    Trail suggestions for Painted Hills/John Day area in Oregon

    Hi, I was plannning to drive to Fossil, OR (yes, it does have real fossils you can discover behind the town high school), explore the John Day/Painted Hills area next week. Any suggestions for gentle offroading in that area? Stock vehicle with KO2s, off road newbie, with 2 kid family in tow, if...

    Advise if you please

    The 8 speed did not increase mpgs to any appreciable degree in the 2016+ 200s. That was one of the main points a bunch of reviewers were bringing up, as something of a surprise. I have a 2017, can confirm that the mpg is as they claim..

    Stock tires can't really be this bad

    I finally got my KO2s today, noticed a small increase in noise, but nothing major. I think in comparison to the stock Dunlops, which were very quiet, these are a bit noisier. Love the look. My kids noticed it too, they wanted to go off-roading after pickup from school :-)

    Stock Dunlops to -> KO2s: switch spare as well?

    Yeah, I ordered 5. Waiting for them to show up.

    That certainly helps, thanks a lot @gaijin and @LBridges!

    Stock Dunlops to -> KO2s: switch spare as well?

    What would they normally do if not told anything? Trying to understand if this is specific to the tire or to the LC. Any PSI recommendations? This is a D1 load tire, stock LC.

    Stock Dunlops to -> KO2s: switch spare as well?

    If you are coming to the neighborhood, drop me a message. Would be fun to meet up. WA is rarely flat anywhere on this side of the Cascades.

    I hear you, considering that Discount Tire in Redmond is having me wait for 4-5 days while they order the tire from CA.

    Stock Dunlops to -> KO2s: switch spare as well?

    Thanks! Off-road use: Yes, I intend to, have only had it for less than 2 weeks now. Never done off-roading before, so will start with something easy and work my way up.

    Stock Dunlops to -> KO2s: switch spare as well?

    Thanks for all the info! KO2s are stock size. How readily would a regular tire shop (like say Discount Tire) do a 5 tire rotation? Thinking I should spend the extra couple of hundred, get the fifth and not have to worry about tires/tire swap for a long time. I am not ready to get to a 6th one...

    Stock Dunlops to -> KO2s: switch spare as well?

    Hi, I bit the bullet and ordered KO2s for my LC, even though the Dunlops still have quite a bit of tread on them. Had a couple of questions: 1. Should I replace the (brand new) spare Dunlop with a KO2 as well? If I do need to use the spare, what would driving with 3 KO2s and a stock Dunlop...

    That is cool, read nothing but positive stuff about these tyres over here, that is why the reviews on the Goodrich site were surprising.

    I was looking at reviews for KO2, looks like some bad reviews on the BFGoodrich site. Related to uneven quality, balance, etc. All-Terrain T/A KO2 | BFGoodrich Tires

    Stock tires can't really be this bad

    I bought a 2017 LC with the stock Dunlops about a week back, 19K miles on them, in the PNW. Was wondering whether to run them for the next 10K miles or so or get those replaced before we hit some winter weather. Would love to be able to go through the passes and hilly roads here with confidence...
