I live in Buffalo NY, one of the snowiest, iciest and whiteout-est places in the country. For many, many years I have used KO2’s for my winter tires. Dont believe the lies. There are two types of tires. Spring-summer-fall tires and WINTER tires. The winter tires must have the mountain with snowflake symbol cast into the sidewall. If it aint there it aint a winter tire. At least it wont save your life in a snowstorm. Dont cheap out. The guy in the ditch, cheaped out. Next, you want thinner tires to cut through the snow. Remember those old wooden sleds with the two metal rails that always sucked because they cut through the snow down to the grass and stopped dead? Thats what you want in a snow tire. Not a wide tire like a snowshoe. You need to contact the pavement to stay on the road. I use 265-65R18 on my Sierra’s and I always blow past the unprepared, wide tired or all season guys on the thruway and a lot of them are 4WD. These KO2’s are a softer grippy compound with a strong sidewall to grip the curves in the road and keep you square in your lane. You will not believe the control you have. Change these out to your summer tires after the snow is gone. You will burn them up on dry pavement. That saves you money in the long run. I get at least 6 winters out of mine. They have some road noise. A hum to remind you you are protected during the winter and a hum to remind you to change them out in the spring. It is not an annoying hum if you realize they are there protecting you. Tires and brakes are the most important things in your life while you are in your vehicle. Buy the best for both. Start with KO2’s. You will thank this review.

I have owned nothing but BFG for my truck. Keep them for 40 thousand miles, put new ones on, and resell the old ones. They run highway to get me to work. They go through the trails and corn fields to my hunting spots. Hard to believe there are negative reviews. You pay a little more, well worth it.

I am a BFGoodrich loyalist. I have had 4 sets of All terrain KO's on my truck each set lasting at least 75,000 miles. I have 390,000 miles on my F350. I have just purchased my fifth set of All terrains this set being the KO2s and I am not happy with them. They have had a balance issue since the beginning and since have had two replaced because they were out of specs. The important aspects of a tire to me is performance, longevity and smoothness all characteristics of BFG's I have had in the past. The KO2's don't live up to this. I would go back to KO's if they didn't stop making them in the size that I need. Please get this resolved!! Your tires used to be great!!!

I loved my original KO's so I thought I would step up to the KO2's.Best riding and quit big tire Ive ever owned untill you get to 60mph.I feel sorry for the guys at the shop.Its been back there to try and get balanced more than its been at my house.Thank goodness the shop I got em from is awesome.These will be coming off tomorrow for a differ brand! Shame to cause I really wanted to like em.

Bought the 285's for my 2010 Tahoe, which is a little larger than the spec tires, but these filled the tire well and looked great. I balanced and rotated every 5,000 miles. The tires lasted for 102,000 miles. Just bought another set last month and hope to get 100,000 miles on these. Had many people come up and asked about them, they really liked the look.

I've been to multiple off-road parks, up mountain hunting trails, in mud pits and spent 2 winters on these tires now. They haven't let me down once. In everything I've tried the only thing that stopped me was a motor malfunction, these tires always found traction and kept me moving. I have roughly 20k miles on them now and they still have at least 2/3 of their life left. Unless your truck is electric, you won't hear them on road either, they are quiet even after beginning to wear. For on road/off-road mix, I wouldn't buy another tire.

I've had the T/A KO2 on my 2015 F150 for just at 50K miles now and they are still at 6/32nd's tread. Have held up great for me with normal rotations and pressure checks. I tow a 10K lb gooseneck horse trailer at times and just bump the air pressure up and they take it great. I will be buying another set for sure when these finally wear out. Very quiet too compared to the older versions.

I've used ko's before for daily driving and pushing snow. The new ko2's have better handling on the highway, less sway. Really like the way they look. I've run several different brands always come back to ko's . Now it will be ko2's without a dought. Try them you will like them.

Bought these 3 years ago. They have 21,000 miles on them and they are about shot. I might be able to squeeze another 5k out of them. I had a 1500HD and pull a boat 10% of the time. They all wore the same but only 21K is ridiculous. They surely do well in the snow and mud but not sure I will ever buy them again.

The T/A KO2 is an exceptionally strong performing tire on a 2015 CCSB Silverado1500 that has a FabTech 6" lift with heavy coilovers, UCAs and professionally arched Springs. I run 305/65/R18, so I have zero clearance issues. I demand serious duty from my truck and tires. Driving 25-50 miles of poorly maintained gravel roads daily and then taking it cross country quarterly. These tires ride smoothly and quietly on the highway. When pressured up a bit they pull a loaded car hauler through the Rockies without complaint. I am impressed with their mud and snow performance most of all. They are the surest footed tire I have driven on wet/icy roads. In deep snow they bite when others would not. I depend on this truck to get me to work in adverse conditions. These tires have greatly contributed to its success. The only complaint I can muster is that my first set lasted just over twenty six thousand miles before they seemed a little too thin to keep as the snow began to fly this year. However, BFG was very good to me and made an accomidation that made it quite easy for me to decide to buy into another set. While awaiting the arrival of my new tires, my dealer put on a "demo" set of tires from a competitor (a shoe with a wing) they were loud and sloppy by comparison. It really reinforced to me how important a superior set of tires are to a hard use vehicle. I doubt I will ever run any other tire on this truck. I wholeheartedly reccomend this tire to anyone that demands a lot from their machinery. Yes, the T/A KO2 is that good
