    Treadwright Warranty?

    Yeah and apparently im one of them...they pretend like theyre shipping a new tire but nothing ever shows! Avoid treadwright at all costs. just a nightmare.

    Treadwright Warranty?

    Anybody actually had a positive treadwright warranty claim? I had a tire tread bust apart on the highway (no impact or anything) with only 2500 miles on the tires. I was stranded for hours (btw check your rigs for that long special tool to lower the spare :boom:) I filed a warranty claim 2...

    235/85 vs 265/75 for daily driver

    I loved them, but the tread started separating from the casings :( Not sure I can recommend Treadwright anymore, maybe if they fulfill the warranty. Damn scary scenario though, being on the freeway and the rear tire starts making banging sounds!

    Engine Chatter While Accelerating

    I would agree with others that it is NOT pinging. I had pinging on my 99 tacoma and it sounds like a coffee grinder, so much that It sounds like little pieces of metal bouncing around. When I put in 92 octane, it went away. To fix it, I cleaned the MAF and found a small air leak on a hose...

    tire options

    I wanted tall and skinny without adding any lift. That's the 235/85R16: just for fun, metric tires sizes are so fun! 235 = 235 mm width (~9.25 inches wide) 85 = 85% of that width is the sidewall height (0.85 * 9.25 = 7.86). Add the 16 and two sidewall heights 16" + 2(7.86) = 31.72 16 =...

    235/85 vs 265/75 for daily driver

    I always the look of 235/85 so I went with Treadwright's Warden 2 - AT tires $440 shipped and so far so good! They do have what's called "flash" where the outer casing peels away, which is just a cosmetic issue from what they tell me. Here's a few shots. My rig is completely stock and with...

    P0125: Freeze frame data

    I had the p0171 and assumed it was the O2 sensor (A/F) but it was not. Check the hoses at the intake for cracks. I had a crack causing a good air leak. It was very hard to see until i physically pulled off some tubes. Also, clean the MAF really good, there are some little wires that are not...

    Is there a keyless entry option for a 96 limited T4R?

    Do you have the little red security light on the dash? Or elsewhere? Usually that's the first indication that you had/have a system. I might try to pull it apart soon and trace the wire hoping it leads to a box. I also have a small speaker looking device under the hood, that looks like a...
