BFG AT KO2 Vs Toyo Open Country AT2

I live in the foothills of southern California and my 13' dclb is slipping when I accelerate just like a lot of you TW members. We have been getting pounded with rain and I am looking for a little more aggressive look, but more importantly, I want good handling in the rain. Sounds like most of you are really happy with the BFG KO2, is this feeling pretty unanimous? Will a wider (265/75r16) tire help out with my situation? Or should I keep the same stock size (245/75r16)?

Thanks for your advice!

 

I am thinking of getting the Toya Open Country A/T2 because most of my driving is on the road making deliveries. Will this tire last longer than the BFG's ?

 

The AT2's do come with a 65k mile warranty, so that's an indicator of how long they last. Depending on if you get the C or E sidewall may make a difference as well.

I got 4 of mine today in LT-265/75r16 C for $700 even, that's him taking the TPMS out of my Sport 17's and putting them in my TRD Beadlocks.

Shop around! Call your mom and pop tire places too.

 

I've had KO2, KM2, TerraGrappler, Toyo AT2, KO1, Cooper AT3 and KM1


And I would rank them in that order..

 

Interesting since Toyo AT3 do not exist yet. However, the AT2 is a fantastic tire. I can't wear mine out. Rocks, mud, snow, ice, wheeling, daily...great tire.

 

285/70/17 BFG KO2, first time user and very happy..
