Just put 305/45R22 Toyo Open Country A/T 3 on my 2021 1500 Laramie. No rub at all right now and it’s stock. I bought 2 inch MotoFab leveling kit that I’m installing this weekend but it’s not essential with these tires.
The ride quality and noise (lack there of) is phenomenal.
This right here was enough to convince me that the AT3 is the right tire for me. Thanks for posting pics!

Has anyone checked out the 295/50/22 Ko2"s? TIre Rack shows the size being available to order. I'm leaning towards those, as the size seems to be a good balance of additional size over stock, without taking a huge MPG hit like the RG's in that size or similar (like the 285/55/22 RG's). It's 54lbs and D rated, vs 64 lbs and E rated like the RG's.
Did you ever get any additional information on the 295/50/22 KO2s? I'm also interested. How do the KO2s compare to Nitto Ridge Grapplers and/or Toyo Open Country AT3? Discount Tire shows all 3 available in that size.

I haven't gotten much new info, but I am leaning towards the KO2's due to their weight advantage, and what I believe to be better snow and ice performance vs the Ridge Grappler or Recon Grappler. I could be wrong on that, but that's what seems to be the case when I look at the reviews of all these. I really like the new Recon, but what I've read and seen, they aren't great for snow and ice, which I get here in MN. I drive a lot, so good road manners are important, otherwise I'd go with a big RG all day.

Just slapped on 285/45r22 AT3s. Amazing and worth the money if you can find a set.

FWIW, you will get rub when you do a full park with the 305s, at least that's what most people on the forums are saying.

2021 Laramie, crew cap, sport, no lift.

Installed 305/45R22 Toyo OC ATIII yesterday, 305mm is 12 in. wide so no worries. The frt wheel liner inside edges have no mounting points and are very thin. Just drill small hole at each edge and tie wrap back...(y)

Me too!

I added Revel links to the front only (exact same tires/size) and I am not happy with the ride because NORMAL ride height is now actually OR1. Much stiffer and on broken pavement, very harsh. I may swap the factory links back in. View attachment 74300 View attachment 74299
please post more side pictures, I'm on the fence on whether to get the 305/45R22 or the 285/55R22 tires, I have a Longhorn with no air suspension. Truck looks great, how are the tires holding up?

Im really wanting info on the 295/50r22 if you or anyone else has gotten them.
They do fit on a 9" rim right? The recommended rim width on sites is blank for most 295/50r22.

I think these are the sweet spot for a small level.
Or if you want the D rated K02, its the only option with this much sidewall

Looks great, why have some others said that with the 305's they get rub? Also, do you need a speedo adjustment for this size?

Any rubbing at any ride height? Do you have it leveled?

Slight rubbing in 'Aero' when cranked all the way over - something I never do so it doesn't bother me. No rubbing in 'Normal' AFAIK, and I don't drive in 'Entry/Exit' so I didn't test that, but it probably rubs there.

Truck is otherwise stock, no level or lift or spacers.

I am running Toyo AT3 305/45/22 on stock wheels and stock suspension. No issues minor rubbing at full turn (parking) slight trimming of wheel well with scissors fixed it. no other issues great tire great size. Last pic is stock tire for comparison
