They handle great. Mine are load range E but are nice and soft and I don't feel much of a difference from stock. I have the 255/80/17 BFG km2's
They are 33.3 tall and 10.5 wide

I don't have them but I was considering getting them. I wish they were just a little taller.

A new option for this size! Been looking for something around this size.

This is the new design off the standard BFG.

Shows 57lbs on the website.

I've got 255/80r17 km2's. They ride great, no issues with high speeds. I've put about 35000 miles on them and about dive in, would highly advise rotate rotate rotate. Could easily have gotten another 15000 miles or of them. But wore uneven, lack of rotating. Would definitely recommend

they don't list the 34x10.5 in a metric version but I imagine it would be a 275/75-17 or so. my 28/75-17 are listed on the tire as 34x11.5

The new BFG KO2 comes 34 x 10.50 /17, Heard good things, I'm considering it, but it's another $45/tire more than 285x70.
