I like you did not want a wider tire and went with a 285/75x17 E BFG KO2 on the stock wheel. After having the tire for about 1,000 miles it began to wear on me how little the difference there was between the 285/70 and the 285/75 and made the switch to 315/70/17 C BFG KO2's which look a ton better..it just fills out the wheel wells better. Maybe its the difference the the load rating but the 315's ride better. And by a stoke of luck Discount Tire only charged me a mounting fee for the bigger tires.i was looking into what tires I might get when the Falkens need replacing on my Rubicon.
The stock tire is 285/70x17 and I was looking for a little more sidewall so I typed in 285/75x17 into the Tirerack’s website and came up with several including the famous BFG’s. These are also E rated which would be a plus when I end up putting a cap and RTT on the truck. These tires are about 34” in diameter versus the factory 33’s.
I really don’t think I want a wider tire like some here like (to each their own).
Any comments?
