@LEEHWCAP how do the RTs compare to the ko2s?

Didn't get much offroad time with the KO2's. The RT's are great off road.

On road they are equally as quiet. The RT might even be a little quieter. How, I don't know but they make next to no noise. Both great street tires. The Toyo is a little more slippery in the rain. My main reason for changing back was the KO2's throw gravel worse than the original KO. All the extra sipes in the KO2 pick up gravel like crazy and then wait till you're on the highway to throw it at the bed side. The large voids in between the tread on the RT help avoid the rock throwing.

Cant go wrong with either. The RT weight is 73lb and the BFG was 66lb on my scale. When paired with Roosts the Toyos are still less than the OEM setup and a ton less than OE beadlocks.

That's some pretty good information. The one thing I was worried about was the gravel throw. Well I guess I will be getting the rt next. Thanks for the help!

Any issues with mid perch and 37's? Truck looks really good.

I was running 37x13.5 Toyo MT's on 0 offset Methods. Had to hammer in the pinch welds on two separate occasions before there was enough room to turn the wheel without rubbing... and still, tires would rub on occasion. Didn't work for me so I am now running the 37x12.5 KO2s and they are perfect! No issues!

He shouldn't have any. That truck has Fiberwerx fenders on it.

Only recommendation I would make is to stay away from a 13.5'' wide tire (Toyo's are more like 14.5"). And if you want to run a true 37'' then lean towards Boatecs or Glassworks fenders. I just like the look of the Fiberwerx fenders more than the others.
