Tire size....probably dumb question

Ok, so I have probably put too much damn thought into tires, but here is the summary and question.

I went from 265/75/16 Duratracs ( e load) to 275/70/17 KO2. To me the KO2 feel like they provide a much harsher ride than the duratracs in the same load. I am debating between moving to the skinny side 34x10.50x17 d load KO2s or to the 285/70/17 Duratracs load d. I will say the skinny 34s certainly appeal to me. Anyone who has gone from 34s to 285s or vice versa care to weigh in? I have done the CMC already so that will not be an issue with either. I did not need the CMC (but did it anyway...just in case) with the 275s since the LR UCA allow for quite a bit of caster adjustment.

 

@OZ-T you talk about 34x10.5s all the time. Maybe you can help?

 

@teamfast just went from 275/70/17 to 34x10.5x17

 

You'll have to rephrase the question.

 

I guess after re-reading my rambling you are correct.

@teamfast-Did you notice a better ride with the d load 34s over the e load 275s?

 

100%. The 275 were stiff. Especially in winter.

 

Agree 100%. Feels like I have steel for tires.

 

Anyone exchange tires at Discount during the 30 day period?
