I am curious, is anyone running BFG AT's in the 265/70-17 size, without lift? and have a pic or three? On stock wheels?

I'd like to see what they look like, and if they are "too small"?\

I am considering these because they come in a "C" rating (the 285's don't) and I can use my stock wheels (I think).

Thanks!

 

I'm running them on my Sahara. Looks fine they are only about a half inch smaller. I also ran 285's before, but got rid of them so I could run the 265 C's. Much better ride and handling. Sucks they dont make more C rated tires. sorry no pics

 

I run BFG KM2's 285x70x17 without a lift and with no problemas.

 

Thanks SAS, I'd love to see a pic if you have one.
I agree, most of my miles are on the road, so I need to find a "C" rating.

 

Another good tire you can run that are good for the money, wear very well and have grat trac, are the Bridgestone Duler A/T REVO's. I had them on a ram 1500 and they were awsome! I would get them again but i am lifting for 37"s and they are not produced in that size. They handle grat in deep snow, rain and mud. They also almost nevet pick up stonse. I fish at island beach state park in NJ and nver had a problem in the sand ither. Here is a link to them, and you can check the reviews there as well.

Hey! I'm also in Army Aviation (15F). Currently in Aphganistan, and getting a JK 'X' when i get home. Take it easy!

 

As in all things, the exact size may be in for some debate. I see 265/70R17 as a 31.6 inch tire width around 10.4. My stock 255/75R17 SRA "minivan" tires are 32.1 with a 10 inch width.
I'm not trying to be a smart a**. But, if you really want to see what this would look like I would suggest a trip to your local dealership lot. Of concern, would be the width. Mine are narrower than what you are considering by almost a 1/2 inch. I've never disco'd the front axle yet and I still have rub & wear on my drivers side fixed metal brake line
