Will 315/70/17 tires fit Black Diamond (Non-Sasquatch)?

[Hyfly]

Stock steelies on Nitto Trail Grapplers 315/70/17 with 2” 4WP level kit..only issue i came across was i had to remove the tailgate bump stops for the spare. Due to offset, there was no clearance for the bump stops. No rattle or anything, i actually like it closer to the gate.

Looks amazing. What are the bumper stops you refer to?

Gotcha. No rubbing or scratching issues I assume? That doesn’t seem like too big a problem.
think these tires will fit with just a 1” front level kit?

No issues. Theres plenty of room so 1” should work. Finding a shop to do an alignment is a challenge though. Your local chain shops (Firestone, tire kingdom, etc) do not have specs for broncos.

295/70/17 is also an option. A little smaller but in spec for the stock steelies (7.5 rim and 11.5 tire). I've had some puchback from tire installers in the past trying to squeeze tires on wheels too narrow for them.

Would look good and balanced imo without lift or just a 1" level. Might not even need to remove the crash bars

This looks great w/ the stock steelies IMO, nice job. So no issues with the 315/70s rubbing the control arm? This was a concern a few months back but I never saw where it was confirmed.

I want bigger than that. I may do a 285/75/17 if I decide against these.

No rubbing, no issues. It definitely looks really tight by the control arms but there’s room.

I went with 35x10.5 Kenda's on my BL stock wheels. No issues.

How do those compare to KO2 tires? I have loved the KO2s on my past trucks.

Honestly haven't noticed any change in ride or driving characteristics from the KO2's, MPG is the only change I've noticed.. They have done well in the snow and off road. Went to Holly Oaks on Sunday and had zero issues. After almost 3,000 miles on them, no complaints.

Is this leveled? Did you remove crash bars?

Yes, I installed the Zone leveling kit and removed the crash bars

That's the route I'm going on my non-SAS BL

Did you get it yet to put them on? I want to go with the 285/70 on my non-sas BL when it comes.

Unfortunately I have not...received built email on 12/7, still hasn't shipped out from MAP. EDD is now 1/13 but still no shipping confirmation.
