Anyone know where to buy BFG KO2's in 235/65/17? I can't find that tire size in stock on any sites I look at

K02’s AT on 245/65 are not bad if you don’t mind a little road noise.

Thinking about this tire to replace the 235 Wildpeak AT3s with a little more aggressive tread. Like how much is "a little road noise?" Don't want to buy these and regret it. The Wildpeaks are really quiet, but don't think they will get enough grip in mud.

Some advice for those ordering BLs. Just order the stock 225 tires and upgrade when you get the unit to 245's if you spend significant time off road.

So you will hear an audible hum coming from the tires. I don’t know if you have ever driven with mud tires on the highway it’s really noisy. The ko2 are not as bad but you can hear a slight noise. If you want quiet then do not get the KO2s.

I'm planning to get the General Grabber ATX on 4wheelonline. Its tread pattern is similar to the KO2.
I put the General Grabber UHP on my OB. Very happy with them. Good in soft loose dirt & sand. Waiting for winter. I went with 255 55 18. Close fit but no rubbing problems.

Well, I'm half deaf. So the extra noise will be diminished by half. Think I'll get some KO2s when I get home. I've been thinking about some hearing aids, but now I'll have postpone that so I won't hear the hum full volume. :)

We have KO2s on our FJ Cruiser. Noise is not bad at all and we have done some major highway trips without even noticing the tire noise.

haha tbh it isnt terrible, but its there.
we were beside a bone stock bronco sport, and with the BFG tires, it looked like a whole different beast. tires make a huge difference.

Seems like some people are unsure if the 245 fit without any rub at full lock on the lower models (mines a Big Bend)
245 fit fine on my Big Bend, no lift. I have not been off road yet though, curious if they’ll rub during articulation.
