New BFG's 295/75/16's All Terrains

[Archive]

I went from 285's to 295's. They barely touch the aftermarket mud flaps at full lock. With 800 lbs in the bed these tires and 4hi the 13 inches of snow we got yesturday was non existant. I really like the All terrains (oh by the way did I mention I got 61000 miles out of the 285's with only 1 rotation they were down to 6/32 from 17/32) The 33. 5" dia should slightly help out the 4. 10 rear end.

Did the spare fit?

Craig,
BFG's are a great choice for tire wear. They use a tougher compound in the rubber and they wear better as a result. What was the load rating of the tires?
