What tires do I get???

I have been looking at some new tires for my 2017 off road, but am not sure which ones to go with. The two I have specifically been looking at are the Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac or the BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2.

Wondering if anyone has any opinions or reviews on these tires, along with any picture of them on their Tacoma’s so I could get a good view of them!

Thanks

 

Gonna be hard to get pics of people with K02s

 

What size are you looking to get?

 

Welcome to the forum. Check out Falken Wild Peak AT3 people seem to like them.

 

I have the Wrangler Duratracs, and they're the best tires I've ever owned.

 

When the time comes to replace my stock tires I am going with BF Goodrich.

 

Staying with stock size, P265/70/R16

 

I considered KO2 but went with Wildpeaks:

 

Indeed, i havent seen a set out here..... We dont have malls tho

 

I have nitto ridge grapplers 48,000 miles on them and they look and perform.

 

Been on BFG Ko2's (285/60/18) for the last 6k miles. Very comfortable ride and quiet. Happy with the purchase.

 

Duratracs dont seem to balance well

 

A lot depends on what kind of off-roading do you plan on doing.

I have run both the Goodyear and BFG AT's. I really like the BFG's and they work well in a variety of off-road environments.

I put a set of Wild Peak AT3's on an FJ Cruiser and they perform well.

I had 265/75/16 BFG AT's on my 2017 OR for about 20,000 miles. I just replaced them with Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx 255/85/16. I haven't had a chance to test out the Cooper tires off road.

What I like about the BFG's is the stronger 3-ply sidewall. Cooper also has the stronger sidewall.

If most of your driving is on pavement, I would recommend the Wild Peak tires. If you are going to be doing some off-roading involving various terrains I would recommend the BFG's.

 

If you haven't heard, the falken at3w's are the new "in" tire.

KO2's and duratracs are still fine, but the Falkens are a better street tire. That's just what I'm hearing.

You'll hear good and bad reviews about all 3.

I have KO2's and I'm completely satisfied with them.

That said, they have a reputation for hydroplaning easily. I haven't had any problems, but I tend to slow down when I hit standing water.

Also, they can become noisy as they wear, but this can be true for any all terrain.

For the price, I don't know if I would buy them again. I think they're excellent tires, but it seems like they're falling behind the competition. At least, based on what I hear. I'll have to wait until I hear some long-term reviews on the Falkens before I'm fully convinced.

 

These are beginning to dominate.

Had 6 sets of KO2’s between my FJ, 4R, Crosstrek.... Went with Cooper ST Maxx to try something different and I’m never going back. KO2’s were great but highway w/wet roads are scary on them. Digging the ST Maxx so far. Especially aired down.

 

@inwood customs

 

I'll second this.

 

If you are considering e load check these out, deep tread, lower cost, decent looking sidewall

 

Wildpeaks FTW, you wont regret it.
