Anybody on here have any pics of what 225/75r16 Mud Terrains on thier KJ.

They must look wider then AT 225's. I don't want to regear so this is basically the only option I can find in a siped M/T (Cooper STTs). Would these tires look way to small with an OME HD lift?

I would be grateful for any advice, pics.

Thx

I think they would look small with a lift basically about the same size as stock, why do you want to stay with a smaller size?
a 245-75X16 is 30.7
would do well with the lift

Yes they will look to small. I feel my 235/75/16's look way to small! Go with the 245/75/16's and you shouldn't have to regear! Good choice on the coopers stt's ive heard nothing but good thiings about them.

These are old shots from when i got 225/75/16 Destination MT's. I only kept the tires for about 200 miles. They were too stiff and noisy for a daily driver, so i replaced them with 245/70/16 Revo's.

I will have the exact tires/size you are asking about mounted on my truck next Tuesday by a fellow LOST member (Thunderbirdjunkie...thanks a bunch!!!). I will try to remember to take pics and post.

My Revo's are doing just fine. Wish they had as much height as an equivalent 245/75/16 MT, but other than that, I have had no issues.

They are quiet, get good fuel mileage, good wear, good rain and snow traction. I was able to keep up with all the MT's on a few rides in the mud, they cleared almost as good as the MT's. So far so good.

What??? I can't hear you over the drone of my tires :lol:

I keed, I keed.

I replaced General Grabber AT2's (235/70/16) with the BFG's...the AT's would NOT have made that. I am unlocked with a Daystar puck lift.

FWIW, I had trouble up that same hill and dug two biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig holes with my 245/75-16 MTR's and a coil lift. those BFG MT's impressed the hell out of me today.

Please keep this thread on topic and free from any more flaming and bashing. If you don't have pics of tires to post up or helpful comments to make then please move on.

Thanks.

i thought 225s would look really bad but they are not as bad as i thought. im sure they get better gas mileage than my 245s. not sure i would go that way but if its more of a DD then maybe
