LT265/65R17 E ALL-TERRAIN T/A KO2

My truck used to wear Bridgestone Dueler All-Season. They were very comfortable (a very smooth ride) but I needed something more rugged for my truck. I have been wanting to go off road, AND AM I GLAD I HAVE THESE?! YESSSSS! These are the ones. These are perfect on gravel, stone, mud, dirt, pavement, I can’t wait to use them in the snow. So far I have about 1000 miles on them and I’m very happy with them. I love the rough sidewalls, the design, just about everything. I highly recommend them I really love them. I’m very happy I ordered them. ***I was not compensated for this review*** 

These tires are the way to go, I’ve had them for a couple of days and can already notice the difference. The tires I used to have on my Jeep would make an insane amount of noise, these however make the ride smoother and quieter. 

We have these on a slightly raised 5 ton van that we use for adventures on gravel roads, forest service roads, and to navigate through heavy snow on mountain roads. We got only 28,000 miles on the first set. But we got everywhere safely and confidently. These tires have been bomb proof in the desert and mountains in snow, mud, and gravel. They are worth the investment for safety and performance.But understand that the softer rubber compound that offers all that safety and grip does not hold up well under daily highway driving at least on our heavy vehicle.We have the same tires on our Subaru Crosstrek and they are wearing less quickly and have made a tank out of it. Our fuel mileage in the car dropped by 2-3 mpg, the ride is not as smooth, and it’s noticeably louder. This is acceptable to us living on a mountain.

The reviews online were accurate, KO2 tires are so much quieter than my mud terrains and they still give my Jeep a beefy look. Went with the 35” to start, may eventually go 37” in the future. If you are looking for a quality tire then this is the one to get. 

This tire is a great high mileage tire. Great traction also. Noise levels are tolerable.

A must tire for anyone! the new sidewall look is aggressive looking and they last forever!

Great pull. Wear’s even. Travtion is great on wet roads.

Great so far, they probably have 500 miles on them already. The wear seems good, the ride is quiet and snow/crappy roads haven’t been an issue. They dig in and get you moving. 

 I like these tires, they go down the road nice. They are for my 4Runner and I can drive the beach or the paved roads. We live in Alaska and reasonable priced tires are hard to find. What can I say? My husband picked them out and I ordered them. I’m a girl, they’re just tires and the look nice. They ride nice according to my husband. My husband was very pleased with them. 

Love these tires. Keep in mind that they are thick walled and make your ride slightly stiffer.

The brand says it all. I have not noticed a difference in the noise of the tires when driving. They are just as silent as the ones he brought as a fadriaca even though they are totally different. These are all terrain and the others were street. I like that they are good brand tires at a very good price, better than the ones you get at tire shops for this type of tire and it gives my truck a nice look. My tires are LT255/70R17. It does not have white letters. I think the white letter depends on the size of the tire

I bought these based on reviews. I love the beefy tread. We are rebuilding the engine so they aren’t on the vehicle yet. I’m sure these tires won’t disappoint.

Absolutely great, looks good in my truck and are great in almost any kind of road. 20000 miles and zero problems! (2014 chevy silverado).

My Wrangler came with BFG mud terrains but I hated the noise and poor ride quality. These all terrains ride extremely quiet and smooth. Night and day difference! In case your wondering, the Jeep has a 2.5″ JKS suspension lift and 1.5″ wheel spacers to allow for clearance. 

This is my 3rd set of KO2s. If you rotate every 5-6k miles, you will get 55K plus miles. I got 58k on my last set on a F150 driving mostly in town mikes. Was right at 52k miles on my Jeep Jk and they were some hard miles! Great pull.

Best looking tires for my truck love the aggressive look. Tires are a little noisy compared to factory tires. I would definitely purchase these again. 

These tires came with my Ford Raptor and served my well for the first 40k+ miles through summer and winter, so I bought them again. Just the right tread, aggressive enough for my off road hunting and very little road noise for highway travel. I am now using them to haul my camper trailer and boat as well. They hold up great! 

I love these tires. I’ve ran them on all my vehicles since they’ve come out. I put these on my Jeep Wrangler and they make it look more aggressive without being too obnoxious. They’re also quiet on the road too. 

Good deal for a great tire. They are quiet and grip very well. 

Great pull. Always wanted to get and try out this style and brand and finally did. Definitely like the white raised lettering on the sidewall it has. Too many others just offer ugly blackwall only. Also the lettering is solid white not just outlined white lettering. By far the best tread design of any all terrain tire on the market and its 12 to 13 32’s deep. These quality. Just get a loan on em thru Affirm at checkout if u dont currently have the funds and want 2 pay over time. Amazon ships fast. Thnx!

Great snow tire. The large tread allow easy throw out from the tread even at low speeds. Used for a year in an Alaska winter without issue. the softer rubber that seems to have been used grips the ice nicely reducing slippage and sliding as long as you’re careful and don’t get crazy with it.

Best deal I could find on these. They ate a bit noisy (not bad) and ride a little rougher than the stock tires (I did by 20 ply tho). If those two things bother yoy, you probably shouldn’t be looking at road tires.

Have not yet mounted these up yet as I am waiting to get my rims powder coated. I did however purchase a used set of these a couple months ago that I’ve been using and even worn down, these tires have awesome grip on the road as well as light off-roading, 90% of my driving is on road. They’re quiet, they’re thick and they’re versatile. For my Silverado 1500, these will probably be the only tires I’ll ever run. I’ll leave updates of tread wear as time goes. Update 10/7: I’ve put about 1300 miles on these so far and they have zero wear, they still look 100% brand new. On wet grass, light mud, gravel, pavement and even wet pavement, these tires provide excellent traction! Once we get our first decent snowfall in Chicago I will post another update. Update 12/24: About 4500 miles so far and still, these tires look brand new. After driving through the snowy slush that’s on the ground today, I have to admit these tires did not preform as well as I had hoped while my truck was in RWD. It would fishtail upon 1/4 throttle, but also would be fairly easy to recover. When in 4×4, I only had the rear end slide out on me once while making a left turn. Overall, I am still very satisfied with these tires. Update 4/22: Just about at 10K miles and I can happily say these tires still impress me. They still have no visible wear, the tread still has the rubber nubs and they are still as quiet as day 1. During a snowstorm, I slid off the road and got stuck in a ditch. With over 2 feet of snow AND my truck completely flexed, these tires allowed me to almost pull myself out in 4×4 (I needed a counterweight or I’d have flipped). I also drove through a creek with a rocky bottom and these tires have seen 100+ mph with zero issues. I would recommend these to anyone with a Truck, Jeep or SUV.
