Road noise is pretty low, but you do get a very mild drone, as compared to the stock tires (when new). I only got 14K miles out of the stock junk Goodyear Wrangler SRAs. The new BFGs are no louder than the worn out stock tires. On a side note make sure you get a 4 wheel alignment done. My alignment was out enough in that 14k miles that the stock tires had the following tread depths at replacement (5/32 in, 3/32 in, 3/32 in, 2/32 in). I just hit 3k miles on the new BFGs and they still look great.
Just fitted General Grabber AT3's - 235/55R18 on 18" rims with 30mm offset. No rubbing but only 5mm clearance in the front wheel well at full lock. Very happy with the look and handling so far... Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
Road noise is low - no noticeable difference from my previous Pirelli SottoZero tires. Only increase in noise I get is from the roof rack! Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
Lol! Yeah, the rack'll do that! Cool, I've been looking at Grabbers for my Trailhawk. Sent from my SM-G920T using ToasterJeep mobile app
I've heard of people going up to tire diameter 29" on the Trailhawk, so you're all set! Will post an update once I've tried them off-road... Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
So to confirm, you're running 225/65/17 KO2's with 2" spacers, no lift and there's no rubbing? Did you do the pinch seam mod?
Anyone know what tire sizes would fit on the latitude models? looking into all terrain tires but have the 17 inch rims not the 16 inch like most trail hawks. no lift at the moment either. but looking into getting spacers maybe 1.5 Sent from my LG-H830 using Tapatalk
The 225-65-17's are a good fit. Many Renegade owners have this size without problems. No spacers required for these.
That size doesn't rub, I have the same size on the same Renegade but they were Big O Bigfoot A/T. Same diameter as the Dynapros. Heres pics from another thread. https://toasterjeep.com/index.php?t...ook-of-wheels-and-tires-post-yours-here.1698/ I traded in the Latitude for a Trailhawk & moved the Latitude wheels & Big O A/T tires to the Trailhawk. The tires have about 7800 miles & no rubbing what so ever.
I'm running BFG ko2 225/70R16 with 1.25" spacers (no lift) for a week and noticed a little bit of rubbing when turning... funny thing is that without the spacers there was no rubbing.
Put on Hankook Dynapro ATM at 225/70/16 replacing the continentals on my stock latitude. Absolutely perfect. No rub, enough clearance to shed slush etc. I couldn’t be happier. The price was excellent btw. I’m thinking maybe some anhydrous grease around the hub nut to prevent corrosion, but otherwise very very happy.
