I just got a set for my 05, Les Schwab had them but they were hard to get though. In my opinion they are well worth the effort, it's a great tire!

Are those E rated? I looked on Toyo's site this is what I found for that size, maybe i missed it or it is not listed yet? 2755lbs seems like a low weight rating for a E tire. They also do not list max PSI, what do they say on the sidewalls?





LT285/70R17 121S

(33x11. 50R17) 301320 7. 5-8. 5-9. 5 49. 6 17 32. 76 11. 50 15 2755 636

Yes they are E-Rated and they also say 10 ply and 3750 lbs at 80 psi.

I have 4 new Toyo AT 325/17 sitting in my garage with stickers still on the treads. There right at the same hight and width, by 1/4", at the 315/17 BFG AT that I'm currently running.



Find the cheapest price on the net for these, and I'll let them go for 12% back of that.

Are these a brand new tire? I cannot find them listed anywhere with those ratings?

My guess is that Toyo has just now changed the 285's to an E-rated tire and I just happened to get lucky and get the E-rating. When I bought these I was expecting the D-rated tires. Much to my surprise when I got home and checked the air press. I then noticed the E-rating!



Hope this helps.



On Edit: When I was looking at the sale ad for these, they listed them as a D not an E rated tire.

Wow, a 3,750 lb loading rating with 80 PSI. If that's correct I guess I know what my next set will be. Great find guys!

I'm not trying to pick a fight here but why would you say "If that's correct"?

Ya, I thought about that after I looked at this thread again this morning. That was kind of itching for a response wasn't it . Just that I haven't seen the specs yet but it certainly doesn't mean that I don't beleive you either. I wish these mfr's would keep their websites up to date though. This reminds me of the 295 Nitto's. Their website doesn't list the correct load rating either (s/b 3,4XX lbs).



How do you like the ride quality?

 

[RankRam]

No problem... ...



Karl the ride and traction are great, I like them much more than the stock BFG's. I can't wait to hook up the 10k toy hauler and see how they do.



If I ever have time to wash the truck I plan to take better pics, while I'm at it I will be sure to get a close up pic of the sidewall ratings info. :-laf
