    Hey guys so i have 4 275/70/17 ko2s that are E load. I am looking to trade for a C load tire as this is my daily driver and i want somthing a bit softer for the family. I live in San Diego CA area if you have somthing that you think i may like let me know.
    Tires have about 2000miles on them so they are very new still.

    Chipi3s, you may want to stop at one of the local Discount Tire or America's Tire stores in your area to see if they can work out some type of trade for you. They sometimes take tires in trade depending on marketability in your area.

    Center of the flap. And yes the width is why it rubbed. Removing the flaps will eliminate rub completely

    Just got the same tires on... beautiful but that rubbing tho on turns... did you remove both set of flaps on each side (small front on and the mud flap behind)?

    EDIT: I removed the front mud flaps, left the little flap out front on. No more rubbing. Sweet.

    EDIT2: Removed the tiny front flaps. Was a small amount of rubbing when reversing with the wheel cranked. Bugged me so off they came!

    How do you like the ride so far? I have a a set of 275/70/17 st maxx’s In my garage and am a little worried about the e-load tire purely from a comfort level as a DD. I don’t care about mpg’s so much
