Stock Goodyears throwing rocks

[Bronco#2]

I know this has been covered but these tires throw tons of rocks. I have a gravel driveway that’s 100 yards long and every time I leave home, I throw no less than 10 rocks until it quits. At some point I’m going to need to regravel my driveway.

im ready to change to some bfg KO2, but will that even solve my problem?

For those who’ve changed tires, do you notice a significant difference?

Is it the tires or is it a poor fender design?
I’ve had A/T tires for 20 years and have never had issues like this.

You definitely need mud flaps with the Bronco

I have them and go rhino steps to block the rocks. It sounds like I’m taking fire every time I get going

Get rid of the Goodyears and 98% of the rock chucking will go away.

What tire did you swap to where you saw a difference?

It's the tires, made noticeable by a vehicle that has the tires outside the body.

Changing tires is a good 90% reduction.

M/Ts will throw far less rocks but the ones they do throw will be bigger.

9-10 thousand miles and it reduces significantly...

Bfg km3 but I’ve never had any tire throw rocks like the Goodyears.

 

[Bronco#2]

That’ll take me 1-2 years. I’m probably not going to wait that long

We have had multiple K02s and they definitly dont kick up as much rocks.

I'll likely put a layer of finer stone on my 600ft driveway. I have the standard 2A modified now. Considering 1B stone or maybe asphalt millings as a top coat.
I may be able to improve the present surface by going over it with a compactor, that will push the larger stones into the surface, maybe making them less likely to be picked up by the tires.
I should have my BaseSquatch in a couple of weeks, I'll have to see how it goes.

Get some good mud flaps and rock on.
