    Just did 5100’s (set at .85) on all four corners and BFG 265-75-16 on my 2018 TRD off-road 4x4. Rides great and no concerns with the new safety features. I had the install done at 4wheelparts and they extensively tested the new 2018 with lifts to make sure the new tech wasn’t effected. They do all the builds for my local dealer so they are a very reliable source.

    Looks good! Should have went 285/75R16! They look great and don’t change the driving. They actually make it ride better. It’s a smoother ride.

    Btw, how much did 4wheelparts charge you for the 5100 kit and installation?

    The BFG AT KO2’s are 32.8” I’m running 285/75R16 Cooper STT Pro’s which are 33” and zero rubbing. My wheels are Method NV’s 16x8 with 0 offset. The 0 offset is why I don’t rub. My tires are in the heart of the wheel well. So, if you decide to get wheels, make sure they are 0 offset and no more than -6 offset. -12 and you will require a CMC.

    The 285’s totally change the look of your truck. The tires look awesome. The stance is even better. My MPG’s are relatively the same. 19.2 with 265’s and 19 with the 285’s, but the difference in ride quality makes it all better.

    Yes. There is a video of a guy who installed 285 BFG’s on stock suspension.
