    Admittedly that is a promotional vid. So take it with a grain of salt. But I am strongly considering buying a set before the snow flies and selling the duratracs I have on the cruiser now.

    True.. I don't think you'll regret the KO2 one bit, it's the longest unchanged AT for a reason.

    I said I'll stick with my Duratracs, but I've actually been looking hard at the Cooper ATP for my next tire. I just don't wheel like I used to, and could use better DD manners.

    My Duratracs have 21,111 miles on them, and this is the wear...

    That's pretty good! My past experience with good years would almost be bald with that many miles. (heavy 3/4 ton truck though)

    Youre not supposed to smoke the tires after every stop you make!
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    Yeah, in years past I'd buy new rubber after 50% wear because I wheeled almost every weekend and wanted the added tread, plus I could sell premium 50% tires for $3-$400 for the set on CL. Anymore it's not financially feasible.

    I would enjoy something a little more aggressive in the winter, I've even considered running full mudders, and these would fit the bill nicely, but without the 285-305 'ish 17" option in load range E, they're not gonna work on my 2500 RAM Diesel.

    I've tried a few other makes/models on my jeeps over the last 20 years but always went back to the BFG's.. Don't think I'll ever try anything else again.
