Good vid…my understanding, KO2’s don’t fair very well on heavy duty trucks as far as longevity. Certainly could be other mechanical factors, etc involved with the individuals’ trucks who’ve made those comments as well.
Good to know Dave! I am currently running the Cooper AT3 on my Duramax. I was considering the K02 but the price and availability was hard to overcome! I’m not at all unhappy with my Coopers. I’m not getting much noise at all out of mine. I’m towing Lamar 7x14 Dump and a 40ft Cougar 5th wheel. So we have similar situations. I’ll have to look at the KO2 when I’m ready to replace👍🏻👍🏻
Yes, very similar set up. I haven’t owned a GM HD truck but I have heard they are smoooooth. Lots of factors that go into tire performance. I did like to Coopers, I just like the KO2 a little more. They seem to help the Ford. She is a stiff ride. You are right about the price of the KO2. Only draw back that see. Thanks for watching
I own a 2020 f350 dually reg cab 4wd diesel and trucks oem tires were the Michelin ltx at2 . Truck now has 70k miles and still have the same set of tires impressed!! I have a construction business so my truck towes almost daily, skid steer , front loader,mini escavator or materials.. I rotate tires every oil change about every 10k miles I have about one more rotation left on them so I think I should reach 80 k safely. I came to your video looking for reviews on copper ltx and thanks for advise!! I’ll keep using michilin tires thanks. I’m in Dallas fort worth Texas Our weather here is 9 month dry 3 monts wet maybe couple weeks ❄️ Ltx at2 has been the best tire I ever own and like you said Very confortable Quite And durable Also very expensive lol
I have run both on my ram 2500 I have had better luck out of cooper at3 xlt in East Tennessee. I tow a large 5 wheel toy hauler. I use mine as a daily driver. I am off road quite often during the winter going hunting so the at3 preforms better for me. I had a ford f250 diesel with the Michelin ltx ms2 they were great all around for everything but they had limited off road traction in the mud the Michelin is my choice for my wife’s Tahoe and my work car I wish they made a more aggressive off road tire
I just went with another 4 ko2s on my tundra. I paid $1500 all in and got 60k miles on the last four that I had. I wanted to wait for the ko3 but they don't come out until august and I couldn't wait =/
I had stock Michelin LTX AT2 I changed out at 72,000. I could have gone further but winter was coming and I wanted fresh tires. They were fantastic tires but looked too much like a car tire. I looked into the KO2’s but heard too much negatives when installed on 3/4 tons. I went with Firestone Destination XT’s and after 27,000 they have been fantastic. I would love for you to do a follow up as to how your KO2’s are holding up after you get some miles on them.👍
I got 45k out of my XTs and could have gotten another 10 but timing was everything with winter and going to be on another trip so I went with Kuhmo's and I have about 20k on them now and they are more than 1/2 gone... My truck is a 2020 2500hd diesel soon to be a F350 with the 7.3L. New truck will be getting the XTs...
At 3 are softer rubber. Better for wet or snow or mud. But they will wear out quicker. ko2 still good on wet or snow or mud. But not as good as at3s. Will last longer and better on the road
After going through 2 sets of the K02's decided to try the Copper AT3's . I found the AT3's are much better in wet snow and equal in snow generally . Installed on a GMC 1500 . Smoother ride aswell .
I had Ko2's on my 04 F350 crew cab dually diesel and they wore down alot in a little over 23k miles. Bfg was going to pro rate me if i bought the same tires but i went with Toyo's. I liked them but the compound is too soft for these heavy duty trucks. I read the Ko3's are out and im hoping they have a harder compound so they last the 50k milage that bfg says they last on heavier trucks.
I just bought the Ford F-250SD XL 4WD 10-Speed Automatic 6.8L V8. It has the 20 inch stock wheels. What size BFG ALL-TERRAIN tire would you go with? It came with 275/65/r20’s. I want a bigger and taller look. Would a 285/70/r20 or the 285/65/r20 work? I’m not towing or pulling anything with this truck, just going for the best look. Truck use is working on my ranch and hunting. The dealership is paying for the change out of the tires so price is not an issue.should I select the KO3 instead of the KO2?Let me know your thoughts? Thank you for your time!

Coopers AT3 are the best AT tires for the rain, you can tell by just looking at the tread patterns.

After a few months in, are you still satisfied with them?
Did you have the basic Cooper AT's or the AT3's XLT?
He said his spare was the same tire that he ran on the 4 wheels and the picture he shared of his spare showed XLT on the side wall.
