Picture Request (18" All Terrain Tires)

I'm looking to swap out my factory 18" Goodyear Wrangler SRA tires for some quality All Terrain tires.

Based upon reviews, it will probably be the Cooper Discover AT3, the Toyo Open County AT2, or the Nitto Terra Grappler. Still reading/wathcing reviews on snow traction, which is important to me.

 

To me, the factory 18" wheels (below) don't look half bad, so I'm not sure if I want to keep them, or fork out some extra coin for some slightly nicer looking 20" wheels and wrap them 20" All Terrains tires in 275/60R20. I'm kinda thinking that 20" are a good balance of Looks and Practicality for a full size truck.

 

For any one who has factory 18" wheels, and has wrapped them in All Terrains, please post a pic or two so I can see how it looks. Please mention what specific tires and tire size they are.

Got to use my Cooper AT3's in the snow the other day. They were great.

 

I have 20's on my truck though.

Go with the BFG KO2's and you won't be disappointed. They are some really bad ass tires (not on factory wheels, sorry). e6162801a91bd2b625036d0c05350d4c.jpg8c0d442dfc2d641aaf347cfc06155929.jpg

Good to know on the AT3 snow traction.

Even though they are 20's, I'd still like to see a pic if you happen to have one.

Thanks for the pics guys. They all look good.

 

robvas.....I'm kinda liking the 65 profile you have on your tires (285/65-18 BFG KO2's). They look a little less beefy than the 70 profile.

Thanks.....I kinda like how the AT3's don't have a super aggressive side wall. It gives them a more subtle street tire look, while having an All Terrain tread. I'm interested.

Yea that's why I went for them. The new BFG's were my next option, but the sidewall on them is too much.

Yeah.....the Coopers and the Nittos seem to have the least aggressive looking side walls. The BFG's and Toyo's look great, but seem to have sidewalls that are more aggressive looking, which is not what I want.

 

So, it's probably gonna be the Coops or the Nittos. I'm not sure what the cost difference is. This time of year, every tire shop in my area is packed from open to close and out of everything, so I'm gonna wait a few weeks before I go look at them in person.

Cooper st maxx 295/70r18

 

Is that leveled? I like the Coopers. Dunno if the 295/70 will fit with stock ride height though.

 

Edit: Nice cap, too! Wifey won't let me do cap. LOL

      Winter Returned

      By OnTheReel · Posted

      .30” of rain all month and it’s been weeks since that. “Mowed” our two properties today for the first time since July 2nd. It only took 30 minutes because all I had to do was level some weeds and saplings in a few problem areas. Everything else is dead.

      Shift to Park Message Warranty Claim

      By tjonesdfw · Posted

      Dealer reported a failed shifter module assembly so the whole shifter is getting replaced. Yet another premature repair… up to $12,000+ in extended warranty payout in only 5 years and 80,000 miles!

      2021 with Intermittent AC Cooling Issues

      According to the dealer it’s an internal leak/failure of the compressor.  Again, another failure that shouldn’t happen at only 5 years and 80k miles.  For some reason the compressors must be hard to come by right now, because the truck’s been at the dealer almost a week and they just located a compressor at another dealer several states away today.  We’ll see if this fixes the issue.

      Brake Bleed Procedure

      By needafix · Posted

      I'm not sure if this should be a reply on this thread or a new topic, let me know if it's out of place. This my first post. Thanks 85077522 - ACDelco GM Genuine Parts Brake Master Cylinders. Anyone else had to replace this brake master cylinder yet. I didn't do any brake work, it looks like new parts and I've had the truck for about 4k miles. When it started to throw codes I did the calibrations with a bidirectional scanner and got the codes to clear but they came back so i did the routine; base bleed, automated bleed and final base bleed. All that with Bosch ES16-32N fluid (please look it up). That seemed to fix it but 100ish miles later it failed again so I ran the same process but with a pressure bleeder this time and got the same results, fixed for 100ish miles. The original fluid looked bad and I thought I got most of it out. The codes; P25A2, C05B0-00, C2A1B. I can get them to clear but not for long. The C05B0 indicates a leak in the front circuit (which is bone dry) so I'm thinking of doing the bleed process on that front again today and I don't know if that's taboo to just do the front but at this point it seems like it's worth the try anyway. The new master cylinder/module unit is supposed to get here today. But now I'm pretty much convinced this install is over my head. I've called several shops and some mobile guys that I know but this thing is like radio active material scary wise. I did get 2 local shops say they should be able to do it, one says he has the SPS2 programing capability. And with the battery disconnected is there supposed to be pedal resistance, mine is to the floor, then if I pump it I can get some resistance.

      I wasn’t commenting on your post. Certainly wasn’t arguing. I was making an observation on my long term experience with supposedly proper length of driving for proper heat cycles. Works for me. Although I have seen water or vapor come out of exhaust when vehicles weren’t run very long and shut off. It’s very humid in the morning. Then hot and humid.
