    Thanks for the reply. I did find your post in the 2022 Mud Flaps thread it is just difficult to determine distance from a photo.

    I am looking at the wheel offset calculator on tiresize.com. When comparing a 275/60R20 on +20 wheel with 275/65R20 on +18 wheel it says the top of the tire to fender well is 0.55" closer. This makes sense to me as the two tires are 1.1" different in diameter.

    that pic was the best angle to show distance of full lock to mud flap. if i have time and when the wife is home (she is gone this for about a week to house/dog sit, $25 per dog min 2 dogs per day, win for me house by myself and her $$$) i will try to get another reference pic with my fingers if that helps.

    Recon Grapplers best looking tire aggresive and functions I’ll say number 2
    They look the best and close second for function. Due to more aggressive tread..

    Coopers decent looking aggresive sidewalls but not as much as the Grapplers. Function I’ll say number 1
    They look good and function they best

    Falkens more aggresive then coopers but not close to the Recon Grapplers aggresive looks…
    Function I’ll say tied with Recons. Coopers better then both.
    I think there number 3 for shoulder grip and looks. Recon clear winner with Coopers number 2. The Falkens are not as deep as the other 2.
    Shoulders grips are what make these tires look so good

    IMO

    Yes I concur, I had conundrum for quite some time choosing tires for my rig. Copper, I will say they are a little noisy. I hopefully will get them installed Monday or Tuesday. Hopefully Discount tire gets em soon. I really like the aggressive look of the Falken, and seem to do everything well, on road & off road l, wet and dry as well as snow is why I ultimately chose these tires. Did I mention the looks ?! They look freaking sweet, the Toyos also fit the bill performance wise, just their side wall profile was lackluster.

    Here’s a link for a great review on the Falkens vs BF.

    Ok I’m laughing because the Falken verse Nitto is a Falken made video. Listen to it it’s obvious lol it was made for Falken.
    They say it has better wet traction due to more contact patch but then in snow it says it’s a more narrow tire so it does better in snow Lol
    How can more contact patch be a more narrow tire lol.
    All good just realize what your listening to.
    In Texas Nitto Ridge and Recon Grapplers are by far the most used. I don’t see them being this popular unless they worked well for all the ranchers and jacked up street driven trucks guys that run them.
    Just an observation. Someone else said his coopers were loud. That’s simply not true if your alignment is correct and the tire is balanced plus rotated every 5000 miles. Not saying his were not noisey just that it was prob something else causing that noise…
    On my truck at 85mph they made zero noise seriously zero!
    The guy that bought them from me had his remounted and balanced at discount tire and he said the same zero noise nothing! Again it’s very overwhelming. Just trying to help with peoples decisions.. Again
    IMO

    Best looking AT tire IMO
    Nittos
    Falkens/Coopers tied

    Aggresive Looks
    1-Nitto Recon Grappler
    2-Cooper AT3 XLT due to beefier shoulder tracks over Falkens
    3-Falken Wildpeaks

    Best all around Function
    1-Coopers AT3XLT
    2-Nitto/Falken Tied

    Noise how quite
    1-Coopers AT3XLT
    2-Again Tied Nitto Recon Grapplers
    Falken Wildpeaks.
    All the tires are very quite but there has to be a winner. The coopers zero noise. The other 2 very very slight noise but you have to really focus radio off on a non windy day to hear anything!

    Warranty
    I believe Nittos are the best with 50,000
    And 60,000 Ridge / Recons

    Look closely at the treads. It’s obvious what the quietest tire will be Cooper

    OffRoad performance Nitto Recon

    Street performance Coopers

    Aggressive look
    Nittos

    Best fuel mileage and the lightest
    Coopers

    I’m using Nittos Recons on the street and luv them. Sold my coopers for them because I wanted a more aggressive look

    PBNB sorry never used but there new
    Toyo Open Country RT Trail looks very appealing to me.
    Not the Toyo Open Country RT
    But
    The Toyo Open Country RT Trail
    Lol easy to get confused
    Nitto and Toyo are sister company’s
    From what I’ve heard the The Open Country RT Trail was designed after the Nitto Recon and Ridge Grappler because it’s Nittos Number one and two selling tires.

