BFG TKO2 Load range D vs E.

[simplemind]

Any idea about the difference in ride quality and fuel consumption difference in these two tires, D and E (in the same size)?

nothing that you could calculate.... I went from factory to E and might have lost .5 mpg

Holy Christ on a cracker, how many times are we going to do this thread?

OP, the difference in mileage will be minimal. The difference in ride quality is entirely subjective, you're going to hear answers across the entire spectrum from "no difference" to "OMG IT'S TERRIBLE E RANGE TIRES WILL RAPE YOUR WIFE AND EAT YOUR KIDS". The only answer that is useful is yes, the E range tires will ride different, and the only way you're going to find out out how different is to buy a set.

As many times as it takes! :evil:

Yeah I know it's subjective, but I don't mind opinions. I ordered what I thought were D tires. Didn't look until they were mounted....yes, E tires . Started to panic, but after driving on them they don't seem that much different than the stockers as far as noise and ride quality go. And, that's at 50 psi. Not sure how low I can go, but probably just leave it.
It's pretty amazing how quiet they are now. That may change in 20-30k though.
