Limited 4WD Impressions after Mammoth Trip... (Freeway/Rain/Mountains/snow/ice)

[BrianLSU]

Hmm... that's not good to hear.

Which part?

The one where I said not to judge mileage until a few thousand miles have accrued or the part where I said I have less than a thousand miles on mine and I'm waiting to see what it will finally be?

17Hwy sounds like crap... IMO... even w/ your current mileage.

This may be off topic, but it does involve the Limited.

Can anyone tell me why the temperature is indicated to the tenths?

example: 65.0

You can't change the temperature to 65.1 so why not just make it 65?

I've had the car two months now and just noticed it. Has anyone else noticed this?

 

[fxoffroad]

It's not off-topic as long as you share your average MPG numbers.

Hey snow&surf... can you share the name and size of your DynaPro's? I'm trying to locate them online.

Any rubbing?

Thanks.

i like the geolanders but for me, they're like the antenna, and need to go. here are some more photos with the new dynapros mounted.....

Our limited is still reading at 18.5. It started at 15 when new, now with 700 mi. on it we are hoping it improves. We are rural/suburan driving mostly 45-60mph. some stops along with city commute to work.

We got 6 inches of snow yesterday and as sh*** as those geolanders look, they actually grabbed quit well in the heavy wet snow.

275/55/20 Hankook Dynapro ATm RF10 on the OEM wheels for now, should be getting my new 20s in a few weeks. No rubbing issues at all.

snow.
i was wondering is the backspace of 5 inches on those rims a little too much? ive read here 4.75 inches was most u can go. are you planning on using spacers. Did you see the way the valve stems stick out and are they compatible with current tpms. should look damn sharp on your 4runner. If they fit, id be interested in looking at some other ultra wheel for my 4r

Ultra Wheel headquarters is in Orange County, CA, where I live. I've talked to several of their sales associates and wheel experts, and I've taken my 4runner to one of their preferred installers where they tested the fitment with a wheel of similar specifications and said I would not have any issues.

They also said I can transfer the OEM TPMS with these wheels.

We shall see and I will update once mounted.

Shoes look great on your Toy. Really like your color choice.
We are still running the stockers on ours and i must say that they do surprisingly great on deep road snow and ice, sure that real tread would dominate though.

Heres what your toy would look like in a typical April5 shower in Mammoth:

BTW- we are getting a 12'+ dump tonight and i will let you know how the pow is next eve

Took my 4runner up during the crazy dump in January with the stock tires and had zero problems. No issues with their performance, just their size/looks.

El nino has been good to us this season, but the jet stream hasn't been south enough the last couple storms. You are so lucky! All I have to say is I'm glad to have an MVP Pass and that Mammoth will open 'til July 4th!!!!! Great pic btw, now show me that pow!

tele'n the am away legs 'l be sore in the pm

20" total so far and still snowing!
Storm Day Powder(my fav.) on the Mtn., but ch.22 was open and the Avy Chutes were getting that perfect wind loading on each run.
Tomorrow should be a Bluebird with the Top opening

So are the Hankook Dynapro ATm Rf10 275/55/R20 considered a "safe tire" for the OEM wheels? @ toyota.com, the specs say "P245/60 R20"
(yes, things sometimes take a while to sink into my little brain. I just don't want to make a regretful mistake.)

hankook dynapros also come in 275/60/R20, but i believe the overall diameter was gonna cut it close so i opted for the 55s

P245/60 R20

Is it true that the only options in this size are the geolanders, blizzacks, and dueler h/t's?

if you go with a bigger tire is there a way to calibrate the speedometer?

 

[fxoffroad]

Triple BUMP...

Should I assume the answer is a NO?

Wow! Sorry FX, I wasn't aware this thread was brought back to life. To answer your question, technically, no. Hankook recommends a minimum width of 7.5" for the 275/55 tire.

I ran these tires for 10k miles on the OEM rim during winter and early spring with no issues before selling them for my Nittos. However, in no way am I endorsing anyone to do this. That choice is up to you.

Your answer was always just a quick look at the tire spec away
