New Tires On the Way

New Tires On the Way
I have have been accused, and rightfully so, that I am incapable of leaving well enough alone.
I just could not take the stock BFG Rugged Trail tires for my rig. I have some BFG AT/KOs on order. They should be here in a few days. Discount Tire is giving me $200 trade for the Rugged Trails.
They had a Perelli AT for a quite a bit less and I struggled trying to decide but in the end I went with the BFGs. I also had a tough time deciding what size to get but finally went with a 275/70-16, a ittle wider and a little taller than the stock 265/70.

Hey Bigstew, let me know how they fit. That would be interesting to know as the damn edges on my truck are starting to feather off and I may be in the market soon for new tires (and yes alignment is correct, checked by two different dealers and myself).

Jim65wagon, I thought I was obsessive, not fanatical!
Mohamed, I hope the tires get here and are installed on Wednesday. From what I could find out the fit should be fine. But you never know for sure until they are installed. I will let you know.

The main concern I have is on full lock turn, wheither or not it will hit the fender flares, I have the TRD package on mine. Let me know, thanks!
