    @Noahs2015Taco Thank you, yes they do look amazing..!! I like the steel wheel "look" but am contemplating getting some new wheels. I honestly hate black wheels, no offense to those who have black wheels. :cool: I love your SEMA TRD Wheels really want them.:bananadance:

    Yes sir
    Haha they'll do just fine. My dad's only ever run BFG KO's on his '97 F350 crew cab 4x4. He just got a set of KO2's and loves them so far. They also wear really slowly, you'll get a lot of miles on em.

    It'll be a few more days before I fill up, but I'll let you know.

    I'm hating everything about these 265/70/17 LR C K02s. They're noisier, ride rough, and are to small to look right. If the fuel mileage isn't back up close to stock I'm gonna be hunting new tires or asking if they still have the 275 LR E tires I took off to put the 265 LR C tires on, but I'm still mad about my wheels getting scratched up during the swap so maybe I'll come around once I come to terms with that.

    I went from 21 to 18 or so when I switched from my stock tires to 265 70 17 goodyear authorities (All most identical to the duratracs). I drive almost all freeway and still lost 3mpg. I hate to say it, but I doubt you will get that much better. I'm looking to change to 275 70 17 K02.

    What lift are you running and what are the specs on the wheels? Any rubbing? I'm really wants to get this size tire when I get my lift in.

    3" Toytec lift and 3" body. They would fit without the body lift. I've also done the cab mount chop and box. No rubbing at all flexed to the bump stops.

    Does anyone have any high-mile reports on these tires yet? I'm really wondering about the siping and how the performance might degrade as they lose lug depth. Hoping it's not anything like the Duractacs

    Too few to list.
    I think the Ko2's barely came out late last year so I doubt anyone would have anymore than 30K on them if that.

    I have about 1000 miles on mine now, they still feel and look new.

    I am not 100% sold on them just yet though, the grip seems loose from a stop VS my old Duratracs however the grip in cornering and stopping is extremely improved.. odd.

    Yeah, neither photos are actually mine, but I posted them as an example of how the siping is pretty much non existent in the last half of the tread. I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on duratracs but I don't want a tire that will be compromised in the later half of its life. Living in Michigan gives us some interesting challenges when it comes to winter driving and a late-life duratrac doesn't seem reasonable

    I figured most people wouldn't have that many miles but every now and then someone surprises me with a 50k a year commuter vehicle.
