BFG 265/75/R16 KO2 LOAD E w/poll

Hard to tell if the negative's outway the positives. So let the people who OWN them vote! I obviously know the Load E's will get a little worse mpg's. But I think the ride might be better, even though a little stiffer. I have no idea if there's going to be significent power loss. Please vote only if you have this exact tire! Thanks

 

Did you maybe mean 265/75r16 load range E?

Also, TRD OR comes with Goodyear Wranglers, not Rugged Terrains.

 

Haha! Got it. I changed the title. Curious about the load E's.

 

Why would you want the load range E?? They are a good bit heavier = more un-sprung weight = more power required to roll them. This truck only requires load C tires.

 

Probably doesn't want to have to buy new wheels.

 

I like the stock rims. They only come in load E in that size. I would have to buy new rims at a cost of around $800. Also, many guys seem to love them. I'm thinking maybe just a few guys are hyper sensitive to the negatives. Hoping that the owners of this tire will say once and for all. Hell yes, or Hell no! I want to hear from the guys who have these on there truck right now. Anybody can speculate weather they would want them or not.

 

If you voted and you don't own them, cancel it. I think many of us who are considering this tire would love to have a pure survey.

 

Down here in Arkansas , there are a LOT of gravel roads with sharp rocks . I will for sure get 10 ply load range E tires after my first cut up tire that cannot be fixed if kevlar does not hold up on my future TRDOR.. I told the wife , a lot of money could be made by tire companies if they offered select 10 ply tires for small suvs and even cars here. It is a sure thing to get the road hazard protection with new tires here .
Even if a tire is replaced under the road hazard plan ,it is still a pain in the arse all too many times .

 

I ran that size on my Gen 2 for 60,000km.

Improved traction, handling, stability, looks and durablity. With wear they became noisy, The added weight and diameter pushed the brakes to the limit and fuel economy was poor.

I wouldn't do it again. My current truck has 265/75R16s from the factory and the selection of load range C offroad tires is lacking. Ended up with P rated Hankook ATMs for now, excellent tires.

 

So far pretty even 50/50. Just wished I liked the 17" trd pro wheels more. Then it would be a no brainer. To my eyes the stock trd off road wheels look tougher.

 

I'm sure hoping the votes for the 265/70/r17 load C tires have actually run the load E 265/75/r16 on the 2016 tacoma. Otherwise, this won't be accurate. Make this legit! Change your vote if you haven't run them on this truck. I want the truth! Even if I can't handle the truth!

 

I'll let you know I'm not leaving the dealer with mine till it has 265/70/r16 E rated tires on it. Limestone gravel roads will eat the factory P metric tires for lunch.

 

If you want a load range C 265/75/16, I'm getting Toyo Open Country AT2's like that.

 

I have them and went up a size and mine are load C for my Sport. They look awesome and no desire to go back to stock.

 

Mmmm. R we done?

 

I have them and don't mind them at all. Yeah, it's overkill loadwise on our trucks, but I don't worry as much about gravel roads and other offroading as I would with a thinner tire. MPG dropped a couple, but I knew the 4.0L was a gas hog before I bought the truck, so I was already braced for cruddy mileage. Would buy again.
