The Kellys look to have great reviews but the Q speed rating is a little low and they are actually a couple bucks more per tire than the KO2s which is surprising. I hate being stuck on a tire type I was really ready to try the new Falken AT3W but they are $100 more per set than the KO2s and only come in load E like every other option I see.

I don't mind the Load E but Id like to see how a softer sidewall would effect ride quality and 10-12lbs per tire is a big difference in weight. Especially when I have to tote them around and take them on and off to do maintenance. Plus I don't rock crawl or tow very often or much.

 

Should still experiment with air pressures in the sand when you do play just be gentle on the drifts as you get down under ~20psi lol

 

To be honest I usually run about 30-35psi everywhere and I've never been stuck but when towing my 18foot trailer with mud toys through sugar sand I've come dang close and then I bought a portable air compressor so if I do need to air down I can air back up. Most of the time its just playful sand blasting.

 

Well for some reason I expected the load C tires to weight less but it appears the Load E tires weigh 62.4lbs each and the load c are 63lbs each strange.

 

Where did you see the weight listed?

 

On Discount tires web sight and I double checked it here https://tiresize.com/tires/BFGoodric...-315-70R17.htm

 

Interesting indeed. Guess get the E's

 

Yeah comparing nearly every brand tire in that size the lightest is the KO2 in load E at 62.4lbs. I'm kinda shocked.

 

I am surprised the bfg are cheaper. Where I am from kelly are around $500 cheaper a set.

 

Jeez $500 cheaper and they would probably already be mounted. I've found the load C KO2s for $247 a tire that's mounted and balanced. The Kellys are $274 each. I'm thinking my local Discount tire must get a great deal on BFGs because they are about the cheapest option in the size period which I find strange.
