Badlands 33" BFG K02 Load Rating?

[chartzilla]

I've been trying to find this info for the past hour but haven't turned up much. Has Ford released detailed info about the tires on Badlands trim? I know they're the 33" BFG K02s, but based on my searching on Tire Rack, it looks like BFG makes both "C" and "E" load rated K02 tires in the LT285/70R17 size. I plan on doing a good bit of offroading here in Colorado, so I'm hoping it's the "E" rated ones as they're generally better at resisting punctures from sharp rocks out on the trail... But I suspect Ford probably went with the "C" rated ones for better ride and $$$ reasons. Anyone know?

I don’t know, but your question is a good one. I run “E” rated KO2s on my JKU. If “C”, would switching to “E” rated tires improve the GVWR? Or are the Bronco axles the limiting factor?
