25 XLT FX4 2.7 TIRE UPGRADE

[danmoochie]

2025 XLT FX4 2.7. Tire swap options. Not sure I like the Wrangler AT stock tire. I'm going up to 265 but really want a more aggressive beefier tire. Thinking KO3? Thoughts or better suggestions?

I'm planning on going with these in a 275/75-18 once I get my front end leveled, on an 18x8 wheel with 41mm offset. I've been a BFG guy for my trucks/SUVs since my first 82 Ford Bronco, so this is gonna be a new thing for me

Using the stock rims.

I recently posted another thread about my nokian outpost nat’s on method wheels, my tires would fit on your xlt rims too.​

fwiw I’m pleased with the nokian; they’re definitely a lot more aggressive than the stock Goodyear tires, which isn’t saying much, but I haven’t off-roaded with them yet. Road manners are good, and if they’re half as good and predictable in foul weather as their nokian snow tires siblings, I’ll be happy (these are 3-peak snow rated).​

It's a big decision lol. I'm still shocked I can go from the 255 to 265 as I can barely put a finger between inside tire edge and Suspension. But guys doing it state no rubbing. Id love to see pics before and after lol
