In that link you provided;
WTF??? What good is a tire picture in an ad if it doesn’t show the actual tire being advertised? That’s crazy. Stay away from that seller, far, far away.

These days, pictures on the internet, and like all of the "news sources", are provided for entertainment, not information.

I just love modern times . . .

Wtf i didnt notice that.

They are for sale other places with the same tread pattern, the candanian video also showed them.
 
What is the purpose of the tire? General driving, so you want all season capability, or do you want them for trails and the like?

Find all the reviews you can on them. I am not familiar with that tire. So, I can provide and specific insight.

If they are indeed very much like the KO2 tires, they will have problems with standing water on roads during a heavy rain after there is about 50% tread wear. That is why I'm going to Falken Wildpeaks when it's time to replace them. The 2019 already has a set that will go on thos fall. They have gotten very good reviews for on and off road and for handing rain. Plus, they are significantly cheaper than the BFGs and they have the 3 peak symbol.

The BFGs are an outstanding off road tire and great for driving around in the winter. So, they are not a bad tire, just not a good wet weather tire.
 
those tires are worth a shot for 31s

but my card was hacked the last few times i dealt with those guys. had issues getting the bronco tires for the street ....just ended up getting geolanders. i like them better then the bfg, but that style bfg tread is really good all around
 
I've never seen an online listing for tires that didn't say that. Patterns have to vary some based on tire size. That's all it's talking about.

Edit: Just realized it says sidewall too. That is kinda odd. Also probably to be expected. At least for vastly different sizes. Like 30s vs 35s.
Bobby's post is very concerning tho. RUN!

Im very familar with the BFG's ive had numerous sets, currently have them on my jeep and my F250.

I think the standing watrr thing is overblown. Ive never had an issue.

Anyways i was more wondering about overall quality and things. I would just buy a set of BFG's but they are 225/tire for a 235/75/15 (whats on it now) and these are obviously alot cheaper.

I dont expect BFG quality at that price point, but dont want something thats gonna explode in 500 miles either.

Currently it has BFG rugged trails on it. The are in decent shape but getting low tread wise. Ill run them for a while but just am curious.

Im looking for snow and light trail performance with halfway decent road manners. Which this should do with the BFG pattern.

I thought about going 31's but i think im gonna stick with the 235/75. I might go up to a 30. Not sure yet. I like how it sits now.

I might just buy a set of those goodyear wrangler radials for it....i know those are good tires and come in about 105/tire.

I found some bad ass looking mud tires pretty cheap but i dont really know if i wanna live with those rolling down the road. Plus most the trails id run it on are up north around my buddies property and are sand. I dont think mud tires would do great in the sand lol

My KO2s have been great until recently. We had some pretty heavy rains for an extended period of time not long ago when the water issue reared it head. The tread are about half worn. So I think that may be the issue. Not dangerous, just annoying.
