I was looking into buying some BFG T/A KO2's and the recommended rim widths are 8.5-11 or 9-12 depending on the exact tire size, and I wanted to put them on my stock 18x8 inch wheels. I've gotten a few conflicting local opinions, but I haven't had great luck finding info online. What do you guys think, and has anyone done this? Also I was looking into either using these as both my daily tires and my sled pulling tires so how would they affect daily driving? I'm running a 2015 CCLB Aisin w/3.42 gearing SRW right at 8000 pounds with a half tank of diesel. These are the exact tires I was looking at:
LT305/65R18/E -8.5" - 11" 12.2" on 9" 33.5
LT325/65R18/E -9" - 12" 13" on 9.5" 34.6
34x12.50R18/E -8.5" - 11" 12.5" on 10" 33.5
Thanks in advance.
PS: I notice a lot of the newbee stickies are pretty old, and I know a lot has changed in the diesel world in the last few years. Feel free to give me any tips on tire pressue, tire size, tire type, wheel size or whatever else you think is important.
