2004 LX470 100 Series Tire Question

[JB Sepulveda]

You are in good hands then. I wished I lived closer to them, that's who would do my work. I order all my parts from CO or Slee, both great companies to deal with. A buddy of mine who is a member here, went with 285 KO2's and he's loving them. They're a little more expensive but they're a great all around tire for road and trail. The General Grabbers have a little deeper tread and tend to pick up a lot of rocks but I would but another set if I was looking. I keep an eye on Ebay, Discount Tire Direct is always running some kind of special offer with free shipping. I can go back and look but I know I paid $640 for my set of Nittos, I think the 315 Grabbers were $680, and the KO2's were about $750, you're probably not going to beat those prices at a local shop. I have a local tire shop that I like doing business with but when I told them what I paid for the KO2's, they said they couldn't even buy them for that.

I'm looking them up right now. I'm lucky to be located just down the street from Kurt and his shop. Thanks again,

KO2s here, and holy crapola that 315 is a lotta tire on that LandCruiser. I ran 305/75/17 Terragrapplers on my 2010 Ram 1/2 ton that was leveled, and on my 06 1 ton and it was perfect. My Boss Runs 315s on his 1 tons.
I had 45,ooo miles on them when I got rid of the last truck. Still had some more left. Probably woulda got to 55 or 60.
Ive been told by a guy on TW that he gets 60,000 out of his Goodyear Kevlar M/Ts. If I woulda known that before I got the KO2s 2 weeks ago, I woulda gone with the Goodyear M/Ts.

With the feed back, I'm going to go with a 285 or 295. Now just working on which tire to get. I'll check out the M/T's tonight. Appreciate it.

Quick update. The build has started. Wanted to say thanks again for those who provided some input.

Installed these wheels - https://www.stealthcustomseries.com/products/f5 very happy with the look and feel. Went with BF AT/KO2 285/75/16 from the suggestions above.

Next week, the rig goes to Cruiser Outfitters. Stay tuned.
