265/65/18 aggressive tires ?

That's stock size on any 4x4. I have BFG all terrains not overly aggressive but here's a pic.

265/65/18 = 31.5x10.2" so it's unlikely anyone will have a real aggressive tire in stock height and width, people usually opt for a larger size.

275/70/18's will fit with a level kit, or 275/65/18 will fit on stock height (if you're not wanting to go much larger than stock). There's a lot more options for aggressive tires in those two sizes than the factory 265/65/18 size.

I just put a set of 275 70 18 Firestone Destination MT's on my stock Z71 today and it barely rubs the plastic at nearly full lock...I will have my RC 2.5 lift on next week but love the tires they really fill out the wheel wells!

I'm running 275/70/18 BFG AT KO's on my '14. It didn't rub before I put the leveling kit on, and it sure doesnt rub now. They ride awesome. The pic is before I added the RC 2" leveling kit

So the new body style trucks can fit a 275/70/18 without a level? That's pretty cool. Do you think they would have rubbed before the level if you had mud flaps?

Yep 10ply e rated LT tire. 3ply sidewalls

how do they ride? They have always been my favorite. But they aren't recommended for 1500 trucks? According to the BFG website and my local discount tire. I'm thinking of going with them on my 18" wheels.

They are an LT tire so yes they are rated for a 1500 LT. LT meaning light truck.

 

They are a good balance of everything in a tire. Don't expect them to ride like a summer radial and you'll be pleased. Very good thread wear on these tires as well, I've put about 50k KM on the last set with regular balance and rotation.
