    I ran the Kenda Klever R/T's in 35x10.50r17. Great tires. quiet on the road. great on the dirt, in the rain and in the sand. they did not wear or chip as bad as other tires i've ran in the past. if you're looking for a tall skinny tire i highly recommend the Klever R/T tires

    He told me they have a lot of tread left but I don't know any specifics. Sounded like a good deal.

    If anyone is interested they need to do their own research. Didn't realize I would get so much shit for trying to share another TW member selling tires.

    Keep in mind, spacing out from stock offset (your +30mm) will cause rubbing

    Sorry for the late response. I did have some minor rubbing on the plastic when turning in reverse due to the offset of the wheels. My suspension is no longer stock and I love the look of the tires even more now that it sits up higher. I took them offroad in Ocala, FL this weekend and they did great in the sugar sand and mud.

    Cooper St Maxx 255/80/17's. Wheels are 17x7.5 first gen Tundra split 5's. I have had these wheels and tires on 2 different trucks and yes I mean the same wheels and tires. I have always run around 37 lbs in the front and 34-35 in the rear. They have about 50k miles on them now and till plenty of tread. I'd love to go bigger but dont want to regear and pull a micro camper. Most recent pics






    2013 AC 2.7l I had before this truck



    These tires have taken us many places in many different conditions. AOAA event last year they handled mud and rocks great. Great tire in the snow and rain and for as agressive as they are they are still relatively quiet. They handle loads with narry a complaint.

    This BFG tire is pretty much identical in width & height to the Toyo MT 255/85r16. If I had 17 rims I would give them a try. My preference is an aggressive all terrain over the mud terrain, but man the Toyo's ride great and leave me feeling well protected from average road and trail hazards. I had run the Cooper ST before also, they are a great tread pattern but quite narrow looking compared to the Toyo's, great for slicing pizza!! Wear wise I got similar mileage.

    Here's question for you guys with skinnys. How are you liking your choice? Also what wheel size do you have? I am planning on going skinny 33 all terrains but have no experience with the brands available. Also planning on going with 17s, what fits these tires better width wise. I see 6.5 - 9 is recommended but is a certain width better then others? Thank you

    Rolling on 255/85r16 KM3s. Love them. Making some noise on the road but it doesn't bother me. These tires are savage on the tracks.
    I had the tires on stock offroad wheels (16x7.5) and now on 16x8 with 4.5 backspace, 0 offset. They rubbed a bit before my lift.
