    Getting ready to pull the trigger on new wheels and tires. Would like to hear opinions on these two. Why you choose or would choose either. I will be getting 265 70 17 and will be doing very little if any off-roading. If you have either post pics please would be nice to see what you got.

    I just put the Falkens on. I am a BFG fan but went with Falkens. They were cheaper and not as heavy.

    So far the Falkens have been excellent in the rain.

    I had KO2's and went with the Falkens this go around. Next tire change I'll be sticking with the Falkens. Don't think you'll find a single person who's been disappointed with them.

    The load range E of the bfg is overkill for your needs it appears. Save money on some P, or c rated tires

    Go ko2 since that is the only size that you can get a C load in of that tire.

    I have nitto Exo grapplers rn and had BFG KOs before the nittos. Next go around the falkens are going on. You just cant beat the price and they have great reviews if you are a trail type offroading person!

    I think I linked the P rated anyway. Can't find the ply rating.

    I have considered the wildpeak for my stock 16's on my '17. If they made them factory size in C load, I'd probably get them.

    IMG_1083.jpg 265/70/17IMG_0007.jpg now 285/70/17 p rated. These tire were made to run on heavier trucks F150's, Titans and the like. I have done plenty of off road with them and no problems. They are great tires. I have had several pairs of the O.G BFG at's, they were great as well. A few people had problems with some 265/75/16's but those seem to be the only ones

    Falkens for sure. I had Duratracs prior to these. The rubber compound on the Falken AT3/W is far more quiet and has better traction on wet pavement. And they are considerably less money than KO2s. Mine are 265/75R16, P rated
