    Just wondering but why do you hate them. Thinking of getting a set and just wanted to get some info. I had a set of the old bfg all terrains on my dodge diesel they worked great in the snow but thoes trucks just eat up tires so they didn't last long.

    Who else here thinks its total BS that these tires don't come in stock sizes with C rating? This is the tire that makes a Taco a Taco, everyone loves the look, 99% of us will only use this tire on the streets so we don't need a ridiculously heavy E rated tire. I wonder why they don't make our size and how big of a deal would it be to do so.

    I'm an extremely picky Tire person. I went through 4 different sets and finally stayed with the k02. Unlike most, I'm actually not a fan of the aggressive look. The tires have exceeded my every expectation.

    On the desert trails I run, they don't have the grip.

    Hopefully I will like them. The only sand we have in WV is if someone pours it out of a bag. Plus in my area there isn't a whole lot of offroad trails fit for a new truck, too many trees. It probably isn't coming out in the same shape it went in.

    Wow thats insane compared to what I got outta tires on my last truck. maybe 20k till my bfg's were shot. I guess all the extra weight really makes a difference. Plus they were 315/70/17 so it really hurt the wallet.

    I get compliments on my KO2s from random people, including little old ladies. I hear complaints when I'm near someone else who has KO2s...about the noise or the ride.
