When you account for the size difference in tires its about 3.8% larger, so you got closer to 22.5 mpg
@@upperleftnorthwest4278 can you explain the calculation I didn’t account for?
@@TheFamilyCruiser250okay so you had 233.7/10.871= 21.49
Your current tire size 285/70/17 compared to 245/70/18 is 3.8% larger in diameter & circumference, meaning you have to add that back into your total mileage on the tank, so now its 242/10.871= 22.3 or so mpg.
The odometer/speedo is calibrated for oem stock tire size, so your readings will be off. Thats why some people were asking about measuring miles driven by GPS
@@upperleftnorthwest4278 You're spot-on. Just for some additional context for anyone not familiar with this topic...The manufacturer tunes the odometer/speedometer to the diameter of the tires the vehicle comes with. This doesn't adjust itself if you put bigger diameter tires on, therefore the vehicle will actually travel farther than the odometer indicates because each rotation of the wheel/tire that is being measured to calculate distance is larger. Someone else can probably explain it even more clearly.
I'll watch countless 4 minute videos before clicking on an 8-20 minute video to cover this same succinct subject. THANK YOU!
@@geallen11 noted…keep vids short and to the point.
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 greatly appreciated and I’ll keep coming back. I’m an LC purist, (2013 200, 1989 FJ62) with eyes on a new one for the Mrs.
@@geallen11 she’s going to love it. My wife no longer drives her own car. 😒
Just to let you know once the gas cap is removed it can be hanged onto the gas door so the gas cap isn’t hanging down the side of the car.
I have the same Fifteen52wheels on my 13 FJ. I love them. They look good on your LC too.
26.8mpg stock 21.49mpg with wheels and 33 inch tires. With my heavy foot, I bet I could get those MPG's down to 17.5,
@@drobs7279 haha yea, I drive like an old man on eco mode.
Dude 5 MPGs is CRAZY !! Thats like a 20% hit just to have tires. I almost bought a set of Rubitreks for my GX460. But I went with Yokohama Geolandgers G015. Mainly because of the weight difference, like 4 pounds lighter. But the Rubitreks are good tires and they look pretty cool. But Dang 20%
@@Walter-ol6gd I may need to rerun the test using gps miles instead of odometer miles. Someone mentioned here that they will differ in favor of the gps miles being more accurate resulting in a better mpg number.
Im putting 34.8 inch tall by 11.2 on mine when it comes in this week
@@andrew5373 no lift?
That’s awesome! I’d love to know your MPGs after you do!
Interested to hear your thoughts on the 1958 Trim. I am on the fence of stepping up to LC trim. Only thing I wish I could add to 1958 would be 360 camera and Larger center screen (audio/gps).
@@jpd420 the screen I don’t mind, but the 360 camera would have been nice especially out on the trail.
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 For me the sway bar disconnect is the only real miss on the 1958.
@@toddforgie3431 there are few other things but Toyota will just say to but the upper trim 😒
those wheels are sick
One of the best "steelies" out there
Based on my calculations you must have added approximately 25+ lbs for each wheel/tire combo. That's a good amount of weight. Also if you didn't adjust the tire size in the computer your speedometer is reading approximately 6mph slower than you are actually going and your odometer will show less miles traveled. Any chance you weighed the OEM wheel tire combo?
@@larryroberts1635 OEM wheel and tire weight is 72.6lbs
Thanks for the info, still on the fence between the Lexus GX and the LC. Also, Redlands checking in!
@@harlanpepper I wanted the GX also but ultimately went with the LC because of price and the little increase in mpgs from the hybrid. Also, the GX powertrain may have issues like in the Tundra (same powertrain).
@@harlanpepper if you go with the LC, see Gabe at Toyota Redlands!
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 Yeah, I had heard about the twin turbo V6 issues the Tundra was experiencing - which prompted me to hold off 6-12 months to see how they resolve things. I also like the lower floor in the back sans-battery, but honestly, the Nori Green option on the GX was a significant draw to me. I only drive a couple thousand miles a year, so fuel economy didn't weigh in much for me. And the extra year on the Lex warranties was nice. I'll have to go see them both in person!
@@harlanpepper in the end, it was the classic round Toyota headlights that got me. 🤓
did you go off gps miles or speedo miles. On my tacoma when i had 33s put on. It throws off my travels miles. You actually travel more miles the. What the speedo stats. Meaning you actually get better fuel economy
@@andrew5373 good point. I learned that after i filmed this vid.
you should be able to program your tire size into your ECU. it will correct speed and mpg that way
@@wimsurf soooo how do I do that??
