Post any pictures of any 285 tires. Im looking for some good mud tires that will last pretty good and would like to see what they look like.
| jliltd 05-13-2011, 07:16 AM I put some 285 65R18 load-range E BFG T/A KO's on my 2007 Tundra. That was a mistake as Tundra's are sensitive to tire weight. A load-range D would have been a better choice. Soured my enthusiasm for the A/T KO's which we have used for years on our farm trucks. jim65wagon 05-18-2011, 12:35 PM Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx, not a full mud tire but they're doing a nice job on road and the little off-road I've been since getting them. They've got about 1500 miles on them right now.... http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5145/5617427376_37d205e6b9.jpg (http://www.flickr.com/photos/jim65wagon/5617427376/) http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3025/5734144931_e7cabdd307.jpg (http://www.flickr.com/photos/jim65wagon/5734144931/) OBT 05-18-2011, 01:42 PM Nice, About how much do they run? jim65wagon 05-18-2011, 02:45 PM round here shops were asking 250-260 a tire...on TreadDepot they are 185 plus shipping...
