Best Tires for GX 460 (1 Viewer)

[SugarBear]

so can anyone on here confirm that a 255.70r18, in either the BF Goodrich AT or the Falken AT3, will fit? Specifically concerned about the spare tire spot, as we don't have bumpers or swingouts or anything yet.
Thanks!

I originally had 255/70/18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers on the stock wheels and the spare fit in the factory location.

I had ordered the KO2's but then cancelled when I started reading that the Falken Wildpeak A/T3W's are much better on ice due to a softer rubber. Getting them put on next week, went with 265/65/18's. From what I read, the KO2's are too hard and slip really easily on ice. The other thing that changed my mind is that it sounds like the A/T3W's are a bit quieter on pavement. Will primarily be using this vehicle for snowboard trips (Mammoth, Utah, etc), so wanted something that could work well on ice/snow and be fine for general all around use where I live (SoCal) -- don't want to have to use winter tires. Basically I was looking for the best all terrain that could work really well on snow and ice.

Did you ever get those 265/65R18 Wildpeaks? Did it fit in the spare? I've got KDSS and the factory hitch and I'm wondering if those tires will fit.
