Tires BFGoodrich or Goodyear
I've had nothing but good experiences with Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs on our 3rd gen, 5th gen, and two trucks. Bonus that you can get them studded if you're running a dedicated winter setup or live in weather that requires it.
Had them on my old Ranger and had zero issues on road and 2wd off road camping, and dirt biking. I even got 60k miles out of them (and they still looked pretty good). Very good bang for the buck.
Southern Maine here. The KO3s I’m currently running are terrific in both rain and snow. Every bit as good as the old AT3W in both. Only time I went 4hi last winter was on a particularly twisty/hilly part of my commute (narrow two lane rd) and that had more to do with me being overly cautious, not because it was slipping
My KO2s were 5 or 6 years old with plenty of tread left. I stuck with BFG because I get plenty of miles out of them and I have no complaints from the KO2.
I noticed the higher mileage with Goodyear Fuel Max tires.
I switched from the stock Goodyear tires to E-rated BFG KO2 on my 2015 F150. There is a small but noticeable loss of quickness that you get used to. I also lost 2-3 mpg on the highway. I gained much better flat protection.
Got 2 tires GoodYears A/S for back $170 for both And 2 Goodyears A/S in front for $150 Both have 9/32+ on tread. This site does sell used but I’ve haven’t had a problem with any of there tires. Highly recommend.
I replaced mine with Goodyear Assurance Maxlife tires. I'd never paid attention to tire sounds before, but when I started reading that tires can be loud or quiet, I'm judging these to be loud. Good tires, though.
I too have Assurance tires that lasted about half the amount of miles they are warranted for.
with the balancing issues on the KO3 I decided to switch it up this year.
