Default BFG TA KO's for the Disco

In need of some new tires and I would like to get the KO's, not the KO2. Has anyone purchased these recently in 235/70/16. The original D1 tire size. Tirerack does not carry them, or so said the representative I called.

They do in a 245/75. Make sure whatever you get has an "E" rating cuz these trucks are phat.

10-4. Thanks for the response.

Did I read somewhere that i would need to take my truck to the dealer and have them mount and align new tires? I want to say someone said to have a LR dealer do the alignment bc of their equipment??

I just bought 245/75 KO2's from Tire Rack and I love them so far. We'll see how they fare in the ice and rain the next few months. Any shop should be able to install/align like everyone's said.

And I'm just curious, why the KO vs the KO2's? And taking it further off topic, should I just do generics?

I like the cleaner, less agressive sidewall of the original KO's. IMO, the best looking AT tire ever produced.
