Tire size

I purchased my truck in April 2020 with 53000 miles on it. At the time, the tires looked pretty good, but now I need new tires. I added a 2-inch leveling kit, and I want to go up to 33's rather than the stock 32.5's. I was shopping around, and my mechanic told me the biggest I could go is a 285/70/R18, but I currently have 305/65/R18 (I never had any clearance issues with them). I don't want a 305 when I buy my next set of tires. I was looking at BF KO2's in 295/70/R18, any thoughts?

 

Stay away from BFG's. They are junk. Not what they were years ago.

 

295/70/18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers! Thank me later....

 

Ive had very good luck with Toyo At-3 and Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I have run multiple pairs on a F-250 loaded with tools and other heavy equipment. All on lease roads with varying materials of clay, sand,etc. They both hold up well. The RG are a bit more chip resistant.

 

I think it depends on where you live or what you drive most. Nitto RG’s unless you get a lot of snow, then Falken Wildpeaks...
