Ordered 295/60/20 KO2’s to go on stock blackout rims with ready lift leveling kit and WOW these tires came in bigger than expected.

Up beside 315/70/17 KO2 the tread width is actually .5” wider. They’re sitting around 34” right now. Also check out the width difference from the stock 275 garbage tires they put on.

Has anyone else ordered these tires and thought they were a lot bigger than expected?
Any rub on the UCA with stock rims? Installing tomorrow morning...

295 is the tread width. So 315 will be 20mm wider.

KO2s do have a narrower sidewall than some other tires. You shouldn't have any issue with UCA clearance on the sidewall.

That’s what I thought too but look at this 315/70/17 which should be wider treads, it’s actually half inch smaller?!

Not the KO2, but i’m getting the same size Falken AT3W’s installed next week Tuesday. Going from 31.9 Dueler to 33.9 I figured it only adds 1 inch lift, but didn’t realize how much bigger it really is until I saw the picture you posted. Thanks!
(‘19 Laramie/ 2” Mopar lift).

Same here. I talked to the parts guy at the dealership, he had no concerns. I made sure to mention I have the Mopar spash guards. I’m doing their buy 3, get 1 free deal.

$1300 including disposal, balancing and sales tax. Aligning would be another 80, but was done last month with the lift.

Currently rubbing slightly at full lock reverse on the wheel well liner if going quick, slowly nothing will probably tie it back a bit.
Yeah that’s from a tire shop, that tire shop beat everyone else by 25-50 a tire!
Very very close to the UCA but not touching, I installed the readylift UCA which sticks out more than stock one. Check out picture.
