it's the vignette of the photo honestly, it looks proportional for the size of the vehicle but DEFINITELY not a chunky off road look.

My thoughts exactly, except they advertise it as protection to hitting things. I'll leave it there & if it is destroyed I'll ask for a replacement.

Three rims waiting for UPS to bring #4. I'm working on finding the best deal on these Coopers.

Rakuten has 3% cash back for Discount Tire & Tire Rack at the moment. Check credit card rewards as well. Every now and then mine is 10% back at Tire Rack.

Oof, still a gut punch.
One of the reasons I'm glad I went with the Limited instead of the Platinum Explorer. Tire prices for 21s is insane compared to 20s

Why the Coopers and not K02's?

Also, you should ceramic coat those wheels now before you put the tires on. It'll be WAY easier.

K02s have a bad rep for not balancing. I plan to pressure wash & ceramic coat them tomorrow (assuming UPS delivers #4 today)

Also, Final rim out for delivery! I have an appointment to install & align Saturday!

There was 3.75% Rakuten cash back on the tires, somehow it failed to register. I sent a request through their help portal which responded you didn't activate the cash back, contact Simple Tire. Simple Tire said what?

It took a bit of doing but I'm getting the $.

that stack of wheels that JUST arrived looks like you bought them a decade ago and forgot about them.
I WISH I had that kinda garage space to waste and then complain about being too hot to work in!

It's great now. Mid 70s.

What do space & the summer temps have to do with each other?

Really? This is the first I'm hearing of this... They are a factory tire on Jeeps and have been for years and I ran them on my Jeep with zero issues.

There are a slew of threads on Tundras.com that they cause vibration & are hard to balance. I have no personal knowledge but the Coopers have a great rep & cost less so I went with them.

Cost less, sure. Hard to balance, not in my experience or what I've heard in the Jeep community.

The Goodyear Wranglers are notoriously bad to balance though.

I have a 2-car as well.
40% of it is my kitchen & the other 60 is the home-office/gym. Prior owners put in a mini-split & decked it to the same height as the house, so it's no longer usable as a garage, despite still having the roll-up door.

I posted these for sale including all the info & manufacturer link & the specs, person asked for the specs. Do I expect too much???

I bought these for my '13 Sequoia but it aligned without them. Paid 100 plus shipping, I'll do 75 shipped to the CONUS

https://www.spcalignment.com/index.p...tion&pid=25450

Replace your OE adjusters with this Cam Bolt Kit from SPC. The OE bolts on Toyota trucks and SUV's are frequently "frozen" and do not allow for adjustment. Remove the frozen bolt assembly and replace it with an SPC cam kit to get up to ±1.50° camber and caster change. OE adjuster assemblies that are severely corroded may require SPC's press tool 40915 for removal, making the job quick and easy.

Front Adjustment range: Camber /Caster ±1.50°
Installation time: .3 hr/side
Required: 1 per wheel





Install instructions:
