    I haven't really considered the Falkens. That's a good looking tire as well. I can get the KO2s for $196 each. I'll need to check what the Falkens would cost to compare

    Those are both good prices for the KO2's. When I was looking it seemed every place was $219 or more per tire.

    Thanks for the input everyone. I ended up ordering the 265/70/17 KO2 load C. I was torn between the KO2, Falken Wildpeak A/T3W and Nitto Ridge Grappler. I ended up going with the KO2 mainly because of looks as I have wanted them since I bought the truck 2 years ago. We will see how long they last.

    There is a big difference in price for quality versus price for a name, the BFG's you pay for the name; they are no better than many other tires that are $100 a tire cheaper...
