Do not have experience with Nitto, but I have had three sets of KO2's on various trucks in various sizes. Last set started to dry rot a bit early IMO ... but otherwise they are a stellar tire for all conditions.
My vote is for KO2s. I had the first set on my ‘12 F150 for about 5 years. Replaced them with another set of KO2s and they’ve been pretty solid for the past year or so. Still plenty of tread left on them.
Can you get BF Goodrich all terrain ko2 or ko3? Those work well offroad (deserts and rocks) aren't noisy and grip well on pavement
For my 2011 Element AWD, switched from the original Goodyears to Continental Control Contact in 235/65/16 (calculated for appropriate aspect ratio). No rubbing in the wheel wells. Better ride and traction.
Those BFG comp-2 are pretty decent also I used to run em on my 04 RSX Type-S and they would stick to the road fairly good
I have the SL4 with the the 51’s and gp5000 32c”s. I highly recommended, I’m glad i spent the extra for pro’s and I’m also glad I went with the deep rims instead of the 37’s. It’s plenty fast and I’m really pleased with the setup.
If you really want a budget tire I’d recommend the Continental extreme contacts... I have them on my R for daily driving and they’ve been great. I’m right around 494 WHP and they have excellent traction in a straight line and turning. It’s actually pretty hard to get them to spin
Conti Extrem contat DWS 06 + Been using them in several sets on many VW's great water and grip, long lasting with great traction tire rack, 2 year road hazard, cus our roads suck, I took out one in a giant crater on teh NJ Tpk (and ya PAY high tolls for a **** road) tire rack hazard covered it, new tire next day check a wek later, had VW dealer mount and balance $16...all better
Out of those 2, K02s. But I'd probably go with something other then those.
This happened to my 2021 Arteon (pointed out by others when I got a car wash) a few days ago. It was the front passenger side of the tire. Mileage on the car was about 9000 miles.
