    I'll be having 265/70r17 KO2's put on Monday. I'm expecting a 10% drop in fuel economy from what I've read here, which is fine. The stock Dungflops are getting pretty ragged around the edges and the sidewalls pretty beat.

    Just picked my truck up. Love the new look it has. Installer set the pressure at 45, I promptly dropped it down to 35. Being as these are E rated I may end up going down even lower. It's too soon to really tell any major difference. Truck is about a half inch taller now. I ended up with the E rated tire.

    I have to say I am rethinking my plans for lifting and may just go with Eibach 1.6" in the front and bags in the rear for loads. I'm an that pleased with how the truck looks and handles other than the desire to be level.

    Looks perfect. I would just get the front up a 1" and call it good.

    Im thinking about going with the BFG Ko2 275/70/17's. As far as lift is concerned, is a 2.5 inch lift be more then enough for this size tire? I currently ride with Bilstien 6112 adjustable shocks in the front that can adjust up to 2.5 inches. Don't want the rubbing.

    Check your uca clearance. They may be pretty close now if you're running 265's. You may rub the frame at full lock at that size also.

    First 200 mile trip under my belt. I was lazy and didn't fuel up to check economy loss, though I'm not optimistic with this tank. I drove a little faster than usual into a head wind, which usually got me 18 mpg max with the stock tires, and traveled 100 miles of winding forest service roads.

    On the plus side the KO2s with 35lbs of air in them did awesome. Maybe my stock Grandtreks just sucked so bad but the ride and handling were both great. Traveling over washboards wasn't as bad either. I failed to slow down for a couple 20mph corners and not even a sign of squeal with these where the Dungflops would be singing.

    I'm going to be replacing my stock mud flaps with Husky's sooner than later. The trimming I did on the front was great for the Dungflops but these BFG's really pick up the debris and throw it and I need a little more length.

    Truck looks nice. I finally bit the bullet and bought KO2 in 265/70/17 with C load rating. Currently running them at 35 psi.

    Those Dunglops were downright unsafe in any sort of weather. Will report back once I get some miles under these tires.

    I just purchased 4 285/75/16 via 4Wheel parts!

    They are running that special no tax, no shipping, 50.00 off and then BFG has the 50.00 rebate.

    So pretty good deal, 857.00 out the door and then the 50.00 rebate.

    I am debating of putting on stock OEM 16s or buying TRD Trail teams in Black..

    I think I would prefer not to mark up my Daily Driving wheels and save the OEms for daily driving.

    Sounds like I might have some minor heat gun modding to remove rubbing.

    Will also have 2-2.5" lift and install my SPC UCAs soon

    I have 265/70r17's in a load range E. Ride is great, better then the Dungflop Grandtrek AT20's the truck came with.

    Hopefully someone can chime in on this. 03 DC 4WD taco with 70K. I got BFG KO1'S 265/70 16 on right now with 58K on them. Even with the stock size they rubbed up front on frame at full lock both sides but not bad. Im wanting to get 265/75 KO2's cause there like $40 cheaper a tire. Will they rub worse, not as much or not at all?
