I'm down to my final choices for tires and I thought the C load ko2s in an LT 285 70 17 would be perfect for my application. However I see the P metric Falken Wildpeaks in the 285/70/17 actually have 117t as their load rating VS the lower 116Q of the supposedly stronger K02…?????
They both weigh practically the same with BFG at 50.3 vs 50.5 lbs for the Wildpeaks.
K02 has 15/32 tread vs 14/32 with AT3
Any input on this would be appreciated. I'm upgrading my tires because my crappy Goodyear Wrangler ATS tires failed on a rocky trail this weekend. I had them aired down to 18 PSI and the sidewall under load flexing too much failed. Those are 113 load rated p metric. There also was some dry rot to be fair as the tires are over four years old in the desert heat.
Trying to make a good decision here thanks!
