    Ive heard nothing but good things about them. If i were to ever go AT again id get them. My falken AT didnt look more agressive than the maxx but they outperformed them (im my experience with both that is).

    ko2s also run smaller, given it may be .5" which really only equates to .25" of lost clearance. Some say it's not a big deal, but if you could choose would you not rather have the .5" of extra diameter and .25" more height?!?

    My friend had KO2s on his jeep and they were always clogging up with mud, I wasn't impressed really. I believe he ended up selling his on CL after he put 10K miles on them...

    Somebody be a guinea pig and run the new Firestone MT2s or the Maxxis Razr MTs. I'm definitely going with a mud tire next, and I drive 80 miles to/from work, 5 days a week!

    You almost got stuck there, that was pretty deep! The red Alabama clay mud ain't no joke in clogging up your tires though!

    I've been down the powerline trails off Nesbit Lake Road across from Jacksonville State University and 6" of that red clay mud was giving everyone a hard time. Especially if they had tight-tread AT tires. The mudders fared better, but not by much. Plus, mudders look really nice on a truck. More so than an AT tire. This is all just my own opinion of course.

    Plus, if you had mudders, you'd have made it through a little more quick-like! lol

    I also don't know how to "mud". I've always hated and avoided mud but that day was so F'ing boring I had to do something.
