Hello All

Im on the hunt for some tires. i think i have my mind set on going with 285/55-20. I'm gonna level the truck just not sure what kit I'm going to use (NMT 2"). So anyways, i read somewhere here that keeping a low tire range will have a smoother ride? is there really a noticeable difference? All the All-Terrain tires I've searched are load range:E except for the BF T/A KO2

Im curious what tires you guys are running and what your opinions are vs a stock set up

TIA

The 275-55-20 KO2 comes in Load Range D. The stiffer the sidewall the stiffer the ride for the most part. So a higher load rating and lower profiles contribute to the stiffer ride. Some don't mind, some don't notice, some don't care, some mind and care a lot! Such is pretty subjective.
