Different Tires?

[B-Dog15]

Hey guys!

I have been looking into getting new, more aggressive looking, tires that are the same size as the stock tires (225/65r17) and was wondering if anyone has done something similar? I am looking at the BFG Trail Terrain t/a (225/65r17) but was wondering if anyone else has done something similar?

p.s I would love bigger tires but don’t want to go through all the hassle of recalibrating speed/odometer…

Not the stock size, but I can vouch for the Wildpeak AT Trail being a nice tire in 245/65R17. I believe the Trail Terrain is a similar idea. Tighter tread blocks than the AT3W so many people like, but the grip is great on steep and dry as far as I can tell. I was climbing 22°+ degrees without spinning and decending at a controlled 2mph last weekend. This was sandy or gravel over sand in the SoCal desert.

*I love my all terrain tires ... smooth on road yet great off road AT Tires. (I sized up slightly to 235s.)

Speedo error is minor. I have 245/65/17 Wildpeak AT3w and at 70 mph it's off by a couple of mph. You can run Waze nav app and it shows your GPS speed. Generally you aren't going to get pulled over unless you exceed the limit by 10 or more. The Waze users are active and it shows more police and road hazards than any other nav app I've used.

Yeah O get that in just little weird and that would really annoy me even though it’s probably already off by that anyways?

I put 255 55 R18 on my Outer Banks and did not see any speedo errors.

Tires!

I'm thinking of going with the 245/65/17 Mickey Thompson tires. Those things look sweet and have a great reviews. Pricey though...

I put the stock size seventeen inch Trail Terrain on my 23 BB. Had them on my 18 F150, great tires. I highly recommend them. Only had 3600 km on the crap Conti's

Snow tires are a must around here.
