Why in the world cant they make a fully down back window like the tundra? That sir is a sweet looking truck! I can fit 33s stock on my Tundra, but this look is amazing!
The TRD OR would have motored right thru that hill climb. Whenever I see people buying Sport's to build out 4 Wheel rigs I literally roll my eyes. Yes I know Mark's truck isn't a Sport, but it shares the same handicap.
Depends what you need. I’m not normally in need of drive modes that OR comes equipped with as I don’t do technical trails too often but when I do I always find my way out of any predicament I’m in with either technique, traction boards or in this case a friend standing on my rock slider 😂
It has been reported by tacomabeast that they ran 35's on a new tacoma which caused the turbo to overheat. So 35's on a stock tacoma would burn out the turbo. Maybe re gearing or just run 33's and hope that your 60K dollar truck doesn't blow a ball bearing or worse.
I believe that is Jace’s Tacoma you’re referring to. (Ghosted_trd). His transmission was over heating and he said his turbo runs at max boost for extended periods of time when going up a grade. All that to say he is worried about the long term reliability of the 35s on these non hybrid models.
Would re-gearing help? I just got a 24 taco and was thinking of doing some bigger tires, but I don’t wanna fry my motor! I have a MT too, which has a lower gear ratio I believe
There is also the option for 35x11.5x17 but in my opinion the wider tire looks so good and really adds an aggressive look to the truck along with better traction
I just bought a set of 16 inch kmc wheels for my gen 4. I know that the lug nuts have changed from 12mm to 14 mm but what specific brand are you using for your lug nuts?
Great looking truck!!! How do you like the Recon Grapplers, love the look but stuck between Ridge and Recon is there reason you went with the Recon. I do more highway driving than I do off-roading, but I like an aggressive looking tire. Any input would be greatly appreciated and your videos are awesome and have helped me a lot in my upgrades.
I would say no unless you need 35's for ground clearance issues and you then regear for them. Those are heavy tires for a small hp/tq engine and I read of others overheating with those on, especially if you tow anything. I think 33's are the perfect size, about max size for weight (without gearing) they fit without a lift/level and negligibly affect drivability and economy. 35's do look nice however.
I know it was sick! I just couldn’t do it anymore with how limiting it was which would ruin the fun sometimes but man I’ve always wanted to do a show truck build so that was a fun run
Maybe something to consider for the long term if running a heavy load tire. Throwing a Load C on it to keep the tire weight down would be better off then something like a load E for example
Yo Mark, Think we are in generally the same area but I got the 24 TRD sport (same color) on AT 34's and same wheels. I ditched the spacer kit and went with the King 2.5's (HUGE difference) and just got the Magna flow cat back on it. Dirt King said they would be releasing a long travel kit for it next year as well... That is something I'm really looking forward to in this truck. Still gotta get a rack and some fog lights but yeah. The BIGGEST thing was def the Kings.. The truck handles and feels 3x better.
Mark - Trying to compare the Trailhunter and TRD Off-road to see if the Trailhunter is worth the extra cost. Was curious how much you paid for your tire upgrade with the rims? Also, what was the cost of the bumper you got?
According to Icon, 33's are the best tire size for the new Tacoma. I say it's your truck do what you want. However if it's between TH-cam content creators and Icon, I'm going to listen to the guys that actually design lifts and suspensions.
I gave my input based on experience I have with my setup not rubbing in the slightest. I can’t speak for Icon but there are some factors to consider such as allignment and the fact they chose not to remove the inner fender bracket to clear the 35s Westcott Designs has their own allignment specs for their lifts which I have installed and everything clears perfect.
Does anybody know what is the largest size tire for the 2024 Taco that will actually fit in the allotted spare tire compartment??? 33 or 35, thx in advance

What would you estimate the power loss and mpg loss to be at? How's the spool on your turbo while driving around town and on the freeway?
About 1/8th power loss, about 1-2 mpg per gallon on average, maybe not depending

When I detail a truck I usually clean the tires also, but hey that’s just me I guess lol

@@MarkBrennerI’ll let you borrow my ORP for a video if you are ever on my side of the US.
I got the trd with the diff locker and sway bar disconnects and its sick definitely makes a huge difference
Loved the stance and function, what are the exact specs? Tire size, offset and lift kit?
A bit too much tire poke for my liking. I went with a 285/70/17 on 17 x 8.5 Method 305’s with a +25 offset. 100% factory suspension.
can you send me pics of your wheel setup? I plan on doing the same thing when my TRD OR comes in, Thanks!
i love look and mpg of 33’s
I have spotted one close where I live and looks exactly like this one even the color. Congrats for your truck 🛻 😎

What were they doing when it overheated? I’ll check it out, Is there a video?

