    I like the looks of the Grabber X3's and hear they are a decent tire. I would prolly lean that way. I have seen plenty of KO2's wear funny. I think you have to keep the alignment spot on with the KO2's.

    Thanks. That was my bi-annual spark of creative genius.

    would you consider it pillow talk??

    I have had great luck with them. I've gone through 3 sets and all had 1/4 tread when I scrapped them at ~50k miles. Those were all on Z-71s. They seem to be standard issue with all of my buddies and I've never heard anything bad. I rotate about every 10k miles.

    If they are working for you I would certainly keep running 'em. They make for a good all-around tire.
