Tires BFGoodrich or NANKANG

I Run the KO3. They are really quiet and comfortable on highway and great off road. They have lasted me a while so far.

Vermonter here. I have a set of K03 on my Tundra. So far they’re a good winter tire. 4x4 is still a must with any winter travel but I can drive through just about anything.

I have same truck but 2017. I ended up with the BFG Trail-Terrains T/A from Costco on sale. They've been good all-rounders between longer highway miles but also on dirt and in snow.

I’m at almost 30,000 miles on my KO2s and there’s still 9-10/32 treads. Much better than the OEM tires.

I put BFG KO3s on a month ago and I like them so far in the snow, havent had a chance to test mud or sand yet. Im coming from general APT that worked fine for like 50k miles, I wouldnt say they were amazing at anything but they weren't terrible.

I’ve been very impressed with my BFG Trail Terrain /TAs. Light off-road use, real good in snow, confident in lots of rain, good on the road, and look great.

I’m a novice driver that has a total of 3 HPDE days on this set of tires. 2000 S2000, Nankang AR1 255 rear and 225 front. I had it aligned last year, with 1/4” toe in as per specs and most recommendations for the AP1 S2K. As you can see, my front tires have minimal wear compared to the rears. On track the lack of rear grip vs front is quite noticeable. There isn’t any wheel spin out of corners, the rear is just loose and twitchy in mid-high speed corners. I’m wondering if that’s why the rear wear is so much higher.

I tried the Nankang CR-S V2 to see if it’s any good. On the road, noise levels are good for this kind of tire, nothing to complain about. Also, driving normally, it handles rain without having issues. That being said, I don’t know if I can say that they handled my last trackday particularly well.

Once they are up to temp and I figured out the correct pressures, the balance was very neutral and it had immense amounts of grip. My laptimes were fast and consistent. So far, so good.

The day came to an early end though, due to a puncture on the front left tire. I am not sure what was the cause of this, but this is the only tire I ever had where it happened. Maybe it’s just really bad luck, but again, I’ve never had that happen with any other tire I used. Don’t mind the wear on the picture, the tire wore down badly because I did an entire (slow) lap on the flat tire when it happened, all the other tires showed no issues in terms of that.

Dude, my set of nankang tires from week 44 2023, stored in a shipping container, are worse than this. Literally sidewall cracks all over. Tossed that shit out so fast...

Personally i wouldn't do ko2s, ive had 2 sets that were installed on trucks i bought and around 75% tread left they started packing full and slicking over.
