Looking for recommendations for new tires.

Picture proof that a 35" tire fits the Superduties OEM spare spot.

'nother reason the 10.5 width seemed like a better idea than a matching 12.5, more ground clearance.

That's another reason I like to run the 285/75R18, you can fit them in factory spare location. Most measure 34.5-34.8" tall x 11.2" wide so the height of most 35's but hits the in between of a 12.5 and skinny 10.5. The draw back to that size is it's not real popular so not all brands make it.

Stinkin holiday snow plows.

Had perfect snow for testing, 10 minutes ago. Already ruined. Will keep an eye open for slick roads.

Light crunchy snow. Dirt and gravel roads will be too grippy still.




Boring. Too easy.

Back on 35's. And it's good.

45/40psi seems decent. I'll try 35/30 later.

Your front wheel have a different offset than the front? It looks more dished. or is it just because of the center cap?

 

[MidOH]

All the same +18mm. Just the center cap, or lighting, most likely.

Falken Wildpeaks. I run them on my Suburban and my Silverado. Outstanding tires.

Good choice, I have the AT3s on my Suburban too!

I have been running the Maxxis RAZR. MT and AT

My last set of MT I got 40,000 miles, I thought that was amazing for a MT

Finally, some snow wheeling.

So far, these tires work fine. As you can see, they do pack up properly in fresh crunchy snow. And they do fling clear at speed.

My trucks completely empty today. So 2wd is meh, 4wd is awesome. I have no worries. Perfectly stable and reasonable.

Obviously the extra size provides more grip, until it doesn't. I'll air down to 35/30 for local trips.

Are these noisy? I think Matt's off Road Recovery uses these tires.

Initially very quiet. For an aggressive tire. As they age they get a hum like other tires. I run 315s at 28psi. I also rotate them all the time. They have been great for my purposes. I’m in the mountains of eastern az. It’s very rocky and also icy in the winter. They do well in the snow.

Kenda Klever Mt2.
35x10.5r17.

Keeping that for my spare on the oem wheel. Trucks on 35x12.5r18. But that's too wide for my spare wheel.

Went with the Mt2 for a spare, because the RT in that size, isn't E rated.

Should be a good pizza cutter for Jeeps and such.

I think I am going to run those 35/10.5/17 if I can buy them locally. That's a goldilocks tire size. no need for huge width here, but height is needed for rocky trails. I wish more companies made this size.

That's a good price for a tire in that size, I prefer to run a 285/75R18 on our 3/4 and 1 tons since they are about the same height but a little narrower and seem to fit the stock wheels better. I've never ran Kenda tires, most of our farm pickups are currently running BFG or Yokohama. Have you put those on rigs that see a lot of gravel? if so how do they hold up to rock chip? Some of our pickups spend about 75% of their time on gravel so I'm always looking for something that lasts better. The old Toyo M55 was the best thing for running gravel but unfortunately some years ago they changed the compound and don't hold up like they used to.

curious which Yokohama's are using.
