Got new tires - BFG All Terrain T/A KO2's in 245/65 x17"

[13MikeH]

I hear ya, to each his own. Road noise means heat and resistance.
I forget the tires but they had massive knobs sticking out on my friends Rodeo.. they took a road trip in the summer...
Those fat knobs started popping off bouncing like super balls.
They broke a guys windshield right before the blow out. The Rodeo needed a new fender and new tires, it was hilarious...
Stories of Glory dayz,,,, Yep it's all true...

It's funny but really not . My old bronco they ran the big beefy OEM and they had a roar. Thankfully they didn't come apart like that

Found them, the side knobs are what came off, each the size of a golf ball.....
she also forgot to air them up to on road pressure.
I think they were below 20 psi when they detonated.
You all should have seen the rooster tails these tires threw in the sand, Epic...

Buster got some new kicks today....BFG All Terrain T/A KO2's in 245/65 x17". No lift currently. No rubbing lock to lock, definite increase in road noise (although not extreme at all), haven't had them long enough to know mileage impact.

For anyone's reference if in the market for new tires.

Those look awesome. I may have to go big when my Falkens wear out

That's insane. I'm betting the low pressure was a major factor but lord that's some serious tread. I can envision the sand just launching?

I was surprised her V-6 could power those shoes.

Any head on shots that show the width increase (if any)?
Thanks!

I have 285/75/16 KO2's on my FJ and i've put about 60k on them and the tread is still decent. I have the E rated ones though, great tire overall. I would have gotten them again for the BS but we got the Outer Banks and they dont make the KO2 in a 245/60/18 so i had to go with the Falkens.

What size Falkens did you get for the OB?

245/60/18 no lift on right now and they fit great.

Now you need some rims, and turn the lettering around

Nope it looks great just how it is. Why buy cheap generic looks rims?

 

[RSH]

Apparently you didn't understand it was a joke.

I changed my rims because the stock rims with the little horsey look just like the rims everyone else has.

I will Say, the person that posted a pic of his powder coated stock rims did a good job.

 

[christopheru]

I may get black steel rims for my next set of A/T tyres and save the stock alloys for the wintertime ??
