    Thats the main reason I switched to Goodyear Wrangler duratracs, they offer a 265/75/16 in a C rating
    I gained back the mpg and performance I had lost with old BFG Mud terrain same size E rated tires.

    33-35 psi for the past few years.
    BFG AT KO E rated 265/75/16 - 15-16 MPG 53+lbs
    BFG MT KM2 E rated 265/75/16 - 14-15 MPG 55+lbs
    Goodyear Duratrac C rated 265/75/16 - 17-19 MPG. 44lbs

    The lighter tire also makes for a quicker acceleration from stop and on the freeway dropping gears to pass.

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    The new KO2s C loads only have a 2 ply sidewall. I didn't know when I bought mine. I only saw it on Tire Racks web site after I bought and installed mine. Sucks because the older ones had a 3 ply and BFGoodrich advertises as having a 20% stronger sidewall but nowhere except tire rack explains that they went to a 2 ply sidewall. Its the same problem with E load Duratracs they used to have a 3 ply and now they are only a 2 ply. I have to say I am really not happy about this I feel like all these company's are cheapening out and don't expect us to notice. Rant over

    3 ply for e rated. It because of weight. Thats why they did it.
    I went 3 ply for sidewall strength. Have had bad luck 4x4ing and sidewalls.

    Yeah you need to find a shop that's cool with installing tires you didn't purchase from them. I have a local place that will install tirerack tires for $15 mount and balance per wheel. $60 + tire rack prices + shipping is pretty hard to beat.

    Idk man, not worried about it tho i enjoy the new tires. And from friends that have ran the tracs said they where good but why not try something new and if i was worried about sidewall puncture going to definitely go the three ply.

    The difference between the E rated tires I ran VS the C rated I run now is close to 10 lbs per tire. Same size.

    275/70/17 with Konig Six Shooters installed Friday. Had to remove all the front mud flaps and will have to do some additional trimming but haven't had a chance to track down where yet.
    The only negative effect of the load range E, coming from stock Dunlops, is the tires weight; sluggish acceleration and gas mileage hit. Was getting 18-19mpg, first tank on these tires was 16.6, should have the second tank results by weeks end.
    I think these ride better than the stock Dunlops. The taller sidewall flex, compared to the sports car feel of the Dunlop, was a little unsettling around the first corner but now I know what to expect and it doesn't bother me.

    265/70/17 comes in C and very close in size. I would exchange to get back your lost MPG. unless having 1/8 of an inch lift and 1/4 inch width means that much