    I went with the Toyo Open Country AT III mainly because of the 3 peak rating. I also like the looks of the Open Country RT but it doesn't have the 3 peak rating.

    Some of our highways require winter tires for nearly 6 months of the year. If not, chains are required.

    PBNB excellent choice. Don't laugh as I almost picked them but there shoulder tracks are not very deep and I just like the deeper shoulder tracks.
    But for function very very good tire and they do look decent. One of the reasons it’s One of Toyos best selling tires!
    So many choices. When I tell you I spent 2 months studying wheels and tires I’m not kidding! Many sleepless nights but I’m a fireman paramedic so I’m up anyway lol.
    Great choice again. I’m sure you luv them.
    PBNB I know u have to have the snow rated rating but for others don’t get caught up on that. Look at snow reviews. I guess the 3peak rating is a time consuming juncture and expensive to get…
    PBNB I’m from Chicago in Texas now but I remember studded tires and chains.
    Use to make me laugh when guys would leave studded tires on during spring. SPARK SHOW lol

    The toyos are 10 ply and mine are quite but the tire shop owner sells a ton of bfg kos. The toyos can get noisy when out of line driving or when you change lanes but that is the meat of the tire contact. Going to a 275 65 20 fills the wheel well nicely.

    Thanks for taking the time to check! From your photo's it looks like there is around 3/4" clearance and a 275/65r20 should hopefully fit.

    Just order the Cornfed spacers for my rig also. Good guys down there at Cornfed.

    great guy, had a convo with him. He stated, should not have to worry about articulation for that mild lift. Going with a 2” front and 1” rear.

    looking forward to see how it looks and functions. I don’t do anything crazy off-roading. Atleast not my personal rig. I get my 4x4 fix at work, with the work trucks. My favorite is our old 07 F350 turbo diesel. That thing is a beast going thru terrain, it gets the occasional death wobble. But remedied immediately by our techs. Wort that had happened, we’ve lost like 3 mufflers from all the bouncing around and once a drive shaft. Love that ol’ girl.

    Little to no change in mpg with these 37s. Speedo says 60 when I’m actually doing 70 but this isn’t new coming from a Tacoma with bigger tires. Spare location is gonna need a permanent fix.upload_2023-5-26_17-4-46.jpg

    I love them. 4th set I’ve owned. They’re a good median tire for mainly on road driving with the occasional off-roading. I’ve beat the shit out of the e-rated ones and they hold up amazing.

    I wish Nitto retained the TGG2 (3 peak rated) but they decided to ax that line for the Recon Grappler, which doesn't have the 3 peak rating. Recon Grappler is too similar to the Ridge Grappler in looks (IMO) and they should have retained the TGG2. It's great in snow in my experience.

    Hey just some info I found.
    295/70/18 is the Perfect size if you want zero rubbing,keep your mud flaps and the same diameter as a 35-12.5-18 that’s so popular. Only diff is tread width.
    It’s about a 9.25 we’re the 35 is 10 inch tread.
    But either one of these sizes is a heavy tire. Average for all brands is 62 to 68 lbs…
    Of course this affects performance and fuel mileage as rotating weight is the toughest weight to add.
    We’ll I just found on Nittos website this tire…
    Nitto Recon Grappler 295/70/18
    One of the most aggresive tires in the bunch that weighs 52 lbs !!!!!! It’s a light tire because it doesn’t have a D or E load range but it’s a true 295 size…

    when I look at this size they do offer the same tire in a E load rating. So for someone who wants the big tire but doesn’t needs the heavy tire load rating this could be a great option and save 10 to 15 lbs of rotating weight per wheel… That’s a huge savings!
