    Sitting in Discount Tire typing this up. Im moving from Duratracs to KO2's. I got 63k out of the duratracs and really enjoyed them. Both sizes are 265/70/17 load range C. I had balancing issues from day 1 with my duratracs and after dealing with an arm workout from steering wheel vibes for 63k miles i just had to go with something different. The KO2's look exceptionally well in person and im excited for a change. Hope i dont regret it. 850.00 installed.... walking out to my truck right now and it looks awesome! Ill report back after some miles

    Well first impressions.... visually they are two thumbs up! Much more agressive then the previous KO and much more agressive in person. Absolutely no stearing vibes! Forgot what it feels like to drive a normal truck. Couldnt be happier about that! I had them road force balance them and t8ghten the lugs by hand but did the same always on the duratracs too. I also noticed much tighter turns with these. I have seen numerous posts about the tire slipping upon acceleration and i must say i noticed none of that. Could be due to me having pretty worn duratracs but comparing them was not even close when it comes to accelerating from a stop. I could squeel my duratracs without even trying.... these just grip and go. The ride comfort is a little more harsh as I do feel more bumps and potholes but its wierd it feels more stable and strong, even though I feel it more it still feels better. Its not a Cadillac so it doesnt bother me but some may feel differently on that one. Overall for the first 20 miles im digging my new shoes but who doesnt love getting new shoes!? Hope this helps someone out there

    what did you have them air it at?
    i had the shop air mine to 40 psi when i got them put on and found that after i aired them to about 36 psi it was a little bit softer ride

    Often the road slippage during acceleration is due to too much pressure too, I run mine at 31-32

    35 psi on all 4 corners has worked well for me too. I know the rears are wearing differently than the fronts, but being as these are new tires I plan to rotate them quickly enough so that it won't cause any significant differences.

    You'll be fine. 265/75R16 or 265/70R17 fit perfectly on stock suspension.

    I keep reading that the 265/70/17 fit fine but then I see post where someone rubs or has to cut some in the wheel well.

    Well, I can only speak from my own experience but I'm running that size on stock suspension and have had zero problems.
