But I remember back in the day (PS4s are ancient now) when I swapped from Dunlop SportMaxx RT2s to PS4s and two things stood out - how much mechanical grip they have, and how long they take to warm up.
On cold mornings, they genuinely felt like track slicks. The Dunlops would be "warmed up" and gripping fine by the time I reached the main road - maybe half a mile.
The PS4s, on the other hand, would still feel twitchy and unpredictable halfway to work (~18 miles). It took a good 8-9 miles before they came in. And before they warm up, they are very on/off - loads of mechanical grip, but almost no compound grip, so they can suddenly let go.
Bought mine this summer, they are AMAZING! Just yesterday I was driving in snowfall when the roads weren't great, I've had almost zero issues with them.
Bf Goodrich KO2 ????
Dunlop SportMaxx RT2
I paid about $65 per tire (225/40/18) + shipping and then had a local tire shop mount them. They have been great in all conditions (N. Carolina) during the 8,000mi they’ve been on.
Been running 33\u201d KO2s on my Tacoma since \u201821 in NH. Great traction on the ice & snow, no issues with them up here.
I did exactly one road / camping trip in my Gen 2 Tundra with the stock BFGs. I got 19 mpg highway. I also got stuck in the desert.
Corolla 49 k on dunlop got ok tread life still, did drive carefully
Personally i wouldn't do ko2s, ive had 2 sets that were installed on trucks i bought and around 75% tread left they started packing full and slicking over.
I'm at 22k miles on my 2024 RR, and the KO3s are looking pretty worn down, especially in the rear. I live in NYC, rarely ever take it off the pavement, and I am not impressed how the KO3s perform in the rain.
We all know they are lackluster tires.
