offroad conditions but they have little bit softer compound for every day use. Comes icy conditions and you will be driving on 4 snowboars with those Mud Tires.
if the outside diameter is change for a bigger size,your odometer and mileage will appear worse than it really is,i went from stock 29" tires to 33 plus the weight of the suspension lift kit and all other accessories,and it will impact your mileage.
Tires look awesome, and no doubt they will be great off road. Everyone viewing this keep in mind that E load rated tires have some serious downsides when fitted to half ton pickups (which don't need E load rating). Most of all would be the weight of the tires. Those Yokohamas are 60 lbs. each. Regular P rated tires in that size would be around 45 lbs. each. A big difference. Those 15 lbs. per tire is where the mpg went. Also E rated tires are meant to be run at a higher PSI, around 60-70, much too high for a half ton but required for a heavy duty pickup. Problem is finding P rated truck tires in that size. Most are E rated.
E rated tires are more puncture resistant off road. You run the same psi as your door jam recommends and it rides better. You adjust the psi to the weight of the truck. About 35-40psi will be good for highway on a half ton. Offroad in rocks I air down to 22-25 psi
I have to admit…those are very sharp tires and rims on this truck. I get a kick out of watching you learn how to 4 wheel…..just don’t wreck the truck in the process….that would not be good☹️. I will be ordering a 2023 as soon as they are announced 😊. It would sure be nice if they would add a built in generator like ford has….that would be a deal maker for many folks.
Two completely different tires and no real comparison. The geolander is superior to the michelin offroad but you give up the on road manners, wet traction and tread life. The michelin will be plenty for 90 percent of buyers but for those that offroad more frequently any all terrain tire will work better. That said I love the michelin ltx at2 over the trail series michelin. Ltx at2 come on the older tundras and they ride amazing while being great offroad. More than enough for most people. But that's just my opinion Also LT tires will ride stiffer than P rated tires and weigh significantly more but in return you do get a stuffer sidewall which translates to more stability while towing and more puncture resistance. It's a stronger tire overall so it comes down to your needs and wants for your particular application
Yes I believe he said will be safer off road which I'm sure they will do very well. But curious what he will give up in on road safety where speeds are higher and safety matters most.
@@ohioguy4326 Stopping distance in the rain will be significantly longer. Stopping distance on dry pavement or ice will be a little longer. Stopping distance in the snow will be about the same. The problem is you need a mud tire for off road mud conditions, there is no way around it. You can drive slower on the highway to make up for the longer stopping distances with the mud tires. In addition the truck looks much better with the mud tires.
I would have spent the $$ on an extra set of rims and mounted the new tires on them. Best of both worlds for daily driving the stock tires, the new ones for the offroad. That's a lot of loss in my book. Looks like it was pretty rough too on the pavement...
Man I enjoy your video's your funny as shit 😀 tires look badass you said your getting 19 mpg's that's more than what I'm getting with my 2016 Lifted Tacoma I'm luck to get 17 mpg's
Tire looks great, would look better with a offset wheel …like you said at the beginning you really couldn’t see the difference until you got closer…2 inch level in the front 👍…but at the end of the day all that matters is if your happy with it..enjoy
Yeah they do. I just work so much I would have no chance to install them until March. This was my only weekday off and this size was in stock. I think I’ll go 37’s once fenders and a proper suspension kit comes out.
If you put larger tires and vehicle cannot be recalibrated with new tire size you'll get all readings (speedo/mpg) wrong. I highly doubt you're losing 4 mpg. Same as if you put smaller tires your speedo will show you better mpg and higher speeds. So currently for example if you're going 60mph with new larger tires you're probably doing 65mph hense more mpg.
Why not go with 35’s. It would look badass on your Tundra. I can see the clearances that it could allow 35’s without a lift. (Maybe, if I’m not mistaken).
You have to put some decent tires on. You get stuck, you're staying there. No tow hooks🤣🤣 What wheels are those? I like them. Need to get them for my new 2021 Tundra. Not jokin
I always look at the max psi on the tire sidewall and run ten psi below that. This tire had a very high max psi of 80 so I only ran 60 psi. My current tire is D2 rated and max psi is 55 and so I run 40-44 psi.
you just went from Economic truck everyone is crying for and they even shrunk it for fuel economy lol to V8 Tundra mpg, probably worse since you got a small V6.
@@bubba4072 yes I just hit 1600 today, I also have upgraded tires 275/70r18 ko2's BF goodrich but I feel like I should be getting way better gas mileage on the truck, I'm getting the same as my 2020 Toyota Tundra that i had
