BFG KO2 20k review

Replaced the OEM Goodyear’s with 265 75 16 KO2’s in 2016. The ride was noticeably more solid with the E rated tires right away. I also noticed the extra weight a little as well. After 20,000 miles the tires are running exactly the same as day 1. No extra noise or degradation in performance. I probably have another 30,000 miles left in them.

 

Great all round AT tire, I have the 285 70 17 in C, 51 lbs. really like them.

 

I’ve had a little wheel spin on wet roads with them. Not unusual for a pickup. So, I put 150 lb of sand in the back for a little more traction.

 

I've never had an issue, I do run a Leer Canopy so maybe that's the difference in the wet.

 

How's winter with them? I'm in Canada so our winters can be long and hard, really debating KO2's in E load or Wildpeaks AT3W in SL.

 

I had them through two winters in Kentucky. I never felt the need to switch to a winter tire. My driveway was pretty steep, but I could always get up it in 4WD.

 

Wildpeaks are great ice and snow tire. The KO2 has a harder rubber compound better for the seasons other that winter.

 

I ran them on my 08 before changing to the Mud Terrains. I usually got around 70K miles out of each set.
