BFG AT KO2

how big are your tires on your truck what are your tire measurements. From ground to top of tire looks awesome btw

From the ground to top of tire it's 33.5" and it's just shy of 11" wide with the rims that I have.

Here's the pics of my truck (2015 All Terrain) I have the 285/65/20 with a 2.5" level in the front only. There is only a slight rub in the front when i lock the tires while turning. I have taken it on gravel, mud, and packed dirt and haven't had any issues with the tires being too large. I love them, been over three months so far, they have been awesome.

Here is where the tire rubs on the inside of the well. Not sure if it is because the All Terrain's come with that carpet crap. It would be easy enough to cut out, and the piece it is rubbing on actually is sagging forward a little bit and at an angle heading towards the tire. Not sure if you can see it that well in the picture.

This looks awesome. This is the 2nd truck on this site running these with a level w/o problems, good to see as these tires are what I'm planning to buy. A guy I know has these in 35x12.50x18 on a Ford and they are really good looking tires. Per BFG specs the 35's (18") are the same diameter as the 285/65/R20, but the 35's are 1" wider. Do you think they would fit on your truck if they were 1" wider? Would a 1.5" body lift help?

Got any pics straight on or from the rear? I'm curious if these 285's look narrow for their height.

So u say 33.5 and less than 11 wide. BFG says 34.5x11.5. What is the deal here.

Mojado · March 17, 2015

I'll try and get some more pics in soon. Took some today around noon and the sun and shadows blurred out the tires.

Not sure why BFG says 34.5", as that is what I was thinking they were too. Discount Tire even said they were going to come in just shy of 35". I did measure my the tires after it had sat there overnight, not sure If that makes a difference. Either way, 2.5" level with this size tire will fit with only minor rub. I love the way they look and I got all the tire I wanted out of them.

Did you measure them with the weight of the truck on them? I'm sure that would squat them at least 1/2", if not more. When you say the width was just under 11", were you measuring the tread itself, edge to edge? I think the mfg includes the sidewall ballooning in their specs but I'm not sure. I don't remember exactly but when I measured the tread on a 35x12.50R18 KO2 it was definitely under 12". Tires still looked huge up close though. I didnt think to measure height but wish I had now.

In for more pics, especially pics of the tread width.

diggman08 · March 17, 2015

pics. we are impatient here.

Mojado · March 18, 2015

I measured with the weight of the truck on, I had tires installed at 1000 miles and I haven't taken them off, I have driven little over 2000 miles only on them. For width I measure just the tread itself, not any of the bloat from the tires. Sorry for the delay in pics guys, been busy and I'm finally getting my exhaust done tomorrow! Flowmaster super 44, single in dual out, three inch all throught with two 2.5" pipes dumping out each side. But that's another story and another thread. Its night time so I hope the pics are alright. I'll try and get more tomorrow once I get my truck back.

Mojado · March 18, 2015

The full front and full rear pics aren't showing the tires clearly. I can post those tomorrow's. Sorry for keeping you waiting ??? it makes the heart grow fonder. If you are waiting for my pics to pull the trigger on tires I'm sorry, just go for it though! You know they'll fit, it'll be awesome. If you put wider tires on stock wheels you will more likely have more rub. But taller may start to have rub issues in back without actual lift or something, right? I could be wrong.

Just had the KO2's put on, 275/65R20 with a 2" BDS level. No rubbage.

diggman08 · April 21, 2015

perfect size tire for that lift IMO

higgy243 · April 22, 2015

I put the same tires on my truck, traded the goodyears in on them , discount tire gave me 100 bucks a tire for them, think i ended up around 800 for the new set. I have always been a BF fan. Hope these hold up like the other ones. FYI i put on 265/60 / 20 with no rubbing before my level kit. probably could go bigger now that i have the level kit on it

Alfieboy · April 23, 2015

Just had installed AM AR910 and BFG AT KO2 's (275/70 18). measure about 33 or so tall....reused OEM TPMS sensors........truck has the RC 2.5 level kit......the 4 OEM z71 wheels & tires for sale if anyone interested in them...... ( no tpms sensors )

Alfieboy and Mojado,

How does the width of the 275s and 285s look from the front/rear view? I've had 275s before and they looked fine from the side, but too skinny from the front/rear. Got a couple of Tundras with 285s on Motos in the parking lot and they don't look much better for width. I'm hoping the KO2s are wider in person

I kept wondering the same thing. There are a billion pics of them on this f150 thread. My tires should be here today. I really wanted the 35x12.50-18s but I dont want to risk ordering wheels and tires just to find out they wont fit without more lift than I want to do.
