    I had some in 285/70/17s Load E before upgrading to 35s. They were phenomenal tires.

    Ahhh perfect Chalupa. After the advice I got here this morning I am thinking these tires with the 5100 lift.

    Are these tires heavy and will these and the combo of the lift kill the mpg on the truck?

    EDIT: still learning, so if what I just said above is gibberish...have mercy on me.

    What do yall mean when you say 33's or 35's. Is that the height in inches of the overall tire?

    It’s set up for a military style ID wallet but when I get home later I’ll take pics of the inside. I may have another pouch I can give you for a med kit set up. I’ll look in the garage

    It’s a very popular tire but for what you’re wanting to do there are some better choices out there for the money.

    Nitto ridge grappler or terra grappler
    General Tire grabber AT2 or atx
    Falken at3w

    Longer lasting road tire
    Mostly quieter
    Less rolling resistance for better mileage

    I haven't seen a single other of those tires last as long as mine were going to, I can believe the quieter and depending on load range idk about the resistance either. I do know my KO2s performed phenomenally on/offroad for what they were.

    I had about 50-52k miles on mine and they still had a solid 15k miles left.
