I'm in ironman gen 2 from tire discounters all 4, i got all the tires and the mount and a alignment and balancing for like 400$ bucks with the deal they run. And a free oil change. But the ironmans have done me well they did good in rain and snow and i haven't exactly been nice to them, handled potholes too.
I just replaced all 5 on my Forester, BF Goodrich All Terrains, for AU $1250, so about US $840 at Costco.
BF Goodrich KO3 AT , I have those now and road sound is barely there, compared to my previous tires , which were Toyo Open country trail rt. Grip is really good, They are wet and snow rated , so they do really well on those conditions but overall, are great.
FWIW I have the E version of the KO3’s on both my Tacoma and 4Runner. You won’t regret going with them. I live in Maine and so far they’ve handled back country roads, rain, snow, and pavement like a champ.
Just drove through a massive storm in Lake Tahoe, CA (specifically Highway 88). I slapped a set of BFG Trail-Terrain T/A 3PMSF onto my 2019 Tacoma TRD Off-Road and they charged with great grip.
This is going to sound crazy….but I have a pair of KO2s that have lasted 8 years on my 08 Tacoma and about 110,000 miles. I think it’s because they were E-load rated so the ride was also rough. Currently they are suffering from the rubber actually rotting rather than the tread wearing. IMO KO2s are a great choice.
K02s aren't the best on wet/slushy pavement in my opinion. I've had the rear step out on me twice cornering, spin in place at a stop a few times and pretty much guaranteed to get a bit loose on standing water with speed.
Ironman is a value line. They are not awful, also not outstanding. Wet traction and winter traction are not gonna be their strength.
I have k02 on mine and i dont like them. They look great and in mud and dirt they are great but a little water ore snow and ice and they break free if i goose it just a hair.
I have the BFGoodrich ones and hate them. Burned through half the tread thickness in a couple hot summer months. But even with still plenty of tread, the mf's slip when it's damp out... 0/10
