2022 Timberline Stock Tire Issues - Recommendation For New Tire Type?

[FunkyFuzz1833]

My OE Timberline tires popped on the sidewall when I u-turned on gravel…so replaced with KO3s. Wonder if they had crack and bubble issues like yours.

What tire size are those KO3s. Looking for new tires as I'm having the same issues with slow leaks from cracking in the tread. Thanks

I was on the fence about 305s and ultimately didn’t want the F rate ply count to roughen the ride. With this setup, I’m certain the bigger size would fit, maybe only a small fold needed here or there.

I like that set up. Going to go with the same tires and size you have. Thanks for the info

Can you update the computer to reflect new tire sizes when you change them?

I believe you can adjust the BCM for the new tire outer diameter with Forscan (not Lite), as long as its not too excessively out of range. judging by various posts on F150 etc forums, its something of a trial and error process.
