Has anyone had experience with these two sizes BFG K02?

LT275/55/20 - Load Range D
&
LT275/60/20 - Load Range D

Im looking for an LT All-Terrain tire.
I had the LT275/55/20 - Load Range Dtires on my 2018 and while quiet on road and great in the snow.... I hated the stiff ride.. it made my truck ride like a wheel-barrel. I took them off and went back to the original GY Wranglers.

Now im wondering, if going to the LT275/60/20 - Load Range D would be a better in between..... since there is added sidewall, it should ride better but less stiff.

Thanks

I used to have BFG ATs in load range E on my old Sierra and I agree, the ride is atrocious. I also found that they were terrible on ice and I got into a nasty accident (my fault really) because of the poor traction. I'm currently running Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs and I like them much better.

E tires are only really needed if you're towing loads with a very heavy tongue weight or filling the box to (or beyond) capacity and squishing your existing tires. If you're not, always go with a lower load range.

How are the Duratrac in terms of noise levels? I like the fact that the Duratrac in the sizes i mentioned are not LT, so they maintain the ride quality... however i hear road noise is not its strong point

I run Duratracs on my Raptor and Bronco. They are definately louder than KO2s but better in pretty much every other way, wet pavement, mud and snow.

+1 On every account with Duratrac on previous F150

Honestly I don't really hear them, although I have a Flowmaster muffler that is louder than any tire I've ever heard. When the window's down I can't tell if the tires are making noise.

You are going to notice little improvement moving from 55 to 60, but the extra sidewall will help.

Unless you're towing heavy or need the core durability for debris, I'd suggest getting out of LT tires entirely, especially with the reduced sidewall of 20 inch tires. You can get 20" XL Ridge Grapplers. XL is a p-metric with stronger sidewalls, ride is between p-metric and LT-C

I second that.

I’m quite happy with my Cooper AT3 4S in 275/60 20.
