I had the BFG KO2’s on my last truck, they looked great, but I got tired of the Rough ride even I had them aired down to 45. Also, they did not do well in the rain, especially when I towed my camper. I was seriously looking at Yokohama Geolandar G015's, wish I had gone with them
they were too wide.
I just traded today for a 24 Laramie, with the pirelli scorpion verde. So far they ride really nice, plus they are XL loaded for towing.

You will love the Pirelli's for hauling *** and cornering but I burned through mine in 35k miles like butter.
It's the same tire Ram puts on the Hellcat etc. Nice racing tire but soft.

I had Nitto Recon Grappler 275/55/20 LT E rated for a couple years and they are pretty loud and were worthless on wet pavement. They also degraded ride quality. I had them inflated at 51 PSI as recommended by Nitto.
I just got highway tires now and cannot believe how quiet they are and ride quality is back to SUV level.

I concur. Had the BFG KO2's on two of my vehicles. Noisy and rough. Not sure why, but for some reason they are especially noisy on smooth blacktop highways 🤷‍♂️. They look great, but definitely ruin the smooth comfortable ride! Never again.
