Hey folks- Time for new tires on the KK. It's got LT 225/75 R16s on them right now. There are lots of options in this size: BFG AT KO Kumho KL61 TBC Wild Country XTX Sport Michelin LTX AT2 Hankook DynaPro ATM Firestone Transforce AT I would like to go to a bigger size - the consensus seems to be that you can't go bigger than a 245/70 R16 without a lift. This narrows the options down to: BFG AT KO at $234/tire here in BC, Canada - This is what I am running on my Comanche but it's a little aggressive for all the street driving we do. I have two questions for the forum: Does anyone know of another LT 245/70 or 235/75 R16 All Terrain with Mountain/Snowflake rating? Is anyone here running a 245/75 R16 or 215/85 R16 on a KK without a lift? Note: I realize these tire sizes are 1" taller than stock; love this tool: http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp Minor rubbage/scuffage at full lock/articulation and/or pinch weld flattening would be OK |

Duratracs for the win. I have them in 225/75R16 and they are great in all weather conditions, especially snow. Two friends of mine also have them on their Tacomas and love them. |

I found this site really helpful for finding tires that come in specific sizes http://www.1010tires.com/tiresizecalculator.asp |

+1 for DuraTracs They don't come in those sizes. Your choice would be 225-75-16, or 245-75-16. For other sizes I'd recommend Cooper tires. They have the S/T, S/TMaxx |

Duratracs. Just make sure they're balanced properly and rotated on time!!! Ask me how I know.
