New Tires Today (BFG KO3s)

[jdamtb918]

I just got mine put on with the white letters out (285/70 load C) they are much quieter than the stock Generals and I do notice a more damped feel to them compared to stock. Maybe it’s just because they’re new and the General’s had 50k on them.

Looks great! Anyone had any issues getting them balanced? I have seen a couple things that it takes more than some other tires.

So what do you guys do about your spare? The spare on my Tremor is a 265/70- not sure if it is ok to run two different size tires on your truck in case of a flat.

I think mine balanced just fine. I’ve been on highway at 75mph and the ride is smooth.
I didn’t change the spare tire yet. Not too worried about it at the moment. Not sure if a 285/70 will even fit under the truck yet.

Did you just say “damped”?

Yes not to be confused with being wet.

My RR came stock with 285/70/17 ko3. I did not like them at first. Scared the crap out of me in the rain and braking. Of course they were overinflated from dealer. Been running them at 38psi. That and a 1000miles they improved greatly. They do sound nice when barking the tires in all wheel drive going up my parking garage ramp at work. You should see the looks I get.
It is going to be interesting this summer to take them on the same trails that I last did with Cooper Wild Treks which were awesome offroad.
