Bf Goodrich
Need new tyres so looking at the BF Goodrich AT KO2 265/75-16 Currently have the standard Cross Contact 235/85-16on boost alloys and 30mm spacers.
Will the BF’s fit OK without any problems
Cheers

Yes, the 265 was a standard tyre at one time on boosts.
Might have to adjust lock stops though...

With spacers already fitted then you won't have any problems, as already stated the 265/75X16 BFG AT on Boosts was standard fit at one time.
I ran them for a long time and had an excellent turning circle. ONE LIFE, GET IT!

If you have someone that can fit the tyres for you Camskill can be hard to beat on price.

I bought some bf’s a week ago and they where £25 cheaper a tyre than most places.

Don't rule out your local tyre shop. When I got my 265 ko2's the local's price was a few pounds extra but included fitting and balancing, we'll worth it. James

Try Micheldever Tyres near Basingstoke so possibly not too far from you? Worth having a shop around though as even though they're part of Protyre I've found that sometimes Tyreland will be cheaper but then Micheldever will price match. They supply, fit & balance.

Bracknell Tyre and Battery in, er, Bracknell are worth a call and are maybe closer. I think they're also part of Protyre now, too, but they've always been competitive and helpful. Darren

I'd like these tyres too but still waiting for Nakatanenga's steel rims to get approved by EU. https://www.nakatanenga.de/fahrzeugtechnik...8x16?c=69#

Back along when I toured the roads around Surrey Berks and Hampshire with BFG AT tyres, I got them replaced at Micheldever Tyres. Turned up there 1st thing in the morning as they opened, having checked stock the previous day and they were fitted straight away ......nearly as quick as a Burger King Drive thru........with what I order anyway !!
