Koyo makes the terra grappler in 295x70x17. I recently put a set on my 2005 F250, and it fills the well without raising the truck above entry level for kids. It has an aggresive look and is a good bit cheaper than BFGs. Only got 500 miles so I can't speak for tire wear.

I was wrong, they are actually Nitto which I understand is made by Koyo. I will work on the pictures this evening.

How well do the Nittos work in the sand and mud? The tread pattern doesn't look very aggressive compared to the BFG.

I always had BFG A/T, but for the price I went with the nittos on the Ford. I still believe the BFG is the best all terrain tire made. I drive a company vehicle and have only put 4700 miles on my SD since July 05. The nittos should last atleast till it is paid for. The tread may not be as aggresive, but the nittos have a aggresive look at the sidewall - tread joint and they are not as noisy as the BFGs.

You found 4 tires for $200?

I should take my own advice more often.

Great lookin' rig KO. Those 315s look like they belong on these trucks.

Do they rub?

actually i bought them off ebay for 110 bucks, 65 bucks for shipping, then 64 to get them mounted and balanced and my old tires taken off

239 bucks total

no rubbing anywhere...not even close....i think i could run 37's with ease..they might rub on the radius arms though

i agree....they dont look right without at least a 285

if i hadnt seen your truck i never wouldve thought 315's would fit with so much room to spare, thanks

You have a 2" lift in the rear and how much in the front, over your stock F250 set up?

The 16" wheel will not clear the larger brakes on the 2005+
