    For a 4 inch lift you’ll need to do a drop bracket lift. I’ve had one on my truck for 3 1/2 years now and have had no issues whatsoever. I’ve had no issues with u-joints, wheel bearings or my cv axles. With a drop bracket lift it keeps all of your angles true. I’m running 285/70/17’s.

    They are loud. My wife comments every time she gets in... But they ride great and handle really well.

    4 run, 2 don't
    Any other off road tire will be better than K02's, especially the ones being mentioned multiple times in this thread.

    KM'S are mud terrains, so they'll always be louder than all terrains.

    I just took a set of 255/85/16 km2s off my truck with 68k miles on them , they still had adequate tread . Now running Toyo MT 255/85s.
    The km2s were an absolutely excellent tire . The Toyos so far ride well , do better in the rain , and are quieter, but have a stiffer sidewall ... for what it’s worth .
    Either tire is great
