Haven't had Falken but I currently have KO2's on my 470. I live near Durango at 8400' and still have 3' of snow. I haven't had any complaints with these tires, on road, off-road, on snow or ice. They perform way better than Yokohama's, or Hankooks in my opinion and I will most likely get them again.
Both great all terrains. Which means, good at most things, great at nothing. Ko2 is the standard for a reason, wildpeaks WERE the more affordable sexy new alternative. Were is the key, not much cheaper like they used to be. Still I got 40k out of mine before going back to ko2s on my gx470. Ko2 is a much better looking tire with a more unique tread pattern that works great in the snow and rain. Not so great in mud, but that’s why they make mud terrains.
KO2s - 50k on my 80 series and still have 8/32nds tread (roughly half way worn). Mileage warranty is 50k. Super quiet compared to other ATs I've tried.
Have the KO2 on my Ram 2500. Better traction than stock on wet pavement, no increase in tire noise and same fuel mileage. Would buy again.
I use 165/80 r15 hankook summer tires and they are excellent, both wet and dry grip.
I have run a decent range of all terrains. The KO2's by far performed the best; they were the most quiet, got the best mileage and performed the best offroad, especially when aired down.
Back to the actual tires, so far my completely subjective take is that they are indeed quieter and smoother than the factory Bridgestone Alenzas.
Get urself some 33" BFG KO2s. You won't regret it
KO2s gripped well but wore fast like others have said.
Has anybody experienced dry rot with the factory Hankook Kinergy GT tires that came equipped with the 16" Torontos (In MY 2017 at least)? All four tires have these cracks along the outer channels. 16k miles, 8/32" tread depth remaining. 4 years old.