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 I’m not sure if hptuners already has access to your car make and model, but on Chevy and dodge they give access to these options, best to give them a call
@@wimsurf thanks
How close is the brake calipers to the inside of the rim after switching to 17". With the OEM 18" rim on the 1958 model, my finger could barely fit between the gap.
@@ranak9534 it’s tight but there are no issues with it. Toyota technician says it’s a non issue.
You on C or E rated 33s? i had better mpg on C than E when I switched for my tacoma
Better than my GX460
Did you put a level kit on it?
@@Stevofryer no lift …. Yet.
Shout out to the kid for suffering through this video!
@@rrrttt0113 😂😅
Woa that's a big hit bro, that's allot of money over the course of a year. i'd stick with the stock
Yay Redlands!
Why do You shave your eyebrows? SoCal thing, copying Woopie Goldberg?
$6.45/Gallon?
@@UncleFjester I don’t have to shave my eyebrows. Mine just fall out with the rest of my hair because I’m old. And since you’re referencing Woopie, you must be as old or older than me.
@@UncleFjester and it’s $4.70/gal at Costco 😛
What was the weight difference between the two ?
@@bt4b4 stock: 72.6lbs
New setup: approx. 80lbs
That’s +32lbs for whole setup. 😬
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 thank you, looks nice !
I’m bummed the hybrid allows for only 1100 lbs of total payload. That’s nothing. Additionally, you can’t put more than 132lbs on top of the cover in the trunk that’s on the hybrid battery. How do you even build out the vehicle or sleep in it if the cover for the battery can only sustain 132 lbs on top? I was really hoping this had more overall capability, but it has way less than the 200 series. How disappointing.
I confirmed with the dealer, the 132lbs limit is on the cargo compartment lid. The battery is enclosed in a metal cage. There are pictures I've seen that show the cage and a good amount of airspace between the top of the batter and the cage. The build showed a complete drawer system and full length sleeping area. I will try to locate. If I can I will add a link to it.
@@larryroberts1635 then what would be the point of the lid on? Would you then just remove the lid and have a few hundred pounds air directly on top of the metal cage? I just don’t see the point of why having one if you’ll have to remove it to put anything heavier on it? Was it just to try and even out the load floor that isn’t even leveled?
What’s the max capacity on the metal cage? And is it true you have to keep those back vents open for the hybrid at all times
@@D_F_L_ No. If you watch a few video that show you the cargo area you will see there is a small storage compartment that is at the very end of the cargo area between the back of the battery and the bumper. I don't know the dimensions but i would estimate it at 6 inches wide, 6 inches deep and the width of the car. The lid to that small compartment is where the weight limit is. Not the main cargo area. There isn't a lid that covers the battery. The guy just removed all the paneling to show the battery is well protected and can support more than 120lbs.
Ok that makes a lot more sense. Thanks for the clarification. I hear the ground clearance when measure at the lowest point is actually closer to 9 inches and has more articulation than 4Runner with full time 4x4. It’s more superior than the new 4R coming out.
Is this the 4 cylinder diesel?
@@altaafkader9675 no it’s the US Spec 2.4 4 cylinder turbo/hybrid
Do the bigger tires mess with any of the safety / driver assist stuff in any way?
@@christorealov9050 no issues
Do you have any idea how tall it is with your tire wheel combo and without any racks?
@@billphilliard967 I’ll do a measure for you soon.
Is 91 octane recommended?
@@Jaa2019 unfortunately, yes
Did it feel more sluggish with the bigger tire?
@@AA-vr8ez just a tad, but that’s expected. Once the turbos and hybrid motor kick in, it handles the added weight no problem.
I thought stock was 33
@@scottstewart8737 on the FE, they come with almost 33s.
What’s the bolt pattern?
6x5.5
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 thank you!
these old people yap yap n yap. a car video that barely showed any car. epic failed
The 33's look shit on the car
@@pietvanderwesthuyzen6502 should I go bigger?
Why the hell don’t you just use highway all-terrain tires in the stock size? You live in Southern California for heaven’s sake where you’re rarely going to take it “off road.”
@@ThirdBrainLives it is because I live in Southern California 😎 and I am a Californian. Therefore, aesthetics.
@@TheFamilyCruiser250 Makes sense
Yep totally nowhere to off-road in southern california or anywhere near southern california. ZERO off-roading. it’s all paved. The entire desert southwest is paved and flat. SoCal is just like Colorado, Utah and Arizona as flat as can be. They use this area to fine tune levels. NEVER go there.
