BF Goodrich All Terrain replacing Stock Generals

[DENNISD]

Apologies if this topic has already been covered, but I'm considering replacing the tires on my new 2024 Tacoma Sport I-Force Max.


With only about 500 miles on the truck, Discount Tire has offered me $60 per tire for my factory-installed General Grabber tires as a trade-in toward a set of BF Goodrich All-Terrain KO 3 tires.


I understand the T/A tires may be a bit louder and provide a slightly firmer ride, but I believe the difference will be minimal. Please feel free to correct me if I’m mistaken.


I’m also considering upsizing the tires to 285/70R18, up from the current 265/65R18 General Grabbers.


I’m aware this change will affect speedometer accuracy.


My questions are:
– Will the larger tires rub?
– Has anyone here made a similar switch and ended up regretting it? I'd really appreciate hearing your experience.

Damn! They didn't offer me anything for my tires. I could've sold them for probably double that but I decided to donate them to help someone in need who was able to sell them for what 300 to someone in an older Toyota that had bad rubber. So that way I helped two different people out.
I hated those tires. To me they're deadly on wet roads.
Wet breaking, cornering, stopping on wet roads are my biggest concern with tires and I absolutely love the Cooper ROAD + TRAIL AT.
You can search for the threads for that or any other topic with the search option and the top right hand corner.
These tires rock and Cooper had a $60 rebate plus discount tire gave me another discount though I forget what it was.
They're also wet and keep me from spinning when I'm backing up a slight grassy hill into my parking spot at my house.
I had to use 4 x 4 with those generals to do the same thing I can do in 4 x 2 with these tires.
Check out the reviews for both tires at Tire Rack.
I never buy from tire rack because I can usually find better deals such as these Cooper's I bought from discount.
good luck with them whichever way you go.

I’m running 265/70/18 KO3’s. Other than the weight, I have no complaints so far.

I was thinking about stepping up to the wider width 285 tires. Do you think that is unwise?

As far as the weight, are you more concerned with the mileage or steering or both?

Thanks in advance,
