So, I've got a 2020 Rebel with 37000 miles and the factory Goodyear duratrac tires. The other day while driving in the rain( first rain we've had on a month!) I drove into a corner and the front end slid like I was driving on ice! The rear tires occasionally lose traction too! I am in need of new rubber but I will not replace the factory tires with another set of Goodyears! Looking for suggestions! I like the look of a knoby tire, MT/AT, but realistically I only go off road once or twice a year and that's on dirt roads. I may level the truck as well when replacing the tires, so 35's are possible. Let me know your experiences!
Thanks in advance!

I've been running the Toyo Open Country RT Trail for 6 months now and really like them. They've been really good in rain, snow and show little wear after 5000 miles. Mine are 295-70r18's

I wanted the King coilovers but due to the backlog I decided on Fox due to their reputation and no wait time and prior experience on my dirt bikes, I also offroad pretty deep into the Oregon woods, so I wanted a reliable system that can handle the rough stuff.

Not a Rebel, but if you want a more budget tire, I am running 35x12.50R20 Radar Renegade AT-Pro. Very happy with them. Good traction in wet, snow, and dry. I was running Kenda Klever M/Ts before, and they did good in dry and snow, but were very easy to spin in the rain. can't say I ever hydroplaned with them though.

The BFG KO3 is supposed to release at some point. I’m interested to see what improvements they have made. The KO2 wasn’t great in the rain but those things have been bulletproof for me in the past.

This is a pefect stance and height. Are you running the BDS 3" 2.5 coil over in the front? It looks higher than 2". Also what are you using in the rear?

Thank you. Yes, it's exactly the way I wanted it to stand and height to be. I was impressed how it turned out!

No, it's not the BDS setup, I did not want to cut into the frame, so I did just the Fox 2.5's coilovers with the extended length and for the rear, Icon 1.5" coils. I did have the coilovers dialed up an extra 3/8" to get them where I wanted the height to be though.

Ok yea that’s perfect! Are you running your stock Bilsteins in the rear or fox in the rear with the 1.5” spring?
