It looks like they had a crazy time testing those tires. Looks like they drove through everything but lava.
This tire may be the new tire standard. I feel like the market wants more aggressive all terrains.
The mud terrains look cool, but 5k miles in, they will start to sing. And if thats not your cup of tea, it will make you hate your ride.
MT = loud, not great traction, look great
Up to now
AT = Quiet, great traction, look boring
New BFG KO2
Should be - Quiet, great traction, look great. Thats a good combo. The duratrac does this also, but the sidewall is suspect, and you have to stay at a 34'' tire.
I hope these are quiet!
I hope there side walls are that tough. I had BFG rugged terrains on my ram and my plastic culvert cut the inside sidewall, made me very leery of BFG products. I do like the sidewall look.

I've had really good experiences with my BFGs. The stock ones on my jeep held up well running at 10-12psi over sharp rocks. My KM2s hold up well at 10-12psi. If these are an improvement over that, or the same I would be pleased. I'm honestly reaady for improved wear characteristics vs. my KM2s. Fact is I have to drive 90 miles to the trail..that adds up to road wear.
Im waiting to see if they make a 38 that will fit on a 17 inch rim. That would be my first choice.
Squeeze a little more cruising speed out of these 4.56 gears.
Otherwise it will be a 37x12.5r17 that betty will end up wearing. I cant wait to test them in the ice this winter.
Looks like if I want to run 37s I will have to bump up to 17" rims. SMH

Betty's got KO-2s!! I've seen it on Instagram. Ross, how do they drive. I love the look on the PM Forged wheels. I'm going to be doing lot's of burnouts with the new hemi to wear out my KOs so I have a reason to change tires. Are those 37s? Please say they drive nicely.
