+1 for bfgoodrich. I have the t/a ko and after 50k they still had about 1/3 thread left. Had because I replaced them with new just because. Hexus' tires also have great wear resistance. I one am sold on this tire. Noise wise, it's not as quiet as a street tire, but you can still listen to the radio at decent volume and have a conversation with somebody without yelling. But considering that I've never had a flat with off-road tires, and I pull bent or broken screws and nails from them and they don't pierce through, it's also worth the convenience and peace of mind of not having to replace a tire due to flats...
Can they work without lift or spacers or you have to get lifted? thanks
Well, it all depends on how big you want them
. I don't have my crd lifted and they fit without issues with 245x70x16 size. Before replacing front coils I had a very small rubbing on the plastic inner fender liner on max turn, but that went away as the tires got worn a little. This slight rubbing occurred with stock rims, going custom rims with bigger offset would eliminate rubbing for good, at least with bf Goodrich ta ko I have, not sure about other tires. But fyi, the rubbing is so insignificant that shouldn't be a deterrent in going with that size, you only notice a low squeak and see the inner cover very clean where rubbing occurs, and it only occurs when max turning, how often you do that... May be an issue only if your front coils are super-sagged, like maybe less than couple inches between top tire and fender, but even that low, it will only rub on max turn. Rear fitment does not pose issues at all for this size.
