Agreed, just a hair bigger and a pound more than the OEM KO2 with deeper tread

BFg KO2 315 70 17 34.4 64 C 15/32

Those tires are looking good. I will look forward to some information on how they perform for you.

Have been looking at the Atz's, local place for me out the door for 1.044.25. Road hazard, lifetime rotation, lifetime balancing, flat repair. My factory tires are done at 32,000. Kinda ****** me off. Factory psi, rotation every 5000. Not to happy with my first every set of bfgoodrich tires.

For the factory set, that’s par for the course from what I’ve read. That OEM tire was designed for the Raptor and varies from the standard KO2, which does better tread life wise.

I noticed that too the old kos I bought for my gen 1 lasted 60 thousand miles. These look like they will be done in 30-35 thousand miles

I have a co worker that had them on his past jeep, he got good life out of his. Even some here seem to do ok, others not so much. Sure the compound is softer for our trucks verses the normal ko2's. Still leaning towards the Mickey Thompson's , maybe the **** Cepek's also. Same company makes both.
