34 x 10.5 D-rated?

[Sting-Gray Neutral Pres.]

Anyone out there run these? I searched the forum and came up empty handed. Found BFG KO2 and Toyo Open Country AT3 as options so far.

My stock Majave Wildpeak take-offs are getting old and I'd like to replace with an AT or RT that is narrower and lighter to regain a couple MPGs and possibly improve obstacle tire flex a bit when aired down. I don't really want to change diameter much and these tires stay close at 33.5" real diameter. The typical pizza cutter move is to a 255/80/17, but every single tire I've found in that size is Load Range E, which I'm not exicited about. These are intriguing because they are both load range D which will presumably be a smoother ride, and come with a 8 lb/tire weight savings over the Wildpeaks. 10.5 in width is approx 265mm.

Check out the Kendra Klever RT line. They make a 35 (34ish) x 10.5 that’s D rated. They also run an AT line.

So I made this thread after searching around and then the almighty algorithm suggest the exact threads I was looking for in the first place. Guess you really have to get those search terms stated in just the right way on this site, and with tires there's a lot of ways to say the same thing. Here's a cross reference for anyone who stumbles on this thread looking for info:
