Tires BFGoodrich or SUMITOMO
We have been very happy with our KO2s, which we got because that was the most popular used by local plow drivers and didn’t find the need to reinvent the wheel.
I've been running BFG K02s on it since I put it on the road in 2017, they are finally worn down enough that I wouldn't want to run them this winter. I've had no complaints about the K02 personally, its a solid all around-er.
I live in Lake Tahoe and I run ko3 all year round with zero issues. Highly recommend them.
My K02s have been awesome for everything I've thrown at them.
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.
They’ve always been great tires, wear well and have strong sidewalls, but they do sometimes not work great in wet conditions at slow speeds. For instance if you’re leaving a stop light you can easily break them loose. But at speed they have never failed me.
They are good tires. They are also completely over-rated, and over-priced.
I got bfgoodrich advantage controls at 10k miles. I HATED the toyos, i lived in Alaska at the time and bought my car in the spring, i would spin out on the road simply because there was sand leftover from icy roads. They were the worst tires i swear.
KO2’s. Hard to balance, super noisey, terrible in rain and killed my gas mileage. Front tire blew out the sidewall going down the highway at 75 mph. Am running Continental Contacts A/T now. They’re awesome.
