@ToiletDuck have you taken them off-road at all? If so, how did they do?

Yea and they handled what they could. Texas coast swamp still won. There’s just some things you don’t make it through no matter what you’re in lol. No complaints. To be fair it’s rarely about the tire as much as the driver. An AT is an AT for the most part. Spent my life on a ranch working rice fields growing up, hunting in the winters, all sorts of muddy roads. Only ever stuck a 2wd twice. That 1mm difference in rubber between different ATs isn’t going to make any real difference in ability. Some feel a little “splashy” on the road but these feel great. Driving through sand on the beach going fishing isn’t any issue.

Dewamett - do you have any images of those KO2s you can share? I've had those tires on my trucks for years and I'm ready to change the wife's D5 but I'm not sure if I'll go with KO2s or LTXs.

Cheers

I just had a tire go down yesterday on the D5. I am going to throw on Pirelli’s SCORPION ALL TERRAIN PLUS 275/55/20 tomorrow. Is there any rubbing? I do not have lift rods and don’t really plan on adding them. How have they preformed on the street. Tire noises at highway speeds?
I am coming from the factory good year eagle F1.


Last time I hit some mud in those tires it didn’t end well.
