Tires BFGoodrich or Goodyear
Not sure what's going on with all the guys saying KO2s wear out quickly, I can only speak to my experience with then. Mine have 20,000 miles on them and still look pretty new, obviously I need to measure tread depth to verify how much they have worn but they aren't anywhere close to be worn out. Overall I'm very pleased with them, they are quiet on the highway, handle well on the road and give me great traction in rain, ice and mud.
I saw a set of BFGs get 100k miles.
I had Duratracs on my Tacomas when I lived in the Denver area. They were reliable on and off road and handled well in all conditions. They were a little noisy when they wore down, but what 33's arent'?
If you are choosing between those two only, KO2 hands down. Had probably 5 sets and have always been happy with them. One of my go to tires for any 4x4 vehicle for everyday driving. Great handling in all conditions, sand dunes, mud, trails etc. Keep them rotated regularly and you will have good treadlife.
I put new KO2s on my ‘15 4Runner in Kansas in 2017. Moved to VA, then last year hauled a fully loaded 6x12 5000 miles up to Alaska via Texas. Drove on them all last winter and all this summer. Still plenty of tread life and no issues yet pushing 70,000 miles later after driving in just about every condition imaginable.
I have K02 and love them, they look bad as hell too with the sidewall treads
I went with KO2’s. Biggest decider was white letters.
I have the KO’s. They don’t balance for shit and are very soft. They have decent grip, and aren’t terribly loud. This is my third set.
I am not exactly sure what comes on these but the Good Year Wrangler AT with Kevlar that came on my Tacoma Off Road were the worst tires I have ever owned in 30 or so years. At 20k miles they were done. Every one had a patch. Every one had slow leaks and the wear was crazy at 20k 2 years.
From my personal experience from owning Goodyear’s that they are only good for one good year and horrible in the rain trying to take off from a dead stop.
