I went to Discount tire yesterday to see about them and they said that are available from Michelin at this time. I am definitely considering getting them because they are 10 ply and E Rated. I have the Nitto 295's right now they are fine but I like a E rated tire on a 3/4 ton. I do know that they are priced at $268 a piece. That is kinda steep but they are gonna give me $140 dollar credit for my tires with 5k on them right now. So just thought I would post this if anyone is interested. Have a blessed day to all. Aaron

Let me get this straight: BFG All-Terrains in 305/70-17 E-rated are now available through Michelin Tires?

michelin makes BFG's.

Okay, sounds good. And it is a 305? It seems like an odd size to me.

305 is a great size. Basically a 33x12.50

BFG doesnt make a 305/70/17

I guess it seemed weird because there aren't many 305's out there. Most have 285 then jump to 315. But you're right, 305/70-17 is a great size.

Any idea how much these are? Just got a call from the powdercoater saying my H2 rims are ready, so I need tires pronto.

BFG AT 305/70/17 load range E!!!

This is the tire I've been waiting for. Where/how can I find out more this tire (availability, actual height/width load rating)?

305/70R16 is more like a 33x12
305/70R17 is pretty much a 34x12

Or 295/70-17 is also 33" but only 11.5" wide.

Check them out on www.tires.com which is Discount tires website and you guys can see that it is no joke. They are 305/65/17 and the are availble the manager at Discount tire called Michelin and he said they are ready to go. They are $268 dollars though!!!! Aaron

305/65-17? Well those are the same height as 285/70-17, but 3/4" wider. I checked them out and they have a load index of 121 which would put them at around 3195 lbs load capacity.

If it were me I'd stick with the 285's for under $200!
