Tires BFGoodrich or TIGAR
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 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.
The traction is one aspect but proven durability off road is hard to put a value on. K02s have eaten some ugly road.
2k miles in and I love them. 1-1.5mpg decrease from the stock OEM tires.
I have KO2s and they’ve worked great for me.
KO3s are way better than KO2s. Much better in wet and snow. I love mine.
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.
Thats because they are deiving shitty tigar tires. Or sava eskimo during summer
with the balancing issues on the KO3 I decided to switch it up this year.
