Needed tires badly and do a good amount of highway driving then a bit of off-road during the fall months. I think the KO2s look great and the white letters are classic but I couldn’t justify all the mpg drop I was reading, plus weight. I also didn’t want to buy anything solely based on looks. This was a medium that I’m happy with. Discount Tire mentioned they’re not seeing many people get these but also many people don’t know about them. 245/65/17

I put those tires on my Big Bend at 1400 miles. I also had the 1.5 inch lift on it. I immediately lost 5 mpg. However, I used Forscan to change the tire size and regained 4 mpg immediately. I also got rid of the stupidly annoying double beep. And just for grins, I changed the fog lights to stay on when the high beams are operating.

In my Tremor forum we call that Bambi mode on the fog light w/HBeams......

@Wandering Pinto thank you for your review, I used "quiet on the highway" to recommend this tire to another forum member. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to post.

I put 235 65 17 Trail Terrains on my Badlands replacing the original 225 Scorpions. Great traction and quiet on the highway and look great!

That looks awesome! I love that camper as well.

I think these might be my next choice. I have had K02’s since 7k and currently sitting at 27k on the odometer. To be expected they are noisy but I’m not as impressed with their on road performance or character as I expected… especially for one that’s been on the market for 20+ years.

Do you experience any tire rub when turning with the 245’s on?
I'm still at stock height and as of yet (about 1 year on) I haven't noticed any rub with the 245s.

Those are the tires I want to put on my wife's 21 BS/BB in the Summer to replace the Continental's that are on it & put them on my 05 F150. Thanks for the review, they look nice on your BS.
