Man, I know those KO3s are not the best all around tire, but they damn sure are the best looking. IMO. Great looking rig.

Thanks man. I had KO2s on my last truck. These have been great for me so far, but then again I havent tried anything else

My issue with the KO2s I had on prior vehicles were the rain performance and road noise. That is why I went with Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws on my Outback. I hear the KO3s are better in the rain and not as loud as the KO2s. I am still torn on going KO3 or AT4W when I have to replace my stock Toyos.

I loved my K03s but had to get out of them bc they wouldn’t balance. Best looking tire I’ve ever owned though and drove great other than that. The shop said it had to be a fluke thing. My K02s were great too other than the wet traction, I slid all over the place with them. Was sort of fun at times

That sliding was my exact issue with them. We get quite a bit of rain in Central TX and while fun at times, I don't always want to be hydroplaning.

Are you saying your KO3’s were bad in the rain? Or KO2’s?

KO2's. I've run them on two different vehicles. I haven't ran the KO3's yet. They're on my list for sure when these Toyo's wear out.

Have KO3s on my current truck and love them. Big improvement over the KO2 in my opinion in drive characteristics and looks. Picking up my new 4runner this week and doing tires right away but not sure on sizing yet. I dont plan on doing a lift right away because im not sure I want that. Its an ORP and going with a set of TRD pro rims as well (PTR56-35242-F1), any advice on how big I can go for the tires? Dealer is telling me 265/70/18 is as big as I can go without rubbing but have read some things online saying I could do a 275.

Thanks!

I have 265/70/18 KO3’s on my Tacoma. I have 7000 miles on them and they have performed nicely in rain, sleet, snow, slush, mud, etc.

However, I am installing Michelin LTX AT/2’s on my 4Runner tomorrow.
