    Looking forward to your impressions. I have read very good reviews on these vs the KO2's. Hopefully they will start releasing more sizes.

    Although almost never the cheapest nor lightest, BFG makes a great performing tire.

    Although I've currently got KM3s on my Taco atm, I have had their ATs on previous vehicles and loved them.

    I honestly won't go to any other brands for off roading.
    Even my current MTs are not that loud on pavement and have a good ride on road overall.

    I commented on a IG post and someone from BFG responded back and I shared I would like to see a 285/75/17 "C" or and or a 35/11.5/17 "C" and they stated they would pass it onto the engineers. Fingers crossed.

    Thanks! They definitely ride stiffer obviously compared to the stockers but that’s the price we pay to play I guess. Haven’t had any precipitation yet to test BFGs answer to KO2’s wet weather “issues” but I anticipate good results. I myself haven’t had any issues with KO2s in the past but I guess everyone has their opinions. They might be a little louder on road but maybe I just got use to the soft stockers.
