So I'm on the fence whether I should get Gupton put on my 2 in lift or not. I am leaning yes so everything is under warranty and they can't deny anything. If I do I might as well get the 37s too because it will lol funny on 33s of the 3 options they gave me which would you choose and why. Price is a factor on the kids but if they are really that great then I might go with this. Also how do I warranty the tires do they even have a warranty?

KO2 all day long
why is it worth 80 more per tire? Does it last longer? Does it handle better? More quiet?

I have ko2 at on my jk. 60k miles driven and 15k towed behind motor home and still better than 50% tread. Will replace due to cracking before tread wears out.
although I do 5 tire rotations.

Wow the ATX are 80 lbs the ko2 65lbs and the MTs 78. Thats a crazy amount of difference for the ATs 15 lbs has got to help with your mpgs, braking, and acceleration... But does this mean its an overall weaker tire?

I’ve run two of the three on that list (ATX and KO2s) for the price difference I didn’t think the KO2s were that much better than the Generals. The Generals did better in the snow and had similar road noise levels.

The KO2s also run a bit smaller I just swapped some 37 KO2S out for 37 Baja Boss A/Ts and they measured out almost an inch taller mounted on the jeep.

Compared to the General Grabbers? I’ve had older generation generals. im sure they are better but the KO2s last a long time. I’ve owned 6 sets now. Noise is really low, great in all weather conditions. also, when it rains, they feel planted To the wet road. Not to mention they look great.

I vote BFG KO2S, never had a bad experience with them and have ran 8 sets. When I had 35's I ran 315 70 17 BFG KO2s and loved them. They had 17,000 miles on the when I took them off and sold them to go to 37's and probably 85% tread left on them. I would have went with them in a 37 but they run small so I opted for Goodyear MTRs at the time. I'm now running 37 12.5 17 Kanati Trail Hogs and I gotta say they are as quiet on the road as my BFGs were and they ride as good so far. I can't speak about how well they will wear but so far I'm pleased. Have not had them off road yet either but we had a bad rain storm about 2 weeks ago, some of that stuff people put over in and they did great, maybe even better than the KO2s.

Mine of the Kanati's, I know they aren't a option but I got these for $1030, and after mount and balance out the door for $1200.

I've had 15 sets of KO2s and loved them.......... LMAO, had to pump those numbers up for fun.

My last set I got 65k out of them and they might have had another 5k left in them when I sold my Yukon.

General Grabbed ATX for the sole reason that those are what I’ve opted for on mine.

Had KO2s on my last truck and I loved them. Fantastic tire, even at that price.

👍. Keep in mind that by rotating the spare in, I get about 20% more right out of the gate plus all tires wear at the same
