new tires

I just had 4 new BFG 315/75/16 AT KO's installed on my EX.

The place I had install them, America's Tires, was a bit expensive, it
was $998 for them with warranty and lifetime rotation taxes blah-blah-blah out the door. BUT...these are the tires to have if you do the stuff
I do. Good for the next 30k!

$998 doesn't seem so bad - I'm sure there are places that would have charged more

I like the KO's too, and will probably be replacing mine this summer.

i am running 33X12.5 KOs on my truck love them, i got mine from Costco for just under $700. did they tell you they would last 30K miles? no where i talked with would give even an idea of how long they would last. but after talking with H2 owners i thought they would last long enough for me.

I got 37K miles out of the previous set of the same tires, but they really should have been replaced at 30K.

I have them rotated every 3K...
