just saw some advertisements for the new nitto terra grappler G3. 3p snowflake rated and in the stock raptor 35 size its about the same weight as the FP spec K02 but is e load (which i find interesting). could be a good option
I’d love to hear about people’s opinion on the load range E and how much they think it could affect ride quality. With a load range E I’d almost just want to go with the KM3’s over the KO3’s

generally there is a significant difference, but i wonder if it would be that much worse with this new tire given that its the same weight as the c load k02

Someone is quoted in one of the threads here saying the KO3 is heavier than the KO2 which would make sense since it’s a Load Range C compared to E. Where are you seeing that they are the same weight? Maybe the tire rack website?

i havent looked at the k03 weights until now (71lbs), but i suspect that there will be a FP spec c load k03 on offer eventually if ford continues to use bf goodrich for 35" oem. maybe not though. the new terra grappler g3 is 64.5lbs at an e load while the c load k02 is 63.7lbs

There will be a 37” C in 2026, which would presumably include a FP version for the Gen 4.
