As you can see, there is no reason to keep the stock van tires. I went with BFG KO2 275/70/R18.

Looks like a nice tire. I plan on wearing out the stock tires before replacing them.

Looks good. Thinking about the same thing in a year (when I have one).

I was thinking about this, because we'll get like 50 bucks per tire for selling them... But I believe the life of the tire is 80K miles.... thats like 5-8 years of driving with the stock tires.

Hehehehe. I do 80K a year on my work truck. My OBX hasn't left the garage since early October after getting it in August. Less than 2K on it

As you can see, there is no reason to embarrass yourself driving around with stock tires. ;-) I went with BFG TO2 275/70/R18. The ride is smooth and quiet, and I couldn't be happier with this decision.

Got any head on photo comparisons❔
This is my exact build. Love how you kept the stock wheels. I am considering doing this, as well. Good to hear the ride is still quiet.

Great look! Did you add a level or just swapped out the tires
No level yet, just a tire swap. I'm going to do the 1” level soon though.

Not the same but I plan to swap out the 35" Goodyear Territories before it leaves the dealership for Falken Wildpeak A/Ts. The territories throw stones like crazy.

The stock tires were killing the ride quality (and the overall look). Personally, I went with 285/70/17. No lift/level yet. No rubbing issues. The ride quality is night and day. The better/bigger tires eat up the smaller bumps, along with a C load range. OP, nice looking ride.
