    I would say KO2's > Duratracs > Copper AT3..

    Duratracs and Coopers come on sale once a month at Ctire for 25% off so significantly cheaper then the KO2's.

    Lifted trucks drive like crap most of the time. I have been happy with the grip of my Grabber AT/X but the wear rate is very poor on my truck. I’m at 24998km and the front tires are around 35% and the rear around 45-50% (have rotated them). About 10% towing mileage in there, plus I’m missing quite a few studs now too.

    I have K02's on my 17 trd sport and they are horrible in winter if I was doing it again I would get Falken Wildpeaks. at least the K02's look good

    At this point only a month and a half of ownership, not for a while honestly. I'm not overly interested in lifting it yet, big lifted trucks were always the opposite appeal of trucks, the thing I disliked the most about visually, I never liked "big lifted trucks" that much. BUT, everyone keeps telling me once I find a need for it out off-road / camping in the trails, then I'll want it. So I suppose after this summer if I get out enough and find myself wanting more ground clearance (if any of the trails here pose such a requirement) then I might do it. r
    Honestly, im still pretty doubtful of that. My stock taco was in and out of the north Ghost for years just as much as the big lifted guys when i used to ice climb, and tons of backcountry camping. The only thing i wrecked was my trailer wiring as the pre-2016 tacos had their wiring below the body instead of in bumper.. Sure if you're hucking it up roads in Waiparous for the sake of getting it up there, but for 98% of your camping, it'll never be a problem

    I wouldnt trade my current Cooper AT3 XLTs for Duratracs if you paid me... WAY quieter, similar winter grip and better tread wear.

    Usually those that have negative thoughts towards the AT3s are referring to the old model.. not the current one slipt into 4S, LT and XLT. Krave seems to love theuir Geolanders as well.

    I had K02s on my F150 and now I have wild peaks on my Tacoma.

    I think the k02s were a bit better in the winter but the wild peaks were worth the savings. I would buy them again as the performance difference was minimal. Wear rate seems to be about the same too. Both sets we C load rated.

    I have KO2s on my F150 as summer tires, however I did do a winter on them, and I thought they performed pretty good except on glare ice. I would run them again.

    Week 3 of working from home / social distancing and it's given me more time to enjoy working on my YouTube hobby and filming videos. Got around to installing some Diode Dynamics SL1 LED's into the lowbeam projectors and although I can't see I notice an improvement in terms of the throw distance, I notice the cut-off remained the exact same (sharp horizontal line, no skewed light, so they're installed and aimed properly.)

    Still have to wait because I don't think I'll be able to order and get tires installed + mounted right now during this pandemic. I've decided either KO2's or General Grabber's.... (primarily for the low budget price and good daily driving / commuter reviews.)

    If you have a few minutes today and wanna check-out my YouTube videos I'd be very thankful for the support! (If you leave me a comment on the Vid. it might help improve my chances of listing on the right side recommended bar!!)

    Haven't filled up the tank in a few weeks now since I've hardly driven it, but got out for a short drive in my area last weekend and snapped a few shots.

    The day we hit 14*C I pulled the bike out again. Was very fun haha, but need to do an oil change. (Need to do a curbside pickup I think from Blackfoot)

    Also swapped over my DR900S recently and installed a B-124X battery, which is really my favorite thing. The battery lasts ~ 24 hours on it's own and quick-charges while driving (hard-wired through ACC Fuse tap).

    DSC00369 by SHPIXX, on Flickr

    Battery in the glove box with the on/off switch accessible. Double sided velcro on the bottom to keep it from sliding.

    New wheels + tires are on! Went with General Grabber ATX 265/75/16, they were about $850 shipped to my door incl. taxes, etc. and shipped next day from a website

    I disagree, I like the letters out. One of those things though, you either like it or don't. Also can be vehicle dependant but this pulls it off IMO.

    I wasn't sure about the letters but I kinda of just went with it because I don't see it very often (I only know two other guys with it) and I actually liked it even more than I expected I might haha!

    I realized keeping stock size 16" without a lift and going with an ATX even stock size like 265, it just fills everything up perfectly (even a little rub actually, they said I could fix with an alignment adjustment) but it just looks so much more aggressive in person versus the stock haha. Super happy with everything so far!

    Find it distracts from the sweet wheels, plus with beadlocks there’s a lot of stuff going on!

    I think it looks great as-is but would look slightly cleaner without the white font. Regardless, nice rig!
