I've stuck with my BF Goodrich Comp A/S 2+. They stick like glue in all weather and dont make any road noise.
Stock Pirellis were getting a little low after about 35,000 miles and decided to upgrade a bit. Went with KO2s 245/65/17. Love the fitment even more. They’re slightly wider than the stock 225s. Make a huge difference off-road and feels more like a truck when driving.
Ko3… 50k miles in mine and lots of tread left
Your KO2s/KO3s are excellent tires, you don't need any other tires for a 3 mile drive. They are 3PMS tires and perform well on ice among AT tires.
You can now get the K 03 in the OEM size for the 20” wheel. I have them and love them but it’s a lot of tire if you’re not off roading.
Ultra-High Performance All-Season (best summer grip for A/S)
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4
Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus
BFGoodrich g-Force Comp-2 A/S Plus
I just replaced all 5 on my Forester, BF Goodrich All Terrains, for AU $1250, so about US $840 at Costco.
wife has Michelin Defenders on hers. I put BF Goodrich all terrain ta on mine.
I absolutely hate using the KO2's. They're a long lasting tire with a high load rating, but that's because the rubber compound is hard as steel. They're outright dangerous in wet and icy conditions.
Worn KO2s are known to have lots of siping, but for some reason the siping doesn\u2019t go all the way down and they\u2019re known for getting pretty bad in the wet/snow vs some other off road tires.
