Decided on pizza cutters! But not quite..

There was an awesome deal for 285/70/17s recently. I have been on the lookout for 255/80/17s with no luck yet. Do not think I have seen any 255/75/17s on sale either during my search.

I saw that and I believe it was for Wildpeaks. Definitely an awesome deal, but I'm looking to depart from that particular tire.

So much for “decided on pizza cutters” was thinking was 100% 255/75/17 now you 255/80/17 guys have peaked my interest!!!

Any deals out there for 255/75s ATs?

Costco has $150 rebate on Michelin and BF Goodrich. BFG has a KO2 C load in 255/75R17 but the price is stupid at $244/tire compared to $207/tire for oem size 265/70R17.

Check out tirebuyer.com. They have an 8% discount code for online purchases "ONLINEONLY8" (I think), and free shipping. Plus there was a $50 prepaid visa card when I bought mine, but not sure this is still active.

Saved me about $120 vs Discount Tire.

I notice that once you go from 255/75/17 to 255/80/17 the tires are automatically e load? Does this sound about right?

I've only seen 255/80/17 in E load. There doesn't seem to be a ton of choices in either 255/75/17 or 255/80/17 in the A/T world.

I wouldn't sweat an E load tire in this size for one second. If I hadn't known mine were E, I would have assumed they were either SL or C load. The ride quality is anything but harsh.

255/80/17 Falken Wildpeak AT3W. About 10k miles pavement and offroading on them and these tires are awesome. Excellent road manners including wet weather traction. Yes, all 255/80 are E load, because of the relatively tall sidewall, they need to be stiffer to avoid "rolling over". I had no trimming when I was on stock wheels- had to trim bumper, push fender liner, and remove mud flaps when I went to 17x8.5 -10mm wheels

265/70/17's for me. Mazama Open Ranges from Les Schwab. Very happy so far. I got them during the Founders day sale.
