Well crazy turn of events I won the SimpleTire giveaway on here! I played it safe and went with 265/75r16 Firestone Destination X/T. They look aggressive, have good reviews, and are relatively light. Super excited and will post pics as soon as I get them installed.

^^ this right here

I only see those listed in load range E, is that what you got?

Really making art form of being certain and wrong at the same time, eh?

I don't understand? I didn't think to go back three pages and search for his tire size, is that "wrong"?

Congrats @B-Dog15 - those looks great on your Bronco. Enjoy!

just seemed a little aggressive, but maybe I read your posts wrong.

I still don't know what tire he got because he hasn't revealed the load range yet. I may have some pertinent information for him since I have a set of those tires, in that size, on my old Tacoma.

You must be the tire tyrant or something lol jk I’m just giving you a hard time man.

The tires are indeed load range E.

I have bad news and good news for you. Your tires are two load ranges heavier than spec for a Bronco, you can expect a harsh ride and they're heavier than they need to be.
I have that tire in C load range on my Tacoma, apparently they have been discontinued, and they are crap! Flimsy and they wear extremely fast, I would never buy them again but it looks like I won't have that option. Your LREs should be plenty stiff, they're made for 3/4 and 1 ton trucks.

I appreciate the info! Ride doesn’t seem to bad so far but I prefer a more “trucky” ride if that makes sense. I have heard mixed reviews on Firestone however this particular tire had really good reviews so I’m hoping they will hold up. They are one of the lighter AT tires in this size at about 45lbs per tires which swayed me to try them out.

My XT 275-70/18 E on Hoss2 ride perfectly can barely feel washboard chop, can take big hits with no reverb, and corners very well with little sidewall flex. Perfect for my use as 3rd world trashed urban streets and median / curb crawler and mountain highways plus back roads.

I do have them at 32 and they easily go up to 35/6 once driving. I am curious about 30 psi and impact on tight handling....

So far I’m loving them! Definitely louder on the highway than the Duelers but the ride quality feels better.
