Just bought 4 new BFG's from 4wheelparts.com, $199 each with free shipping. Coupon code "CC5OFF" gets you another 5% off... that's $189 each shipped to your door.

Just throwing it out there...

Great deal for those who want LT315/70R17 C-Rated tires.

E-Rated and 35X12.50-70 are still over $300

I know they are putting load C on the Gen2 but how reliable will these be on Gen1's off-roading with 400-500lbs in the bed?

I was told by 4Wheel Parts that these C rated tires have their limits tested by the truck alone. Jumping it or additional weight in the bed, plus passengers while wheeling would probably be a bad idea. I'd say you decide for your truck but I'm getting the E rated tires.

Would not recommend C-rated tires for any real off road duty. YMMV

But its okay for a Gen2 to do so?

Exactly lol.

Exactly lol.

Mall speed bumps at 30mph then or do you think that might be pushing it?

Lets just say I wouldn't drive down to Baja with C-rated tires...and I'm sure you agree. Ford put those tires on the trucks to keep costs down and the trucks out the door.

Yeah I wonder if Greg Foutz had C-rated when he did it. I heard he drove home on the same set but watching that Ford video of him in that race they show changing his tires at a night pitstop. Hmm...

Was not the Gen1 bfg's a D-rated tire? I've ran Baja (1,200 miles) with old date code spare tires (bought on the cheap from several people) and had no major issues nor flats and drove it home back to Missouri and still running around on the same set.
