Tire Upgrade on TRD Off-Road Premium: BFG KO3 285/65R18 with white lettering

[TXTaco85]

Just swapped out the stock Falkens for these BFG KO3 285/65R18. I'm really digging the white lettering too! No rub and no mods needed.

Looking good! Definitely like the white lettering on the KO3s, really complements the truck.

How’s the mpg and performance with the heavier k03?

Not sure just yet, but I think I'll be able tell the difference after a couple weeks of the usual routine. Will check back in

@TXTaco85 any updates to share on your new tires? Affects on performance and MPG? Do you have more pictures?
Thanks!

 

[TXTaco85]

I think the MPG is slightly worse but not too bad at all. The ride seemed a bit stiffer during the first few days, but it's very nice now.

No new pics at the moment, but if there's an angle you would like to see, I can try to take some.

Awesome to hear! Sure does look good. Would be nice to see an angle that shows some of the tire width !

Not too too beefy but def an upgrade over the stock. Will post more pics once I get the Westcott lift installed

What load rating are the tires? (Looks great by the way!)

I've got the exact same truck as you and have been debating on that size with the stock wheels. Thanks for sharing, looking forward to following your progress as I decide what to do with mine!

Thanks!

They're D1:

A load range "D1" tire is an 8-ply tire designed for heavier loads and can handle a maximum pressure of 65 PSI.
