How does the Nittos compare to the KO2s? I love my KO2s, they're smooth and quiet for a LT tire.

I used to have Duratracs on my Ranger & Wrangler. Nice tire, too.

The Nitto's are definitely louder than the KO 2's, but damn they look good.

Thanks, looks really good on your truck.

Was totally going to go with that size but started thinking only an inch bigger than my stock ones wouldn't make much of a difference, especially with my 3'' rear blocks

Unfortunately the only sizes close to what I'd want and would work with my stock xlt 17 rims in the ko2's are the 285/70/17's (which I think would be to short) or the 34x10.50r17 (think they'll look to narrow) So now I'm thinking about the toyo Mt's in 285/75/17 or the 295/70/17 (if 295 will work with my rims without rubbing on UCA's)
They are just so damn heavy and I have 3.31 gears, but probably just gonna deal with the power/mpg loss and get the toyos. I ran them on my last truck and really liked them. Nitto's are nice too

Actually, my 285/70R17's are really wife. I think they would look fine with your lift. Even if I raised mine 3 inches I would keep these wheels.

Very nice rig! Same color I have, mine's a 2015 Supercab though. Same rims as me even, gives me an excellent idea what my truck would look like with some nice meaty tires under it. Enjoy!
