Thanks again. Useful insight. So the Grenadier is coming with a D load rating 8 ply tyre
Yup! I think its a good choice for the Grenadier, given its GVWR.Thanks again. Useful insight. So the Grenadier is coming with a D load rating 8 ply tyre
Yes quite pricey. The last tyres I purchased just over a year ago were Falken Wildpeak A/T 235/85 r16 for my defender came in at around ÂŁ150 each for five fitted, did get a deal on them thoughCould be right, used to be 8PR on 16". "Only" GBP 314..like that

Just been checking over the tyre size and ply ratings again and came up with this for the 17” rim with BFG,s as per brochure which when I checked is a 10 ply rating is that correct 17” RIM - LT265/70R17 121/118S

I can't read the info on this tire. Does it say Load Range E somewhere?This picture originally posted on 28th by @Deepblue would confirm that the tyres are LT265/70R17 121/118S as per the brochure which checks out at a 10ply rating on the 17” rims. Not sure on the 18” but think that’s an 8ply rating. View attachment 7802452
No, I do not believe that to be correct. But I'm not 100% certain.
Video of the Grenadier indicates that the BFG KO2 being used has a Load Rating of D, which is equivalent to an 8-ply rated tire. But maybe there are different tires for different wheel sizes (17-inch wheels vs 18-inch wheels) - I don't know.
The Load Rating of E is the one that is equivalent to a 10-ply tire, but I don't think we're getting the E-rated tires.
Below is a photo of the BFG KO2 on the Grenadier, then a table of Load Ratings and their "ply" equivalents, and then a screen shot from a website I have recommended previously as a good source of data on various tires.

Load Range Ply Rating
A 2
B 4
C 6
D 8
E 10
F 12
Below is a screenshot with the different versions of the KO2 in the relevant size. NOTE: there are four different KO2s in this size. If the photo is accurate, then the tire that comes with the Grenadier is the second one on this list - which is the only one with a Load Rating of D.

I did...The Load Rating of E is the one that is equivalent to a 10-ply tire, but I don't think we're getting the E-rated tires.
Jeep Wrangler 2007 - current uses a 5” x 5” bolt pattern.Is the rim original Grenadier or a match to other brands, f.e. Mercedes G or Jeep?

Americas - Bridgestone All-Terrain Tire vs BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO2 Tire.....save 1k on the build?
IG should have really offered a 285 KO2 option If it would be an offical option fom INEOS it would increase their fleet consumption.www.theineosforum.com
