How about some pics from straight on to see how the width looks?

Best I have on my work computer... Not really as skinny as I thought they would be.

 

[Beowulf]

Those look great. The perfect level of skinny to height ratio.

 

[Fargo]

I was expecting them to be narrower as well. But I agree with Beowulf, they look great.

Thanks guys, it was a huge chance to order 7 tires sight unseen, and with no idea if they would fit, but they fit perfectly (and look great)! They dont touch the body mount (a common issue for FJ Cruisers) as they are so narrow for their height, and they ride really nicely. Not noisy at all, and seem pretty decent in the snow. They are a great size if you dont want to go to a 35" tire, or want something 10.5 inches wide.

Where did you get them? I was curious what they were selling for but couldn't even find them online anywhere. How much do they cost per tire? The MSRP on them was crazy high as I recall.

Discount Tire was able to order them for me (I got them Thursday last week, before they were even officially released). If you call, they will tell you they cant order them, tell them thats not true, and that you know someone who got them. They will then talk to their BFG rep and order them for you. You should be able to get them around 280-290 a tire delivered. If you have a local store, negotiate in the install.

What is the actual measured height? I'm looking at this size for my JKU, just wondering how close to the 33.5 tall they are on the vehicle.

Thanks

update?

After about 2,000 miles on road and maybe 250 off pavement, they're still round, no punctures, still no where near worn out.

The new ones are 265/75/16, old XTX tires were 265/70/16 and I've noticed about a .5 mpg decrease commuting, 1.2 mpg drop in hwy mileage (adjusted for the larger tire).

I've noticed about a 1.0 mpg decrease in my overall mileage each tank. 285/75/16 LRE. Tires still sound "sticky" at low speed, probably siping. Overall, I like them. Big improvement in ride comfort compared to the Nitto Terra Grapplers I was running. Not much offroad action on them...yet. :sombrero:

Just put a set of 265/75/16s on my 2012 Frontier - no pics yet cause I'm fighting a wicked sinus infection and don't feel like getting out to take some. I did measure them and they are true to size listed in spec table on BFG's website. I'll update with pics and more info once I have time to get out and run around with them.

I don't have the caps on yet, but here are the pics, just 5 minutes after Discount mounted them up.
