This isn't so much a review as it is just sharing my experience. I just installed 315/75/16s and the maiden voyage was to Metberry Gulch. It snowed last night, so I got a lot of different conditions in the first outing - highway miles, loose dirt, gravel, snow, deep mud, gravel-covered slick rock, and small water crossings. The tire excelled in all of these conditions, but four things are noteworthy:
I'm very pleased with these tires so far!
- Snow traction: on a long, steep downhill section, I never locked a wheel, but 5 out 6 of the other trucks slid down pretty much the entire hill.
- Sandy/gravelly slick rock: every other truck in our group was slipping up the steep rock - the KO3s never made a sound.
- There were three places on the trail where I would have engaged lockers with my old Nittos, but I no longer need them.
- They are quiet on the road.
I'm very pleased with these tires so far!
