I apologize these are low quality...my camera was not working so they are from my cell phone. I finally had 305/65/18 BFG AT KOs installed this weekend and I wanted to get some pics as soon as I got the truck cleaned up. The tires are new but I've had the 2" Bilsteins and 1.5" AAL since spring time. My stock BFG Rugged Trails made it to 51K before I took them off.

Thanks to everyone on here who made recommendations or provided advice. I was on the fence between the 285/65/18 and the 305/65/18 and I'm glad I listened and got the 305's. I would have regretted it if I tried to settle with the 285's.

I do notice a difference in drive-ability though. The biggest thing I've noticed is that it won't hold OD like it used to. My truck has 3.55 gears with the 5.4 and is a 4X4. Stock tires were 32" and these are 33.7. Depending on how it feels as I drive it more...I may consider going to 4.10 gears.

I had a post on here a few weeks ago asking if these would fit with my splash guards. There were mixed responses. After putting them on I found that tires fit fine and do not rub lock to lock. They do come very close the the splash guards but still don't rub them.

Anyways here are some pics (cell phone low quality):

 

looks good man, nice work

 

Looks real nice.

 

Good looking truck, enjoy your new tires

 

Looks Good!

 

Sweet!

 

Tires look good and try going with some tunes maybe to see if that helps you out any before re-gearing

 

Thanks for the input. I actually already had the truck VMP tuned long before I got the tires. All I did was adjust the rev's/mile with my XCal3 to get the speedo corrected after the tires were installed. Should I have Justin re tune for the bigger tires or should adjusting the rev's per mile like I did be enough? I have not decided for sure if I will re gear to 4.10s...it is usable with the 3.55's and is probably not really necessary but would make it a lot more fun/easier to drive. Decisions decisions haha.

 

nice

 

Look's great, nice choice!

 

Very nice, enjoy!

 

Re-adjusting the tire circumference yourself is all you need to do, but everytime you change your tune you will need to remember to change it to that circumference again, so if you have Justin program it you dont need to remember to change it yourself every time to adjust something else.

You would have some better bottom end torque, but your economy will drop even more with anything bigger.

 

Win

 

those are hands down the best all terrains on the market.

 

I have a question for you guys.

When you bottom out the suspension with those tires, will they hit the fenders? I've read they fit close to perfect on a stock rim driving to work and Walmart, but how are they when you are romping around in the dirt?
