oh wow, just checked out the KO's, love the look. But theyre a bit pricey. What about the nitto trail grapplers? look like they may roar a bit any knowledge of those?
thanks for all your help so far...
The Trails are very similar to the Toyo M/T, (both companies are owned by the same parent company along with Maxxis). I would try the Trails if gas was cheap. Most said the Toyos were quite, but mine were a little noisy, and were worse in their old age.
I loved my Toyo's, but their weight cost me an extra 1 mpg compared to my KO A/T's, (2 mpg compared to stock). The Trails are usually a couple of pounds less than the Toyo M/T's , but the Trails in the LT295/70R18 are around 75 lbs. a piece, so will have an affect on your mileage. [On my Titan with the 3.36 gears, 15 lbs per tire increase, is 1 mpg loss].
The LT295/70R18 Trails are also closer to being a 35 at 34.6" compared to the 34.3" Terra's, so more likely to cause your torque converter to not lock into overdrive at the proper time, and causing some addition fuel loss due to running longer at a higher rpm. Plus additional trimming. If I was to buy a set of Trail's for a leveled Titan, it would be the LT275/70R18 at 33.6" or the LT295/70R17 for the OR rims, which are 33.5". No Torque converter issues on my Titan when I ran the 33.5" Toyo's with the 3.36 gears, and their 73 pound weight being their only real negative.
