The SKINNY on skinny tires

Either of you guys have issues getting them balanced or did they add a ton of weights to the wheels to get them to balance? Mine have tons of little light weights on the inside of my wheels.

 

No issues balancing. The weights on my wheel look to be an average amount. Actually I think there's about half the amount of weights on the Klevers as when I had my Grabbers installed.

I tell you one thing...at 20#s more per tire, I can definitely feel the difference.

 

Do these fit with out the cmc? Right now I am stock but will be going up 2" also does anyone know the weight?

 

From what I have read, people are running them without CMC. I'll see how my truck accepts them. They come in around 60 lbs.

 

No CMC required.

 

Damn those are heavy. I’m intrigued by the price but the 34x10.5 KO2’s I believe are around 52lbs.

 

Yep, they're 10 ply rated with 3 ply sidewalls. Thicc boys.

My bathroom scale showed 62.3 lbs. I have a 2" inch lift and am no where close to needing the cmc.

 

That pretty light for a 34” tire with more than basic street treads. My old setup on my 2019 with Nitto’s in 285/75/16 (34”) were 65lbs each.

 

I was looking at the 34x10.5 KO2's but I couldn't find them anywhere for less than like $350 a tire, which is outrageous.

 

Yeah these are my first meaty tire I have ever owned. I can feel the ripples at low speeds on asphalt then at highway speed I can definitely feel the road more. Wife even mentioned the suspension felt rougher. I know beefier tires are harder to balance than low profile car tires but wasnt sure what "normal" was.

 

Yep I'm around 2.5" lift in the front, haven't CMC'd or done pinch weld and have zero contact lock to lock with zero offset 17x8.5 wheels. I did hear it rub something plastic while going over a curb earlier this week but that was nothing regular driving would see. I am sure I need to remove the coil and test at full stuff to see if I need to trim plastic wheel well or heat it and re mold it.

 

God bless I just checked and you’re right, they’re ridiculous. The more I look at them I’m leaning towards 255/80/17 Toyo Open County RT. Measures 33” and weighs 56lbs.

 

Check your tire pressure. Having it too high will make you hate these tires.

 

I'm coming from 10 ply 265/70r17 ridge grapplers so the weight isn't much different on my end.

 

I had Nitto MT’s before and didn’t mind. I’ve gotten spoiled with these P rated Wildpeaks though. So light and nice on the road, but I’m always worried about popping one in the dirt. Guess I’ll just have to get over the weight lol.

 

At this time we are not able to order the Kenda Truck tires, however you are correct we are able to get the UTV and some trailer tires.

 

What are you running yours at? I had mine mounted and balanced last week. The shop inflated to 38 psi. I haven't checked to see if there's a better recommendation.

 

do a chalk test. Easy and useful

 

Man, who has chalk just layin' around these days?

 

32 up front, 28 in the rear.

Chalked.
