    Any know what would be the best fit as a spare tire for a 275/70/17 ko2s? I just looked at my spare and its a 245/75/16. I don't think that would be good as a spare, ill be driving from San Antonio to upstate ny on Friday

    More than likely, we will have to get the same tire and wheel.

    275/70r17 will not fit. Going to smash the brackets to make it fit. That's how I did mine.

    Good to know thanks guys. I talked to one of the tire shops and they said if I don't plan on doing any wheeling on the way to NY I shouldn't have any worries. The KO2s apparently are pretty tough, I may just have to keep one in the bed in the future or look into getting a tire swing on the rear bumper.

    I noticed a really small difference, but that's what engine mods are for lol. I want to see if a CAI does much. I just put on a catback Flowmaster and I think there's a bit more power. It might just be the sound making me think its faster.
