New Tires

Well im going to be pulling the trigger on new tires. i dont have money for rims to right now. but right now i have 255/65/17 Hankooks and well yall all know how good they are. im going to be trying to fit 265/70/17 Nitto Grapplers or maybe BFG's. Leaning more towards The nitto's for the price. im hoping they wont rub and atleast fit what do yall think? Nitto or BFG's?

Both great tires, Nitto's terra grapplers will be a bit smoother that the BFG all terrains.

I dont think you'll have an rubbing issues with that size. When I bought new tires a few years back I sold my stock FX4 rims and tires(275x65x18) to my uncle and they fit on his 2wd.

I would go with the BFG's personally

x2. Very long lasting tires. They also performs incredibly well offroad compared to other ATs, plus they look pretty aggressive.

I have bfg all terrains in a 285/70/17 and so far after 4k miles they honestly show any wear at all. I would go with those over any other all terrain.