When going up hill like that at 00:43 seconds..do you put your Tacoma in 4L? I’m still learning how to use 4x4 that’s why I ask.
Love how the 35s look
🤘
So the moral of the story is.... Bring a spare person with you when you go offroading for traction.
Lol right
That rock crawl was awesome. I actually think it would have still made it by going in reverse and hitting it from a different angle.
So what do you prefer? The new tundra or Tacoma, having driven/modified both
That square body Chevy kick butt
It’s so sick in person
Depends on what you’re doing. All rounder -315/70r17. More sand and mud - 285/75r17 or 295/70r18 unless you want to order pizza cutters
There is also the option for 35x11.5x17 but in my opinion the wider tire looks so good and really adds an aggressive look to the truck along with better traction
How do you find the sr5 without the locker for off roading? Is it good enough? Why didn't you get the off road taco?
It’s more then good enough. I never use the locker on my Pro Tundra so i just didn’t see any value in the TRD OR package
damn... that is one cool red/green truck
🤣🤣
I just bought a set of 16 inch kmc wheels for my gen 4. I know that the lug nuts have changed from 12mm to 14 mm but what specific brand are you using for your lug nuts?
Very Cool Mark. It’s impressive to fit 35’s on a Tacoma. And it’s a 4-cylinder. Cool buddy 😎
Prob faster then your v6 😂
No rubbing or body mount chop putting 35s on 17s for the 24 Tacoma?
Didn’t cut a single thing
What kind of lifts are you running

Where do you get your red front hooks I just got a 2024 Tacoma sr5!
I went 285/65, 34.5x11.2” but my wheels are 9” wide 20’s with a +20 offset
Nate needs to roll them
Wheels when doing tire shine to get the bottom edges
I’ll let him know!

I really liked the set up with 37x13.5 and -44 offset on your SR5. I wanted to get that my 2021 Tundra
I know it was sick! I just couldn’t do it anymore with how limiting it was which would ruin the fun sometimes but man I’ve always wanted to do a show truck build so that was a fun run
@@MarkBrenner Agreed! The functionality is definitely not the best but it certainly looks bad ass😎
@@erandyperez2452 haha love it 😂
More articulation with optional sway bar disconnect.
Yeah
Looks good, but I think the tires are too wide, and the truck looks like it needs a bit more lift to look more proportionate.
Mark, what elevation did you use and what exact rubbers do you have. Thank you
you worried about the extra stress on the axeles and vehicle with bigger tires?
Maybe something to consider for the long term if running a heavy load tire. Throwing a Load C on it to keep the tire weight down would be better off then something like a load E for example
The stock rear diff usually gives up pretty easily with 35's, so most guys know they're going to be replacing the ring and pinion sooner than later.
Yo Mark, Think we are in generally the same area but I got the 24 TRD sport (same color) on AT 34's and same wheels.

Still gotta get a rack and some fog lights but yeah. The BIGGEST thing was def the Kings.. The truck handles and feels 3x better.
With 35s do you think this truck would be good as a daily driver or stick with 33s?
33’s any day of the week and then some
I love your truck man, i would love to have this set up on my trd sport, what exactly do i need to get this set up? Sorry i dont quite understand
Any transmission heating issues with that tire size?
Did you cut anything off the front bumper?
Mark - Trying to compare the Trailhunter and TRD Off-road to see if the Trailhunter is worth the extra cost. Was curious how much you paid for your tire upgrade with the rims? Also, what was the cost of the bumper you got?
Does the Wescott designs collar lift effect your Toyota warranty?
Hey what’s the set up I’d like to use it on mine thanks
$50k truck and they forgot the front lockers..
Did you have to trim anything?
That first obstacle was the spotter’s fault…that wasn’t the right line to take obviously
so 33's and a front leveling kit in Dallas' daily traffic would probably work just fine
Can’t say for sure but probably without even lifting it
33's feel like it's still stock and no level is needed depending on how aggressive of an offset you choose.
Is that stock ride height?
i just bought tyhe same truck in the same color UNDERGROUND but its a sport im trying to get fox suspention ill go with 33's and 17X8.5
Beautiful truck
Thank u!
Nice looking truck
Thanks!🙏
Offloading allows so much fun sometimes
That’s right 😁
Mark for your Tundra TRD Pro did you replace the rear coil springs. What is the height for both front and rear? thank you and loved your video.
I didn’t replace the rear I just have a spacer in it bring it up almost and inch in the rear and 2.5” in front with the preload collar

What kind of tires are those bro they look bad ass hella beefy?
How tall does your tacoma stand with current mods?
slap on some portals and run 40s, then it would look perfect 😉
Does anybody know what is the largest size tire for the 2024 Taco that will actually fit in the allotted spare tire compartment??? 33 or 35, thx in advance
I have this same question - waiting for the Pro trim
I've seen it said on a forum 33" is the max size
What trim is this?
you're going to burn out the turbo lmao!! good luck with that bro.
so the chevy at 16k is better than the 50 to 60 k Tacoma.
Is it a 35 with no lift?
LOOK GREAT NO REAR LOCKER ?
No rear locker
35s on Turdbo
35s are too big in my opinion. 33 is Max that I would do.
that truck needs regear
Tacoma needs a much higher lift bro
8:26 thank me later everyone
4 cylinders……
