I've had Nitto Extreme Grapples before, and while they look great, I don't want that kind of road noise... (Were on the truck when I bought it)

I now have the standard Goodyear tires that came on my current truck, and I want to get A/T Tires. I've always liked the standard BF KO A/T Tire, but their website says they don't fit my wheels. 275/55R/20

The new version, KO2, has some that fit I think, but don't know as much about them.

If you've ever had BF A/T Tires, please let me hear your thoughts, especially if you have the new KO2's.

TIA

I had the BFG AT tires on a new vehicle that I bought a few years ago, they lasted a long time, but they were a very noisy tire.

I've had the pre-KO models, and they were great. I now buy General Grabber AT2's. Similar tread pattern, last just as long, cost 2/3's as much as BFG A/T's.

I have the KO and really like them.

Have about 45000 on them and still plenty of tread.

Not very loud (not like the coop mud tires on my nissan that I hunt out of)

I think they are made here in Tuscaloosa.

I run them on my spare truck (95 Tacoma 4x4). They're a little loud, but I don't really care about that. I've run them on 3 Tacomas and a Land Cruiser now and they've always lasted a long time.

I've had the BF Goodrich AT KOs before and I liked them very much. Last time I had to replace my tires, it was an emergency and the place I ended up did not sell BF Goodrich. I ended up with some Cooper Discoverer AT3 that have been good tires for me. You may consider them as well.

You can't have everything with tires. If you want an aggressive AT tire, you will get road noise. There are all terrains out there that lean more towards road tires but can still do a little off-roading.

I drive the Cooper Discoverer AT3 tire and it is a very good tire. It has enough tread that I can get in some mud but not enough to make them loud on the road. And they look good on my F150 too.
