BFG K03 vs Duratrac RT?

[tk1700]

I've had the DuraTrac RT's close to 2 years now. No complaints at all. I agree with all the positive comments previously posted. I've used them in deep snow, mud, wash board roads, mild trails and rocks.

I've narrowed it down to these two tires but I can't decide on which 285-70-17 to get...anybody have insight on either they want to share?

Get the DuraTrac.

Discount Tire does have them, and they are the Ford variant made for the Bronco Badlands, I believe. I’ve had them on my Jeep for the last 3,000 miles and so far they’ve been a noticeable upgrade over the K02, especially on wet roads. I also notice not as many rocks stuck in the tread if that matters to anyone. So far they ride great, and are pretty quiet.

they clearly stated that they could get the 285 C's in just 1-1.5 days

When I was 35’s shopping late 23 the newer KO2 “T” Ford variant’s tread was .6” narrower than the older “S”, also 2 lbs heavier and slightly more expensive. A trend ?

Funny that you say this. I just bought some 315/70r17C Territory M/T tires for my Wrangler and they are 0.5" narrower on the sidewall and 1.5" narrower on the tread (measured at the tread shoulder) as compared to my Duratrac 315/70r17D that i use in the winter.
I think the Territory are also spec. for the Bronco.

The Duratrac tires get so noisy after about 15K, that one had better wear ear protection.

Ranger Raptor 2025 came with BFG KO3 285/70/r17 C rated as stock tire. So i would bet that size is already in production and should be available (otherwise how can the OEM assure they are able to source replacement when you have a puncture?). You could even score a take-off from someone who upgraded tire size.

Thanks everyone...so after all that drama I pulled the trigger on a set of MT BB AT's in 285-70-17 SL load rating. It was peer reviews, simple economics and a decent rebate that did it! And they're only 49 lbs each...sorry, I'll go crawl in a hole!

just gotta say how nice these MT Baja Boss AT's ride on the street / hwy...those OEM Firestone M/T2 were horrible by comparison. My Jeep feels like a new one again...

Im glad you like them! They’re pretty awesome! I went from the nexen HT tire to the mt bb at and it was a completely different jeep. And it seems to like them more than the HTs cause my fuel mileage improved after adding them. And I don’t drive any different now than I did before getting them.
