Mine are wearing good and pretty even. 21k miles about 1000+ of them off-roading .

Have a slight bubble in the sidewall of my front right but I’m just gonna let it go for now

not a good idea. if the sidewall is compromised, it can go at anytime. and if your tire goes at 70 you are in for a ride and not one that going to be fun. definitely get it replaced asap.

What kind of miles are you getting out of your stock KO2s?

I have 16,500 miles on mine and they are down to 4/32s! They were rotated so the wear is even on all 4. I am hard on tires and hoped to get at least 25K but 16.5K is weak. Oh well Ridge Grapplers getting installed on Friday.

DISCLAIMER: I do accelerate hard because it is fun in the Raptor!

Honestly I have gotten to 27k miles in mine and missed one tire rotation and my fronts are now pretty low. My back tires aren’t too far from them. I contacted the Discount Tire - they had me call the manufacture who gave me a case number that I can take back to Discount Tire to measure the tires and confirm it’s not an alignment issue. Then I get a prorated discount on my next set.

Disclaimer: I wheel about 2% of the time. Freeway about 90% of the time and drive lake a #badass about 8% of the time. giphy.gif

25k and mine are howling like mud tires. They have been rotated every 5k. They are about 60% done. I assume the next off road trip will knock another 10% off. Already had two get punctured in the dez. Think of trying out Nitto Ridge Grappler or Cooper ST Maxx next.

Yes you’re probably right. I’m in that in between stage on these bad boys. And no clue of what tires I want to get next.. between the K02s, cooper ST Max and the ATZ P3. I want as close to the factory ride as possible but better all sound traction and also the same weight of tire

Sprung for the Nitto Ridge Grapplers. The guys at Discount said that they normally see about 30k miles on the KO2s on Raptors before they need their first set. Looking forward to the Nittos.
