@iRage now, we have safe and very economical batmobiles too. I don't understand why you're critisizing 2020?

Yours was a red leaf? Talk about Cherry bomb. 

The leaf owners club truly is a sad sight. Until the relevant battery technology comes around, this would be situation.

Drove one, really liked the launching power and silence. 

That's why I have seen alot of Nissan leafs with broken bumpers.l due to the silence and braking power. Even the car I drove had a cracked bumper. Like 1 in every 5 leaf has accident damage. Or is it just me??

Why though? You're got simliar tyres on a similiar vehicle in your garage already, so why bother putting mud tyres on both? Personally speaking I find mud tyres are pretty shit for highway driving so; unless you drive 100% on unpaved roads am not sure why you would want to replace perfectly viable highway tires with mud tyres when you already have them installed on the other SUV? Since you live in the same household, I'm assuming you get to drive both vehicles? So why not have road tyres / highway tyres on one and mud tyres on the other? That way you have the best of both worlds?

I 100% agree with you, its best to have on-road tires since its 100% on-road vehicle and only driven short distance for work.

This change is only for the looks.

Unlike the LT tires on mine these tires are only extra load (4ply rated) so hope it won't be bad as mine on highway. I just wanted to make it look like mine (almost) and may be play with it off pavement.

Ah ! I see...the inner skint in me would jump at this opportunity to buy your old highway tires off you at this point if I lived in the neighbourhood!

Well as far as looks go: Yes, definately the new tyres do look a lot cooler ?

And that is exactly why you need to sell them to me!  Plus think of all the space in your garage that you'll free up! (Jeez, at this point I'm already trying to convince you to sell them to me despite having no realistic way to even consider picking them up! lol. See what I mean about being skint?!  )

Meanwhile in Cali people just get the limited model pavement princess! Sold 10 4runners during my short stay at Toyota. Not a single person gave a shat about off roading!

Ha ha.. That's so true. I hate those low hanging bumpers and 20" wheels on the Limited trim. I think people buy Limited because of the full-time 4wd (and 7 seats) vs the part time 4wd on the TRD-OffRoad. If my wife had muscles to use the 4wd shifter on the TRD-Offroad that would be my preferred choice. I absolutely love the TRD-Offroad for having more tech and ground clearance than the Land Cruiser 200.

BTW today I'm taking the limited for X-reas suspension delete (Getting Bilstein 5100s and Toytec springs) and new tires installed. Though my TRD Offroad has OME Nitro shocks that would be too much for the Limited since its a Pavement princes. Mrs wouldn't know her's got the cheap ones. LoL.
