I have the general grabber at2. It's a cheaper alternative to bfgs and they last longer than bfgs imo
I have 40k on mine and still a lil more than half tread

In my case I got the KO2's for cheaper than the AT2's. The KO's were IMO a decent highway tire but not the best for off road. I've ran them on several different vehicles in the past. The KO2's haven't been out long enough for anyone to really do any **** talking against them. Like I said, we've already sold hundreds of sets of them and everyone thus far has liked them. One customer is already pushing 30k and you'd never know it when looking at them.

I've been eyeballing the KO2's for a while since they've come out, I actually really like the way they did the sidewall. Looks like they should grab pretty good. Also, I don't NEED a mud tire, as my truck will never see mud unless it's on a trail or rock run. I absolutely hate mud.

The KO2's were the cheapest brand name tire I could get my hands on, I didn't wan to to go with the super cheap chiyaneeese tires that nobody has ever heard of or seen. So I'll be a test dummy for everyone here and give my review on them after they've been on the truck a substantial amount of time.

Yo grammy.


Debating trying T6 when I buy oil again. What's the big deal about it vs valvoline or other oils? Apparently it's good if a lot of people are using it but what kind of differences did you notice switching to it?

I got the KO2's for a screaming deal, that's just 4WP retail on them. I price checked a ton of different tires, the other deal I was considering for the 16's were the DC Extreme Country tires, but after reading some reviews people are complaining that about half tread they start wearing funny and cupping, and I'm not a fan of throwing away half tread tires.

Update from this morning. It's no longer a flurry.

Chopped the 102's and replaced those fuel wheels that were pictured earlier. I'm going black letter out but seeing this is making me anxious for them to get here now.

Idk but my father has used them for years in his 67 GTO and his 06 Chevy dually and they have never broken on him and he has put them through some pure hell and that was actually going to be the brand I go with next when I rebuild my 4.56. He put 3.92 in his Chevy dually I believe and 4.10 in his GTO

I'm reading online a lot they they're noisy but not necessarily bad. My dad said people told him they're soft and porous. I may get a different brand just to be safe
