    I just bought a 2021 Wrangler Rubicon and will be putting larger tires on. I could sell you the BFG KO2 285/70/17 C-load tires at a good price. Only 200 miles on them so far..... let me know if you’re interested Jackie, no worries if you aren’t

    Mine takes 255/75-17. I don't know if they would fit properly. If they would fit, I might be interested.

    I just ordered the Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac. I looked at a side-by-side review against the KO2's and they ranked a tiny bit better at a lower price so I'm going to give them a try. Getting them installed next Saturday. I found it strange that some of the tires you guys recommended were not available (wouldn't fit) my jeep. But thanks for your input. It was helpful! See you on the trails soon!!!

    Duratracs are excellent Jeep tires and do really well in snow and wet roads. You will be happy with those!

    a lot of those websites are only going to show you stock options because of liabilities and such. most of the tires every runs here would not be shown as available options on discounttire.com or whatever company... but they fit and work fine in some cases people have to cut their wheel wells a bit if the tire is really oversized for the vehicle but i doubt anything recommended to you would have fallen in that category
