They even offer a 34x10.50r17 http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/tire...rrain-t-a-ko2/tire-details?getPrice#techspecs
Am I reading correctly $367 for a D-rated 34" tire?
Almost guaranteed to be my next tire. It will be March before they come out in the size I want, but I doubt I'll be ready to buy before then anyway.
Other than the sidewall being a little different it looks like the existing KO2.Maybe they wont suck as bad as its predecessor.....
It's supposed to be a different compound. I wouldn't expect them to last as long. On the other hand, maybe they won't be like rocks at 25,000 miles.

I don't think they suck, we have had 6 or 7 sets of them over the years without a single issue.
They have been great for mega miles of dirt road pounding too. For me. Honestly, can't think of anything that has worked better for me on long miles of varied dirt. Currently running a set of them, a set of Kumhos a set of Duratracs a set of KM2's and a set of Falken's on my various rigs. The Duratracs have been great so far, but they only have 8,000 miles on them so way too early to say much. Have run a bunch of others before too. Nothing has been any better than the KO's for normal dirt road use, for me.

For what it's worth, I spoke to a Costco tire guy today and he didn't know when the KO2's would be available but they showed as pending inventory on his computer and had several sizes listed.*
A 285/75/16 listed at $214.00 a tire, a regular KO was $228.00.
I wonder if the KO's will drop in price towards the end of their run or if they will remain slightly higher to keep initial interest high in the KO2's?
and did you notice no 15 inch sizes... guess they are being phased out as well... I love my KO that I have now... they do great for me! I use them on my jeep to deliver pizza at night and I run them at 20 psi just to keep the deep ruts and potholes from killing me!
