I've been going back and forth on 315's on stock 16" wheels or 37's on Tundra 17" wheels for about a month and just can't decide. I've search and poured over the 35 and under thread as well as the 37 and up thread. I've spoken with local MUD members so also haven't been able to help me make a decision.
My first choice in tire is the BFG KO2 for comfort, wear, and performance on and off road. I would like a mud terrain but we typically drive the Land Cruiser 95 to 98% on the highway, and next year I am planning on taking some long distance trips. We also wheel at Uwharrie National forest and will be doing some forest road exploring. By the time I order tires, I will have the Land Cruiser regeared to 4.88's.
The 37's appeal to me because of their offroad ability, clearance, and looks. I also consider the 37's insurance when I'm really stuck and need to air down to crawl out of any situation. I already have 1.25" spacers installed and flares have been removed so fitting 37's won't be a problem. The other plus is that the BFG KO2's are fairly light for a 37" tire.
But with all that said, the 315's are the sensible choice for an expedition build.
