285/70R17 tires

285/70R17 is the metric 33-inch tire, and it is what Jeep fits to the Wrangler Rubicon from 2018 and the Gladiator Rubicon from 2020, and Ford to the Bronco Badlands. It is also the classic first upsize on trucks that came with 265/70R17. Below are real prices for 57 tires in stock, three picks with very different constructions in this size, and the load range question that decides how the tire rides.

What 285/70R17 tires cost

Prices are per tire, before mounting and balancing. A set of four in the mid range comes to roughly $720 to $992, and a brand rebate can take another $50 to $110 off, see this month's deals.

Load range changes everything in a 33-inch tire

In this size the label on the listing matters more than the brand. The Goodyear pick is a load range E tire, a ten-ply-rated casing with an 80 psi maximum, while the Westlake and Falken are standard-load versions with maximums of 36 and 51 psi. An E-rated tire resists sidewall punctures on rock and carries a loaded camper, but on a Wrangler or Bronco that is mostly driven empty it rides firmly and can wear the center of the tread unless you lower the pressure to what the tire maker's load table calls for.

For a Jeep or Bronco used on trails and pavement, a standard-load or load range C tire is usually the better match. For a pickup that tows, stay with C, D or E.

Fitting 285/70R17 to a truck that did not come with it

On a half-ton pickup or a 4Runner that came on 265/70R17, the 285 adds about 1.1 inches of height and 0.8 inch of width. That usually means a leveling kit or careful checking at full steering lock, a speedometer that reads a few percent slow, and a spare that may no longer fit under the bed or on the rear door. Each of these tires weighs 47 to 55 pounds, about ten more than the factory tire, so expect a small drop in fuel economy and slower acceleration.

What the numbers on the sidewall mean

A 285/70R17 tire is 285 millimeters wide, its sidewall is 70 percent of that (about 7.9 inches tall), and it mounts on a 17-inch wheel. That works out to an overall diameter of roughly 32.7 inches. Every replacement has to match all three numbers, and the load index and speed rating on the placard inside the driver's door have to be met or exceeded.

In this size our picks are marked 117T on the Westlake SL369 (2,833 lb per tire, rated to 118 mph), 116T on the Falken Wildpeak A/T4W (2,756 lb per tire, rated to 118 mph) and 121R on the Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar (3,197 lb per tire, rated to 106 mph). The first number is the load index, the letter the speed rating; a tire with equal or higher values than your placard is fine, a lower one is not.

Our guide on reading a tire size walks through the markings, and this one lists every load index and speed code.

Our three picks, side by side

One tire at each price level from what the retailer stocks in this size, with the mileage warranty and UTQG grades as published by the manufacturers and their retailers. Treadwear is the number to compare: it is a relative wear rate, so 700 should last roughly twice as long as 350 on the same car.

Westlake SL369, $172.96. The low-cost way into a 33-inch all-terrain. In 285/70R17 it is a standard-load 117T graded 500 A A, with 13/32 inch of tread and a 40,000-mile warranty. It does not carry the 3PMSF symbol.

Falken Wildpeak A/T4W, $324. Falken's all-weather-rated all-terrain, and in this P-type size it gets the full 65,000-mile warranty. It has 14/32 inch of tread, a 660 A B grade and the 3PMSF symbol, so it handles snow better than most tires that look this aggressive.

Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar, $312.99. The heavy-duty choice: in this size the Goodyear is a load range E, 121R tire with an 80 psi maximum, 15/32 inch of tread, a Kevlar-reinforced casing and the 3PMSF symbol. Right for a Gladiator that hauls or tows; stiff for a Wrangler that does not.

The same tires in neighboring sizes

The Falken Wildpeak A/T4W, our mid-range pick here at $324, is also stocked in 35x12.50R17 ($381), LT285/70R17 ($303), LT285/75R16 ($304) and 265/70R17 ($237). The Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar, our premium pick here at $312.99, is also stocked in 265/70R17 ($298.99), 245/75R16 ($195.96), 275/70R18 ($325.02) and LT275/70R18 ($292.96). Useful if your vehicle came with a different wheel package, or if you are comparing an upsize: the same tire usually costs more per inch of wheel, not per inch of rubber.

Winter on a pickup in this size

Four-wheel-drive pickups satisfy Colorado's Passenger Vehicle Traction Law on the 126 miles of I-70 between Dotsero and Morrison, in force from September 1 to May 31, on the vehicle alone, provided the tires have at least 3/16 inch of tread. A two-wheel-drive truck, still common in work trims, must be on tires marked M+S, 3PMSF or rated all-weather by the manufacturer. Fines start at $130. Nearly every all-terrain tire carries the M+S marking, and the better ones now also carry the 3PMSF symbol, which requires a tested level of snow traction rather than just a tread pattern. An unloaded pickup is light over its rear axle, so on snow the rear tires lose grip first; a few hundred pounds of ballast in the bed over the axle does as much as the tire choice.

Our pick the Falken Wildpeak A/T4W carries the 3PMSF symbol.

Frequently asked questions

How much do 285/70R17 tires cost?

Expect $139–$180 per tire for a budget brand, $180–$248 for a mid-range tire like the Falken Wildpeak A/T4W, and $248–$327 for a premium tire like the Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar. A set of four therefore starts at about $556. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.

What vehicles use 285/70R17 tires?

285/70R17 is original equipment on Jeep Wrangler JL Rubicon (2018-2024), Jeep Gladiator Rubicon (2020-2024), Ford Bronco Badlands (2021-2024), Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro (2015-2024, upsize alternative), Toyota Tacoma (2016-2023, 33 in upsize) and Chevrolet Silverado 1500 (2007-2024, 33 in upsize), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.

What is the best 285/70R17 tire?

For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Falken Wildpeak A/T4W, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure with Kevlar is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Westlake SL369 is a sound choice.

Can I replace just one or two 285/70R17 tires?

On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
