Have had 2 sets of BFG’s. The falken wild peak at3 blows them out of the water. Quieter, 100% better in the rain, tire is gets well balanced and a smoother ride.

A tire salesperson whose opinions I respect told me that aggressive looking sidewalls cause extraneous noise (other than the tread on the road) because of air turbulence. He mentioned the quietest tires have relatively smooth sidewalls, with no aggressive looking bump outs.
Context is key when discussing the merits of tires. My personal experience with KO2s matches two very common complaints:Thanks to all have responded and those that might still. Although far from scientific, these responses have offered me insight into the real world experience of 200 owners. I have an appointment on the 10th and will most likely go with the BFGs unless something changes my mine before then as the majority of users had positive experiences. Thanks again and please continue to provide insight if you run these tires.
Seemingly, the KO3’s are similar to KO2s design.Tire companies do a lot of research to maximize traction, noise etc. the KO2 is 10 years old. Lots of good science since they decided on that design. No arguments it a good design but I think it’s dated. I switched to Nitto ….. recon grappler. Super quiet. Great traction
Got couple hundred miles on them so far. Different from stock but I like them. Added the OEM front spacer with the 2016 wheels. Happy the way it all came together. View attachment 3370578
