Stock setups

2022 402A Tremor currently stock… wanting to switch wheels and tires but all the threads I’m finding are all mentioning a level kit. Due to past experiences I really do not want to put a level on another truck if possible. I would like to get different tires and open to different wheels as well.

Option 1 would be getting E rated tires on the factory wheels without a level, anyone want to chime in on that?

Option 2 would be getting E rated tires on new wheels…. But then opens the can of worms of offsets and bigger tires….

I’d like black 17s on a bigger tire but still having the ability to maximize the offerings of the tremor abilities that was engineered in it. I once knew all the specs to the Tundra world but crossing over to the Fords and then add in the 14th Gen and now the Tremor line and it gets a bit overwhelming on numbers and what can do what.

I am with you on this. I wish that the stock tires were E-rated. Not sure why they were not standard issue. I am looking at purchasing some more capable tires for load and towing. I want to install on the original wheels (that I like). I do not want to install any suspension modifications, but would like a slightly taller tire that will fit without any lift required.

It should be easy to find a similarly sized E rated tire. But when messing with the wheel offset it can be the difference between a tire fitting and not. You can take a stock tire and put it on crazy negative offset wheel and it will rub. I love this calculator when choosing new wheels and tires.

Wheel Offset Calculator

Use our wheel offset calculator to visualize the new tire position when changing wheel and tire sizes. Convert wheel offset and backspacing to calculate the correct setup for your vehicle.

For what it’s worth, 295/70/18’s seem to fit fine on a stock truck with no issues. This is a good size to run for an extra inch of height and width, and e-rating.

Here is my truck with that tire size and before it was leveled. The guy at the tire shop said I had plenty of room too.

Those are the Falken Wildpeak AT/3W’s in 295/70/18.

Did you notice any changes to the ride quality with these tires? I'm looking at the same tire/size combo, but am a little concerned about the stiffness of the E rated tires.

Also, did you notice any change in mileage due to the tires and/or tire & level? I already have a level, just waiting for my OG tires to wear before picking up a new set.

I think the ride quality pretty much stayed the same. To me it wasn't super noticeable with the E-rated tires. My mileage droppped by around 1-1.5 mpg with the 2" level and tires though. If I baby the gas pedal I'm still getting 19-20 mpg on a flat highway, and 15-16 in the city.
