It depends on what you're planning on doing in the long run... I had fantastic luck with the BFG AT KO's on my Blazer. I've haven't really come across anything bad about the new KO2's, and if I don't go with a mud tire, it's what I'm going to be getting when I replace my 6 POS Geolandars.



All sizes of the KO2 AT's are also sporting the mountain and snowflake symbol... If they do as advertised and perform better than the older AT's, then you'll pretty much never have to worry about getting stuck, anywhere you go... And on my Blazer, I was able to chew/dig through 3 feet of snow in the ditch :thumbs:



Probably 98% or more of the miles put on the truck will be on paved roads with some light off road stuff when I go to CO and elsewhere.. So, all terrain, mud, etc. isn't a HIGH concern. But, I want to make sure I don't lean too much towards street use (which I did with the Denali) and limit the vehicles abilities too much when I do get a chance to hit some trails and things in CO, WY, MT, etc..


You plan on hitting the trailed in Louisiana again? :lol:

BTW, it wasn't the BUMPER that had the issue on that trail, it was the wheel well liner that was ripped out when I went through the water crossing.. :lol:

A good AT would be perfect for that. Cooper AT3, Wrangler Duratrac (maybe a little more aggressive than what you're looking for), the Grabber AT tire, Toyo Open Country AT2, is another good one, the Michelin LTX isn't suited for leaving maintained roads.

Feel free to fire off a PM or start a tire thread... Pretty sure this place has ran almost every flavour of tire here, lol
