I am leaving town in a few days to hit some trails in Utah. I plan to air down for some of the sandy trails, so I will need to air the tires back up after completing the drive on the remote sandy trails. I have a 2024 GX550 Overtrail, so my car has no built-in tire pump. Is there a go-to...

RRK - thanks for those pictures. What wheels are those? Are they the same size and width as OEM? Your 275 tires look larger than I expected. Nice!

Thank you DJ for your very detailed reply. I appreciate it. I also spent some time on both Gemini AI and Chat GPT and both agree that for me an SL rated tire is best. I don't tow (I did once, but have no plans for future towing) and my offroading is more sand and not very much rugged sharp...

I have a totally stock 2024 OT, and my tires are near end of life. I am planning to stay stock look, but change to the slightly larger 275/70R18 tires. For others who have made this change - how was the ride quality changed? I see the comment above by DJ that quality was improved - how so...

I drove to Buckeye, Arizona yesterday and I picked up a Uhaul car trailer. In 15 minutes, the trailer was on my Lexus and ready to go. I bought the $39 Hitch Ball kit from Uhaul and it inserted easily into the hitch on the back of the GX bumper. The ball has a 2 - 1/4" drop which worked...

Great, thank you. I will take that cover off before I drive there.

I bought a classic car in a town a few hours away and my plan is to drive to that town and do a one-way rental back with a U-Haul Car Trailer and my 1970 Mach 1. I've been doing a little reading and it sounds like there are some challenges with the hitch on the back of the Overtrail. I see...

I am interested in replies to this data above. I have a 2024, so I would be concerned about fitment on my truck. I don't want any rub, and I have not modified my suspension. I do like the idea of a slightly larger tire filling my wheel well.

How many inches of "headroom" do you have from the top of the sleep platform to the ceiling? (I would then subtract 3" for the height of my foam mattress.) It looks nice.

I have the original OEM Toyo Open Country A/T, in size 265 70/R18. I would like something a little larger to fill out the wheel well if possible. I do not want to do any lift on my truck as I am concerned about making the ride quality any rougher than it currently is. I came from an Audi Q7...

What size did you use? Did you match original size, or go with the 275 - 70's?

I have a 2024 Overtrail and my OEM tires are near the end of life, so I am contemplating which replacement tires I want to put on my truck. I want to keep my OEM 18" wheels Most of my driving is city and freeway driving, but I take 4 or 5 trips per year to Utah and I love driving off-road -...

Can you post picture? I live in San Diego and may be interested. I have the OEM Rock Rails and I am looking to trade for side steps.
