I am lifted on the Eibach Pro Truck lift to keep the rake for when loading up and driving.

I did lose a couple MPG from the lift and tires. They are nearly 60 lbs each so you'll feel the difference.

When highway driving I still get 18-19 and occasionally 20 on flatter roads.

I wanted a slight size up and there was a sale for this size at the time. I'm glad I got this size because I didn't want to deal with doing a BMC just yet and I personally believe this is the size it should've come with.

Also, people ask if I'm on 285's until they look as the tires naturally run a little wider from what I've heard.

Me too.

I’d also give a consider to the Michelin LTX AT/2.

I must be a minority but having run 3 sets of ko2's between different vehicles I don't find them bad at all in the rain or snow. Duratracs get loud as they wear down or if they start to wear uneven and they have weak sidewalls.

Were your K02s in C load? I feel like the folks with snow/wet traction issues with their BFGs are running E load.

I have experience with load range C KO2's on a 5th gen.

It's all relative. They aren't as bad as the previous generations of BFG A/T's in the wet. But there are much better performing A/T tires in the wet than the current KO2's.

Mine Have all been on E load ko2's. Im not saying that there isn't better tires for rain or snow but I don't feel like they are anywhere near dangerous either. Some people act like ko2's and rain is equivalent to being on ice lol.

I'm running C rated Duratracs and they have performed well in the NE rain and snow as well as off-roading in VA. Great looking tire and come highly reamended from my snow plow work truck friends. I wouldn't say they are quiet but totally acceptable for the trade off so far. Not too loud at all for city driving, decent in the rain and great in the snow.

Considering I came from driving a Mazda3 with Super sports that were like glue in the rain I think the Duratracs are a fine truck tire with good attributes all around with a trade off of some noise and definitely not like my PSS in the rain. lol

In the end my roof rack makes more noise than the tires, lol

The factory TRD PRO Nitto Terragrapplers sucked. Went to BFG KO2 in Load C and were fine until 50% tread wear and wet traction was just plain dangerous. I'm currently Duratracs in load C and love them. Nearly the perfect tire, and of course, they are no longer available in load range C and I don't want the weight of E tires. Maybe I'm going to try out the toyos.

I know they are not necessarily listed by Goodyear but the Duratracs in load C are still available. Just bought a set in April.
