national 265/70/16 K02 tire shortage

it’s time time re-shoe the old horse (all stock ‘14 dcsb 4x4) in the middle of a national tire shortage.

i could step up to 265/75/16 k02 - they have plenty.. but they do & do not rub depending on who you ask.

what’s a good sub? i run highway speeds daily

- any body have a feel for
- Bridgestone A/T REVO 3?
- bfg mud km3 - not sure about running these on the highway
- michelin LTX A/T 2
- goodyr Duratrac
- Toyo OC A/T 3

 

i would just wait for k02 or roll the dice on the 75s - all others are runner ups

 

Ill save ypu the trouble of reading all the replies you're going to get.

Every single tire you mentioned sucks ass hard.

Every tire you mentioned is the most badass tire on earth and anyone that buys a tire different than what i say is a moron and a fanboy.


265/75 works!

 

I don't know why but that was funny AF.

 

I bought michelin LTX A/T 2, never own michelin before but gave them a try. i am no fan boy, but i would do i again. beats the toyos and any other tire i have owned, but just speaking from experience

 

I run the General Grabber ATX in
265/75/16. It’s been a great tire so far with mostly highway miles since I got them put on the truck. All around better ride than the stock Toyo’s that came on my truck.

Can’t really comment on rubbing for a stock truck…I have no rubbing but I have the Rough Country 2inch front level kit as well as the Ready Lift 1 inch rear block kit.

I ordered them online from Simple Tire and they were on my doorstep in 3 days.

 

thanks for the info guys.

after others have confirmed no rub on gen2 dcsb, im going with 75’s. more than likely sticking with k02 mainly for looks and highway use.

 

thanks for confirming 265/75

only considering other tires because national stock out of 265/70 K02’s. since 265/75 K02’s are plentiful, i’ll stick w/ the baja champions - lol

 

i looked hard at these because i’m on the highway daily. but do like the K02 “4x4” look. i wish michelin would come out with a H+ speed rated pilot A/T.

 

i do like the looks of these- good to know they run good on highway - thanks for the info.

 

i reloaded w/ K02’s. got tired of waiting so i joined the 265/75/16 club. zero rubbing and all stock
