Great tires. I put them on my truck last May. I installed a Roush FoX 2” leveling kit on my truck. It rides great.

Which sidewall did you end up going with? I'll need to replace my 285/65 KO2s before this next winter

I went with the left side per my daughter's request. If I'm being honest I prefer the one on the right side

How's your MPG compare before lift/tires and after?

My speedo has not been corrected through forscan. So there's a 3.3% difference. Not taking that into consideration. Just reading from my dash. I've lost 2mpg. It was about .5/.75 mpg with the 2" level. I drove with just that for about 1000 miles. Right now I'm averaging just over 21mpg where all stock I was just over 23mpg. If I play around with the 3.3% tire difference it looks like I only lost 1-1.5mpg. I'm still over 20, that's all I was hoping to achieve.

Here's a few pictures. The first one is level only with stock tires. The 3 others are with the recons

I have the same tires and after about 4k miles, I really like them. I opted for the other sidewall pattern but either one looks way more aggressive than the stock Hankooks.
