Anyone placed BF Goodrich Ko2 tires on OuterBanks?

[BigJ2]

I sold the entire package 5 rims/tires/sensors with 2100 miles on them for $700. Seems near me the stock OBX rims are plentiful for sale. And I just wanted them gone. I listed for $1000 or best. Meaning my upgrade to BL rims/tires and sensors cost me $500 they had 1500 miles on them.

I got rid of my wheels and tires (minus sensors) for $650. I too just wanted them gone.

I kept my wheels but Big O Tires gave me $150 for the four tires (more likely one of the guys there bought them). They had 70 total miles on them. I think you could sell for more, but I didn’t want to hassle with it and recent back surgery prevented me from even lifting them up. So I was happy to just get the $150 credit. But I’d think you could get $500-$700 out if the wheel/tires together. ( I see several other OBX wheels/tires out there). Check “Offer Up” and Facebook Marketplace. I sell on Craigslist also, but for some reason that avenue has slowed down a bit.

Somebody had mentioned there’s a softer version of the BF Goodrich.
how can you tell?
My tire guy only has one listed.
thanks.

My Bronco should be delivered any day and I still can't decide on the lift or not. I'm going to put 275x70xR18 on the stock wheels and I know I don't NEED a lift. Just not sure if its worth it or not. I've looked at so many pictures and it seems if I do one I need to do a 2" lift to make it noticeable and not just a leveling kit. I also like the look of those that did no suspension and just swapped the tires. Tell me what to do...

I have the same issue. So hard to know what to do.

Get a 2” lift with 34s. That’s what I’m doing — had the same concerns you did

I put 275/65R18 KO2s on my HPR Outer Banks, along with a fresh set of unpainted fenders:

I didn’t go larger in diameter - just width - so I can keep everything calibrated well and not lose any safety features or have incorrect speed readings

With 275-70R18, I would just leave it for a month or two and see how you like it. I saw a non-Sasquatch at the dealer yesterday with 315-70R17 no lift kit and IMO, it just needed a spacer leveling kit for the fronts. All of us have different tastes on how much space we want around the tires. To my eye in person, this one had plenty of space around the rears. Those that do a lot of off roading would have likely ordered the Sasquatch version that would sit another 1.25" or so higher than this one.

Based on my research including the great info and pics on this thread and others in the forum, I’m planning on keeping the OBX wheels and replacing the tires with BFG KO2 275/70r18 with no lift and retaining crash bars. If I later decide I want a lift I’ll add then. Should get my ride in the next week or two and will post pics then.

So do you have 2 inch lift ?

No lift, just wider tires, 275/65R18

Looks great. How you find the ride over stock tires ? Any louder ?

Haven't taken it on the freeway yet, but so far I couldn't tell a difference on regular roads noise-wise. Definitely a bit more stiff but not too much so, make sure to check tire pressure when you take delivery because my dealer overinflated the tires on the originals and the replacements (40 psi was pretty rough, 35 is recommended and much better)

Hate the passenger tires on my 2021 OuterBanks.
looks like i can place Ko2s on the 18 inch rims . Looks like it has a much more aggressive tread. And would look better ti me Anyone done this and have pics?

275/70/18
