GEN 2 Best Replacement Tires for OEM

[MoToR-HeAd13]

Mickey Thompson ATZ P3. A little louder than stock BFG and are D rated.
Hopefully will last longer than 20k.

Does anyone happen to know if the 37x12.50 version of the KO2 will rub horribly since it's not a true 37" tire? It's a good bit less meaty than a lot of the 37s people run like Toyos or Nittos. I like the KO2 but the 35s start to look a little "small" once you have some ride height added.

+1 on this.
I am leveled with the icon kit and curious of this as well... if anyone has pictures or input, greatly appreciated.

I don't like the idea of a heavy tire, but arent the KO2's a lighter 37 than most?

What about Falken atw3... Came highly recommended from 1010 tires

They won't rub with a level kit and OEM tires.

I recommend the BFG KM3s over the KO2s and Ridge Grapplers and Duratracs. I've had them all. I've never had the Baja ATZ, but those have good reviews also. A little more weight doesn't matter too much with 4.10 axles....

The 37" KO2s will rub if you do not lift the truck. I have Geiser springs up front and Deaver+3s in the rear. Even with the extra lift in the front, clearances are tight, but there is no rubbing. That said, they may rub if you are doing fairly hard off-roading.

I have Toyos going on tomorrow on my factory wheels. I was a victim of towing over inflated and unfortunately my OEM rears went quick. This is my 3rd set of BFGs and I have had an issue with all 3 sets, wanted to try something new. I will post a pic and a quick review once I get them on.

Yeah those are a favorite right now, I was surprised how heavy they are tho...

I added only two pounds per tire and I definitely notice them. 0.2 seconds slower to 60, fuel efficiency is down (when not cruising) as is braking (slightly) .

Most every other AT or MT is at least five lbs a tire heavier. The E KO2 and Cooper At3 and ST Maxx being the only ones comparable to the stock tires.

I haven't checked the KM3 weight, but it is supposed to be up 10-20% in traction over the KO2, which isn't enough to me. Further, I've already seen them chunking just like the KO2s.

Anyone know the weight of the 37 kO2 compared to OEM?
