Yessir!

Updated my original post with some new notes, but here's the pics of the 275. Really pleased with them.

Iā€™m thinking of modding my Bronze Oxide Off Road to be a poor manā€™s Trailhunter. I like everything about the Trailhunter but the price and snorkel.

On the fence between Nokian Outpost nAT 275/70/18 and 295/70/18 ā€” they weigh 54 and 58.4 pounds, respectively. The 295s weigh less than your KO3s so they might be fine for drivability, but they will probably rubā€¦ is the ā€œrubā€
Are you able to get them from Discount Tire? If so, they have a satisfaction policy where if you dont like them, just bring them back and switch for what you want, just pay the labor and difference in tire cost

Discount Tires put them on today. No issues with rubbing. Iā€™m not noticing much of any difference in sound compared to the stock. Sounds the same. The ride feels improved after an afternoon of driving around and I definitely feel more planted. Itā€™s rainy season here and the stocks were god awful. First thing I took notice of this afternoon was that stark difference.

Anyway, other than a leveling kit which is on the way, I donā€™t think Iā€™m going to do much else.

These look great! Definitely the route I'm going to go down as well. For my purposes, I don't need 2.5+ inch lift, at most a leveling kit.

I went by DT to look at the KO3s in 275/70/18 and they are surprisingly so much bigger in diameter than the stock wranglers. I put them right up against my rim. But the width looks the same. They are very nice tires. 285s must be massive.

lol yeah man. They were just absolute monsters. Highly recommend the 275 over the 285.

Looks like the R18s only come in E rating. C is available on 17s. Anyone know differently?
Comments on ride between the two ratings on KO3s?!
