Does anybody know the tread width on a 285/75R17 BFG KO2? I know their website has them at 11.3” wide but that’s on an 8” wide wheel. My wheel is 9” wide. I’ve heard each 1/2” equates to .2” of width either way. So does that mean if I mounted that tire on my wheel they would measure 11.7” wide??? Thanks

  I'm sure AWD, studded snows and carrying chains work in most cases
- How to Delete Brake Vacuum Pump (Video)

  Just thought i'd add how i did this delete with my truck. Better late than never I suppose. I purchased the PnP Tech Works Vacuum delete manifold (Vacuum Pump Delete Manifold - OEM Fitting – PnP Tech Works) which is just a spacer/adapter for the EGR w/ an added vacuum port. I have a catch can but I didn't want to tee off any fittings in case i were to need to remove it for whatever reason. PnP has a hose you can buy, but i found GM Delco 1761488 (25796198) per recommendation I saw in another thread. The factory hose clamps i felt were a little too loose so I used my own hose clamps (crimp style). you can scavenge both vacuum ends but i only used the brake booster side. Having 4wd, removing the bolts were a pain. I found the rear 2 bolts were easiest underneath using a u-joint socket adapter to rotate close to 90 deg and a bunch of extensions from underneath. May have made the other two bolts easier but I had them out by then. I have a 6.2 manifold. top of picture show hose barb with hose attached I rotated it back downward after this picture was taken as they were taken before I crimped the clamps.

  Why would Toyo give me recommendations for my truck/tire combo so they won't wear uneven then?

  Those psi values are too low for a 10 ply tire. Simple really.
