New 275/60/20 BFG A/T KO2

[bzubke1]

The hwy noise is only slightly noticeable compared to the Goodyear eagle ls-2s that I had previously. I put a ccm leveling kit on this weekend. Hoping to get some pics up soon. I still haven't had a chance to get the tires on anything but pavement to really see how they perform but they're great in the rain.

These tires are next for my Suburban. Original KOs were awesome on my Durango.
Why did you go with that size? I see it makes the sidewall .5" higher than 55s, which is fine with me. Any reason to not go 60s?

I wanted a taller tire for a little more ground clearance. 285/55/20 and 305/55/20 were a similar height but a bit more than I wanted to spend. After putting the ccm kit on the ground clearance is great. IMO it could look tougher with a wider tire but overall I'm happy with how it turned out. It rubs a bit on the front side of the fender liners but after a little work trimming some plastic it should have plenty of clearance.

I just went from a 33x12.50R22 tire to the same size as you with a 10.83 width. I thought the same about the width of the wheel but after getting the new tires they are plenty wide enough.

I've put 2500 miles and had them in the mud 1 time and snow 1 time. I can say these things are great. They eat mud, clean out well and didn't disappoint me. Snow wasn't much but seriously a good tire goes a long way! They are Fairley quite, Handel the highway verywell. Most important when I hook my boat up now there isn't sidewall flex.

Awesome! I still haven't gotten mine off-road. Hopefully this weekend if it's not too cold. What psi are you running? ive set mine at 37.5 but not sure that's really the sweet spot.

Just slapped on a set today for the Z71 Burb. Only have a mile on them so nothing to say at this time.

I will say that they are a very good looking tire!

I'll write up a review after I've had them for a bit.

new sidewall looks great!

Looks good man, i went with 285's and they rarely rub at full lock with minor trimming.

I like the new sidewall design, about time it was updated. The center lugs look the same.

If you guys are running them in snow, please provide a review. I have the last generation ATs on another rig and they are terrible in the snow. From the specs, it is supposedly improved for snow traction.

These tires should be excellent in the snow. They have the snowflake on mountain designation on them which means they are a winter tire designed for extreme snow.
