Tire Decisions 2015

[SWUtah]

2010 LX 570 with 20" wheels and a nice ride but need new tires and want off road tires. Have always had 18" wheels on previous LC's and wondering how I will like the new 20" tires as opposed to the previous 18's? What draw backs are the 20's? Should I convert to 18" wheels? Suggestions please and thanks for response

If not rock crawling not a big problem. It's all about the side wall height. Get some BFG KO2's

If you plan to take it off road, you want more sidewall & less wheel. 17 or 18 is always going to be preferable to 20 off road.

If you don't plan to...then 20 mostly means you'll rely more on your suspension for a quality ride, since you give up some potential cushioning with less rubber between you and the road.

How do the 285 60 18 ko2 D range tires ride? Will they be much softer / quieter than the Es? These BFGs look great.

These would be great! You don't need "E" rated tres
