    Picked up my truck last Friday and ordered these tires. BF Goodrich K02 All terrain. 265/70/17 C load, same as stock size. Have 37 psi in there to start. Odometer now at 00045. Love the way it drives and I think they look a lot cooler:D

    I initially wanted Silver, but couldn’t find one and didn’t want to miss out on a 2024. My wife likes the black better anyway, but I know it’s gonna be hard to keep clean. thanks for having me here.

    I’ve had KO2’s before, and like the others they drive very nice. I could probably air down them even more but I think 37 is a good compromise between comfort and fuel efficiency.

    I have the same KO2’s on my TRD OR and have about 18k miles on them. I run 36 psi on pavement and 18-20 psi off pavement and am getting very even wear and still have 12/32 tread as measured by Discount Tire at the last rotation a couple of weeks ago.
    I have noticed a slight increase in road noise recently but not enough to be objectionable. I’m happy with them so far….

    Cheers,
    Bob

    Yes, definitely not going to be as quiet as a highway tire but not bad at all for an all terrain, I think.

    On my second set of stock size C load KO2s with now 55K miles. 6-7/32nd tread left. I keep
    thinking I want to try something else next time but I'll probably just stick with what works.
    They will start to get noticeably louder around 40-45K.

    I went with the same, factory size and load rating. Had KO2's on several vehicles and they have never let me down.

    I too have run KO2 C's on most of my previous vehicles (Tacomas/Tundras) including my last 4R. On a whim I decided to put Toyo AT3's (SL) on my new 2024 ORP a couple of days ago and my initial impression is that the ride quality and noise level is superior to the KO2 C's. I'm running them at 35psi right now. With rebate they were about $300 less for the set vs the KO2s. My primary use case for AT tires is severe snow and ice. I'm hoping the Toyos perform as well as the KO2s do in that regard.... we shall see.

    Ko2s are the most common it seems
