Loved them on my 2019 F150. I have been running General Grabber AT/X as of late due to price, but loved my BFG KO2s. Wouldn't think twice about putting another set on, except price.

Does the extra price equal the extra tire wear mileage? Might make the cost equal out. IDK............

On gas truck or diesel?

Best I could get was 45k (tread @ 3/32") on my diesel with 5k rotations monthly pressure checks/adjustments due to temperature changes.

As with all other Michelin products, most of them are of legendarily great quality, but an inexcusable number of them are impossible to balance, certain ones wear out in no time. I have seen supposedly identical KO2s last 70,000 miles on 2500 trucks that get used all day every day for hauling and towing, and I've seen them wear to the wear bars in 15,000 on identical 2500 trucks used for commuting on the highway unloaded. And since I was the point guy for the warranty, I can verify the wear had nothing to do with use or the vehicle. And KO2s have the highest instance of defect w/r/t balance of any tire model by tenfold in my personal experience (8 years at a high volume $2-3 mil a year tire shop).

As much as I wanted to love the KO2's, they just stunk in snow performance and I don't run them anymore. Lord knows I tried them on enough different vehicles. It's the perfect average tire, a jack of all trades, master of none.

Wow that's strange to hear, they have been the best tire in the snow I've used besides dedicated snow tires, and I had a lot of different ATs on my Jeeps over the years. Not sure how they are on other vehicles though, only Jeeps.

Yeah KO2s are good in snow. Maybe it was a long time ago before newer compound changes?

When was that compound change?

Went with the ATX on my '11 for the same reason. Really good tire, great in snow and slop plus it rides a good bit softer than other E ranges I've had. Interestingly it does take a flat spot pretty badly when sitting. And that sucks because this truck sits a lot.

They seem to be one of the 'go to' tires in the premium 4wd pickup tire category. Looks good
