    Need some tire advice/opinions!

    So currently I have a set of 265 75 16 Cooper At3s 114T Load range on stock 16" Steel wheels that weigh 70 lbs each with the wheel and tire. I got a new set of 16" bronze trd wheels that weigh 23 lbs each and I was debating on weather to get a new set of KO2s or a load range C tire cause with the new 16" trd bronze wheel and a load range E KO2 that will only weigh in at 76 lbs with the wheel and tire which is only 6 more lbs than I'm currently running........
    I can get 4 Ko2s shipped to my door for $720 or 4 duratrac c rating tires for 696 shipped go my door......

    Which should I get for the new 16" bronze wheels!?

    Here is the new set of wheels!

    Thanks for the input!

    what are you doing with your coopers? From the people ive talked to for some reason they dont care much for the knew k02. Idk if it has to do with truck weight or just our roads around here suck but they complained about wearing too fast.

    I say go with the load range c. I have an e rated tire on me and it's a little unforgiving when not loaded up hitting potholes

    Probably gonna sell all 5! They got like 6000 miles on all 4!

    So go with the duratrac's, just wanted a little more aggressive of a tire with the new wheels!

    Toyo offers there AT2 in a load range C as well if you don't want such an aggressive tread. But the duratracs have some good reviews for sure

    I prefer Cooper Maxxs, but was only able to find KM2s in the size I wanted...

    I ordered four 265 65 16 LR C Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs Friday from discount tire direct, $696 shipped to my door! Waiting on them to get here sometime this week hopefully. Putting them on these wheels! I'll get pics of them before and after once I get them installed!
