May want to consider the Toyo ATIII in Load Range C...
Just pulled the trigger and got a set of these to replace my ko2, local ford dealer was having a deal at 253 per tire, americas tire price matched, went with them for road force balancing and free future rotation and balancing, I have them right now at 34 fronts and 32 rears cold. First...

Sure,
I’m about 5,000 miles on them. One road trip from Cali to Idaho.
1.Noise, they are quiet but have a unique hummm/vibration to them which makes them somewhat annoying. If you don’t like drone/noise def avoid. Not as loud as my KM3, but just annoying. Stock K02s when new are way quieter.
2. Handling on road: not as sharp as K02s but still very good. They eliminated the wandering feel at speed that my km3s exhibited. They are little jarring even at 28psi. K02s def had the best onroad comfort even at 38psi.
3. Handling off-road: it’s hard for me to compare them to the K02s since I just came off KM3s which in my opinion are king for off-road performance. They slide all over the place compared to my km3s when hauling butt on gravel and dirt, but it’s very confident, predictable, and fun! I remember when I switched to KM3s how hard it was to break the truck loose on gravel, so they may perform similar to K02s. For rocks they are very very grippy, but I didn’t do a whole lot of that this trip.
4. Wear, they seems to be holding out very good for 5k miles and above average off-road abuse. Actually way better than I expected for how soft they are. No side wall damage yet, though I have to admit I haven’t had it through any real rough sharp rock gardens. I destroyed two wheels of k02s (both replaced under warranty btw)
5. Gas mileage: this is what I didn’t expect and what makes them a win. My average gas gone up a whole 2MPGs! I’m almost averaging 17mpg now with a SVC bumper!
6: PSI for my scab. I’ve found that running them at 30 psi is good for onroad. Anything over that, they run super stiff and don’t grip as well or corner as well. A SCREW will need more psi since it’s like 600lbs heavier. I ran my KM3s at 26 psi overall (this is based on their axel weight guide, which seems spot on). I ran k02s about the same psi, though when running the k02s at the max recommended of 38 (for max towing btw) they seemed to still ride smooth.
Overall, I’d say if gas mileage is your priority, this tire has absolutely been worth it. It’s not the best tire I’ve ran for performance, but overall I’m liking it and it seems to be wearing very slowly. If you don’t care about mileage… def get something else. If I do any extreme off-road days, I’d be mounting up my KM3s.
