Forgot to mention which IMO, is very important.

DATE CODE

Wherever and whatever you decide to get, make sure you check the date code. We're half way through '20, so don't take anything but this year's rubber. Have them show you it before you buy the tires.

This is fantastic advice.

I recommend the original Ford spec BFGs, which are different from the off the shelf variety you’ll find. The performance of the vehicle was designed to work in tandem with that particular tire. BF Goodrich was a development partner.

I don’t know if you’re a member at Costco, but try pricing the original BFGs through them as well.

EDIT: Based on the original picture you posted, I wonder what tire pressure you are set at. The outside tread seems to have a fair bit of wear left on them. Looks like classic over inflation.

That’s a good catch. It would be helpful to know the usage and tire inflation history. Not trying to criticize here, but it would possibly help some other users to know
how often tire pressure was checked
what it was set at and what the truck TPMS said
what kind of driving.

I can only speak for the ATIII on my Honda CRV. I really like them. Seriously considering putting them on raptor when I need new tires, but I can’t seem to get the rubber wore down on the KO2... I must have got a good set... 14+k miles and still like new. I admittedly have a fair amount of highway miles

I have a 2017 with about 44,000 miles on my truck and I need new tires. What tire should I go with and about how much should I expect to spend per tire or on all 4. Also where can I get a set of passenger wheel well fenders or flares.? How much will they cost? I had a little brush up against something g after drinking a bit too much

Fender flares will be around 350 and comes painted since they are all the same color anyway. My ko2s maybe lasted 36k and ie since I I bed over to the atturo xt for a road tire and the mt for an offorad tire and I couldn't be happier. Around 800 for a set of 4

I think I paid 1300 for a set of General ATX’s which are amazing so far

That damage on the fender flares would be covered up by line-x coating all of them if that was your aesthetic. Might be cheaper to line all 4 than replacement for one.

I just replaced the tires on my 2018 Raptor. My BFG’s had 45,000 miles on them. Got news BFG KO2s from Costco. $1,088 out the door. They ride awesome!
