    Well it's time my studded winter tires come off, and my old summer tires are no good anymore, so new tires it is! I'm either getting the BFG KO2's or the Hercules Terra Trac AT2.

    I've been thinking about getting 245/70R17 instead of the stock size 265/65R17 as they are essentially the same diameter. I'm curious if the 245/70's will look ok on a stock TRD Sport wheel? I'll save a few buck to get the 245's, just wondering what it will look like?

    Also, I can get the Herc tires in a P tire, but the BFG's are LT only. I tow a 4000lb trailer several thousand kms a year if that would make any difference? I know the P's will handle the load, just thinking the LT's may last long?
