Question BF Goodrich All-Terrain TA KO Tires?
I just got a 2004 F150 Lariat 4x4 with LT275/65R 18 Goodyears and I want to put BF Goodrich All-Terrain TA KO LT285/65R 18 on them. I was wondering if anyone out there knows if this will hurt the truck any (speedometer, ground clearance, etc)

It will not hurt anything. You are putting on a slightly taller tire therefore ground clearance is increased accordingly. Your speedo will be off but not by very much.

Your tires will be 1/2 inch taller.

When your speedo reads 60 mpg you will actually be going 61mph

Go for it!

Oh yeah, go for it! Beautiful tread design, great tire, 50,000 miles warranty (on getting stuck), do it and give us pics!

Please note that BFG says at least 8" wide rims. The rims that come with the truck are 7.5".
