I reckon ride height is about 25mm higher and road noise has not increased much at all even at 100kmh.
Speedo now seems to match GPS speed exactly so just need to be a bit more careful !

Nice - Is that standard suspension height? - Do they fit OK without too much scrubbing? I'm thinking of that size in some Mickey T MTZ's for my "play" rims

Yep standard suspension at the moment, haven't gone anywhere to stretch the travel yet but looks like it will be clear in all but the most extreme cases, certainly no scrubbing on the road.
I think they have added about 54mm diameter over the original Dunlop AT20s.
I'll let you know how the fuel goes too but I guess the odometer will be slightly out now too.

Work use to run them, good for everything apart from mud, even aired right down they are awful.

But they are A/T and not M/T afterall ;)

I have D697's in 265/75/16, they have been excellent in everything bar clay, mine have now done 76000km's and coming close to the end of their life (down to 5mm tread depth). I would highly recommend them for all round use, but being a heavier carcass in this size pressures do need to be run quite low on the soft beaches here to get them to bag out. I start at 15 psi and go down from there. For rocks and mud, usually 18-20psi and dirt touring mid to high 20's. Have been absolutely fantastic.
Gonna try some D674's on the play rims in a month or so too :)

Just an update on my BFG KO2's:
Just done a 2200km trip up north for a family holiday and tried beach, mud, gravel and even a river crossing and they are great.
Even running road pressure of 38psi on fairly soft sand didn't get me bogged.
Very happy so far, just have to see how they last long term.

Also very happy with my KO2's

Just returned from a 28 day, 11,000 km trip to the top end, travelling some pretty ordinary roads like the birdsville developmental rd just after being reopened after rain, the plenty hwy, the mereeni loop to kings canyon plus some high speed bitumen.

Also made it up big red first go after watching a land cruiser dual cab fail several times on the same line.

Seems very sure footed on the corrogated and loose gravel roads, and quite comfortable when set at appropriate pressures.

Noticeable wearing but that could be due to the high kms in very short time frame.

I would happily choose these again based on the performance so far

I only dropped to 22psi. With all the weight onboard this flattened out fairly well.

Cooper STT's on standard rims.


Off topic but would anyone know if the roof racks on the hard lid was mounted directly or did it need some sort of rails.
Keen to get this on mine as well...

Haha yeah they are pretty aggressive! I picked them up second hand with 2 of the tyres about 98% and 2 at about 70-80% already on the sunnys and lets just say it was a price I couldn't walk away from. Havnt had the chance to test them properly yet as I picked them up 3 weeks ago the day before I flew back to work and I've still got a week left before I fly home again to test them. Should be good fun when I get home since I've got a compressor, VMS, maxtrax, chip, Superior diff drop, extended ball joints, Dawes valve, plazaman intercooler piping and a scan tool all waiting for me to bang in when I get home so I will be testing them out as much as I can in my 2 weeks of R&R! :P :D
