Have any of you put them to off road use with the stock suspension? I would like to hear how they do with a little compression. If I am getting an E rated tire, be damn sure I will be putting it in a few situations requiring some flex.

Curious, prior to lift.., how bad if any, rubbing with the Trail Wheels?

I got them on 2015 trail, stock suspension, no rubbing at all. Parked next to exact same trail last week with stock wheels. Night and day difference appearance wise and I was a little taller.

I had zero rubbing issues prior. I tried all different turns in forward and reverse. I did not go off-road and compress the suspension. I'm sure I would have seen a little doing that.

Pricing From tirerack.com
Went to read the reviews on the new KO model at tirerack.com, and out of curiosity checked the pricing. It was surprising to learn the 275 size was cheaper than the stock 265. Even for the Load Range C, which is available in stock.
$206. per tire for 275's in Load Range E
$225. per tire for 265's in Load Range C
$254. per tire for 265's in Load Range E
$267. per tire for 285's in Load Range E.
