Thank you!  just put them on a few weeks ago and love them. Not that the standard DL8 mirrors were bad but these towing mirrors offer so much more visibility and love the look.

Congratulations, they’re a hot commodity especially in these forums. [emoji106][emoji2532]

Any Rub? I like the look of how tall the tire is.

I zip tied the wheel liner back but they still make contact on the sway bar at FULL lock. My 295/55R20 Coooper STT Pros rubbed the on the upper control arm pretty good so nothing different

How’s the rubbing? I tried that wheel and tire combo at 3” of lift and it was hitting the cab mount behind the fender liner.

Just left the tire shop - will be going with 2” and 285/65/18 ko2s or 2.5” with 295/70/18 ridge grapplers. Tomorrow is decision time!

IMHO, Because I’ve had both on the same truck. The Ridge Grapplers are much more rugged looking than the KO2’s, very much make the look of the truck. The KO2’s seem to have a bit softer ride to them versus the Ridge Grapplers. Another thing is that the Ridge Grapplers are bigger tires and will take up a bit more room, 1/4”.

My experience with the Ridge Grapplers, over curbs, curb rashes, zero sign of anything. The KO2’s will show everything. That’s why I’m thinking they’re of a softer compound.

I had the KO2’s on for a few days before returning them due to vibrations at high speeds. KO2’s are well known to have some of those issues in the Jeep forums.

Oops, almost forgot, think you can get the KO2 275/60/20’s in a C rating.

    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
