Ridge Grapplers any day.......if you go with the KO2 the really look at sizes in person, they are much more narrow then they claim and often look too skinny.

Default Here are the RGs





Extremely quiet. Far exceeding expectations thus far. My two inch ProComp level kit leaves me about 3/8" nose high. And I haven't loaded about 150 pounds of routine cargo in the back. Maybe add a block?

This is true! The ridge grapplers are more squared off. While the ko2's bulge out in the sidewall and than narrow on the actual tread

Looks killer! Do you have a level? If so what size? What is your tire size? Your rims are 20x10 correct? Mpg hurt at all?

305/55/20, 2" ProComp level. 20x9 Fuel Vapor 569 wheels. Very smooth. Delighted thus far.

I was slightly nose high after adding my Fox Coilovers. I swapped the rear blocks with 2" AutoSpring blocks. I have about .5" of rake now and I'm really happy with it.

Looks great! Definitely will add these to my list for next time. I went with the KO2s in 285/65-20. Definitely a harder ride which I expected. They are inflated to 50-52psi which was the recommendation from BFG but I know a lot of guys here run them 42-48 psi? Wonder if the treadwear would be worse because of that?

As for block, I also added a rear block to take the nose high look out of mine after the level. Helped a bit.

Oh, as for fitment, I had to trim the inner part of my front mud flaps cause they were rubbing in reverse. Have a intermittent rub now, I think on the driver's side crash bar. Barley notice it. So not overly concerned.

Enjoy the tires!

Yes the Fuel Vapor Wheels have the 20 millimeter offset.

Did you have to do any trimming? Have you maxed out the suspension (while off-roading) and do they rub? How's your mpg's doing with the level and tires?

Sorry about all the questions, just a killer truck and want to make mine look similar
