BFG KO3 review

I saw that today, but are we sure that D rated 265/75 actually exists for that size? I only could really find it at discount. I do see it listed at a few other places, but nothing that seems promising. Also weird it’s not on the BFG site if it does exist.

And you are correct, the weight is definitely incorrect if the tire does exist. Discount has been known to have weights listed incorrectly. The e load is about 55 lbs from what I’ve seen. D load 265/70R16 is around 48-50 lbs, so I would think the 265/75 if it exists would be around 50-51 lbs.

 

BFG's website states 55.5lbs for 265/75/16 E rated. D rated 265/70/16 is listed at 52lbs on BFG's website. My mpg took a small hit as did acceleration, braking performance ect. I knew it would.

If C rated are an option in a size you prefer I'd recommend trying those.

Recently installed a Cali Raised Stealth bumper with 32” light bar, BAMF front frame horn reinforcements, and a 12k lbs. Badland Apex winch.

Truck goes in to my local off-road shop tomorrow morning to have my front Eibach suspension bumped up to accommodate the recently added weight on the front end.

While there, it will be getting new tires and an alignment. I was previously running 265/75/16 KO2’s. Now, I’m bumping up to a set (including the spare) of 285/75/16 KO3’s. I had a chance to swing by the shop the other day for a sneak peek at my new tires. I rolled one beside my front to give me an idea. Lookin’ beefcake!

 

Can’t wait to see pics of them mounted on the truck and hear your thoughts!

 

Thank you! Once I get my truck back, I’ll throw up some new pics!

 

Thanks! I’m curious to see how they look because I also run 285/75/16s but I’m currently on Yokohamas.

 

Does anyone have any photos they could share of these with the stock 265/70/16? Seems like folks always go up in size so it’s hard to get a good comparison at times.

 

@MGMDesertTaco is the only one I know of. I may get the same eventually. And agreed, it’s always hard to get pics of the stockers, no one that comes here keeps it stock.

 

285/75/16 KO3’s

 

Man they look SO good!

 

Thank you! I’m very happy with them!

 

Only 2 I have...

 

2400 miles after install

 

I was going to say that it didn’t really look like a nail when I first saw the picture, but I didn’t want to be “that guy”

Glad it’s all good!

 

Sick!
