Wheel/Tire Upgrade Photos

Fitted my other wheels today, 33x12.5r17 They have the same 35mm offset as my other set but there’s about 20mm more poke due to the wider tyre… They ride well..

Switched over from the stock 255/70r18 BFG K02’s to 275/70r18 Yokohama Geolandar AT4 G018’s. More than capable for the off roading I’m going to do, rocky and sandy, not much mud. Better in town behavior, and (hopefully) better packed snow driving. K02’s randomly let go of grip without warning on packed snow highway driving. No good! Very good off road though. If you’re wondering, the siping stops short of going all the way to the edge of the tread blocks, but does seem to be full depth when I stuck a pick down inside and compared to the tread depth on the outside of the tread block.

Stock 18’s, 255/70r18, are 32.1” diameter, with 7” sidewalls. The 17” option, 265/70r18, are 31.6” diameter, with 7.3” sidewalls. The new Yokohama’s, 275/70r18, are 33.4” diameter, with 7.6” sidewalls. The tread depth is deeper and more aggressive than K02’s, without overdone sidewall tread. I’ve never liked the look of super aggressive sidewalls, IMO.

They look great - How is the noise level?

A little less than the K02’s. Still present, but more muted. I think the single pitch shoulder lugs are doing their thing instead of heavily staggered shoulder lugs.

Also surprising because the k02’s are D1 rated and the Yokohama’s are E1. They feel much smoother. Both run at 38psi.
