Got my open country R/T 37x12.50x18 yesterday. Randomly found a ship that had a set a customer ordered and no longer needed, I guess he crashed his truck. His loss, my gain.

I like those. I’m curious how those fit. Stock suspension? I’m learning about these trucks still. I know nothing about off-road, and my background with cars is big turbo vw, and electric cars… so the exact opposite.

I need to read more on these but whatever the arm the goes from the front differential tube to the frame, I think I read that rubs with big tires and so does the stock sway bar. I can swap sway bars but that arm I was wondering if it’s possible to make a banana shaped one out of chrome moly tubing to clear big tires… or even make a bracket that moves the bar in maybe an inch. I haven’t thought too much on it to make something because it will be a couple years before I replace wheels and tires anyways… I’m poor after buying the truck
 
Weighing my options on which Toyo's to get once the trophy hitch becomes available. The Toyo ATIII's have the best mileage warranty in the Open Country lineup, but not as cool looking as the Toyo M/T :(
 
Those are excellent tires. Mine are wearing pretty evenly. I've used up 75% of its life so far. With my, uh, special driving style, I am on track to getting 40k miles out of them. My only complaint is its lack of traction on wet pavement. I find it slips in the rain much easier than the Duratracs. But otherwise, they are super grippy.

Not sure how they will fit with stock suspension, I have some Carli suspension in the works, hopefully going on in February. Still haven't chose my wheels yet, I just couldn't miss out on getting these tires as they're VERY scarce right now.
 
Great choice. The R/T’s look great on this truck and seem to be most appropriate to the typical use.

MTs are a great tire, but noticeably louder than the factory duratrash tires if that's a deal-breaker. They do warrant them for 50k too which is a bonus.

M/T has no treadwear mileage warranty.

R/T and ATIII do.

My MTs have always given me good mileage. The set I have on now has 32k and still has 1/2 the tread left on it. Not bad for MTs.
 
I ran 37” Toyo RTs on my Raptor and they felt a lot heavier than the Grabber Red Letter tires I had on it previously. I switched to 37” Ridge Grapplers for my Tremor and they are definitely quieter on the highway! Either tire is a great choice for our trucks… :cool:

I couldn't find the exclusion on their site... I could have sworn I saw 50k somewhere.

Also, technically, they can refuse to honor warranty for those getting larger than OE spec tires too based on their warranty details.

This is why you have an official Ford door sticker printer 😂😅

I have the stock size 285 ATIII's on mine and they are quiet with a great ride. Handled well in the foot of snow we just had (which is why I enjoy thinner tires!). Yeah, not as cool looking, but I spend a a fair amount of time on asphalt and a bit less on the farm, so the quiet, comfortable ride was more important ;)
