    I had a set of brand new KO2's on my 2nd gen when I flipped it on the highway in a blizzard. I always felt like the KO2 was lacking a bit for winter traction and now maybe I'm overly biased haha this is my 1st go with the S/T MAXX and so far I'm liking them. For those of you who like extra details I am running 1¼ spidertrax Spacers as well
