Dilemna on tires…

[bleda2002]

I used the same method as the posted picture i.e. level and tape measure.

Yeah so you measured squish not the actual rolling diameter which is bigger but not as tall due to the super soft sidewalls

For me it's about overall height to determine if I can upgrade to 37s and still sit in the garage. The actual tire diameter off my just is inconsequential compared to garage fitment.

Falkens Wildpeak 285/17 M/T Load C
Just hit 70K miles and getting ready to get new Falken AT/4. Never had any issues, but I also rotated on oil changes and watched the pressures at 35.

Rims came today

Not sure if it’s been posted in the last 8 pages but the K02s notoriously run small if that matters to you. I went from 37” K02s to 37” Firestones and the size difference was very noticeable. Regardless, my K02s were a great tire while I had them.

I’d look at the tread pattern that matches your actual driving more than the marketing label. For light trails and lots of pavement, a milder all-terrain usually rides quieter, costs less, and still looks the part. I had a similar setup and kept things simple after chatting with a heavy truck tire shop Montreal I’d used before, since they helped me think about how tread affects road feel even on lighter vehicles.

So what "tread" are you running?

Got wheels and tires mounted today. Quadratec Ascend wheels, Wildpeak AT4W 35x11.5x17. PERFECT fit for what I wanted, flush to slightly inside the fender. Thanks for all the good info folks.

Those wheels look really nice! Might have to pick some up for my 2025 white Mojave X and go to 35X11.50 while I'm at it.

Ya, I didn’t want black…….and these are on sale for $181 a piece……..There’s a few others that I liked but they were atleast double the price. I’m really happy with these. And the 11.5 Wildpeak AT4W’s were about $80 cheaper a tire compared to 12.5’s

The 35X11.50 will actually mount correctly on the Factory Mojave X rim. I think the factory rims on the MojaveX actually look good.

Yes, they could…….but I wanted a wider rim and better offset to get them flush. And these look fairly close to the oem rims

He’s speaking of brand recognition. Once you get burned by a company, you’re hesitant to buy from them again. For instance, I’m hesitant to buy a Goodyear or Cooper tire because of terrible previous experiences. It works the opposite way as well.

Same here with Coopers, though I tend to think it was a little more complicated than the brand alone so I don't fault anyone for liking them. Still, it makes me hesitate when I am going to spend a bunch on tires!

I don’t either. I just don’t think they’re worth the cost because they aren’t even that much cheaper.
