Everything about tires for LR4/ LR3 with 18" wheels

[harbinger808]

Just bought a new set of 265/65/18 ToyoAT3s for the LR4 after we had our second blowout with KO2s. Not doing as much off-roading these days so I decided to give these a try. I will say after 4 days of driving, streets and freeways at various speeds feel smoother than with the KO2s which makes the wife happy.

Yeah, they should be able to patch that one up no problem.

I've just bought a set of KO2s. Has anyone else had an issue with them?

The only issues I’ve ever had was getting balanced properly by various shops but that’s it. My blowouts were just my driving habits and conditions. I’ve always enjoyed them and think highly of them, just wanted to try something new and easier on the wallet.

OK, that's somewhat reassuring. Although I like to go into rough terrain, too, with the car weighing close to 3.5 tonnes... Or do you mean you drive fast on asphalt? But I don't think so, with two blowouts you would not be on this forum any more.

2 blowouts separate occasions. Our vehicle has an RTT plus awning and when it’s packed up with gear inside it’s as heavy as any other LR4 in this group. One blowout on trail which wasn’t at all difficult but it had its share of not so dull rock surfaces
The picture I posted of the BFG was freeway roughly 70mph. So I’m assuming there must have been a cut/tear I didn’t see or some freaky ass road debris :/ luckily I was thought to always have two hands on the steering wheel at all times

Hi all, I’ve just fit the Evo Corse wheels with ST Maxx in 265 65 18.
One question I couldn’t seem to nail down was for tire pressure.
Anybody have any recommendations?
I have done the dual battery this week with Optima and will do rear fridge soon.
So not as weighted as would be with bull bars and all the other stuff.

I'm on my second set of K02s, with 0 blow outs. We absolutely love the tire as it's good on and off road

I'm having the same trouble getting them balanced. First 1500 miles, 0 issues, but ever since tough to get them right.

These sites helped me narrow down the right pressure for my 265/70-18s

47 front and 52 rear is the best for my daily commute.

I hope they help!
