I am needing to replace the tires on the Ex. I had Michelin LTX A/T 2s on it this past run. I liked them for towing and general ride quality, but they sucked off road and in the snow. I'm looking for something a little more aggressive for better off road and winter traction. I have been looking at the BFG KO2, General Grabber A/T2, and the Goodyear Duratrac. Anyone have any first hand experience with these on an Excursion???
I have BFG KO2 on my X and love them. They have been great in snow (deep, slush, icy - dedicated winter tires will obviously be even better) and are quiet in the dry. I tow a 24ft enclosed race trailer and the tires provide great stability. I cannot speak for the other tires you mentioned but I will buy KO2 again.
X-ford, the Michelins LTX A/T2 would be a great tire for that! Great ride quality, quiet, rock solid when towing, good tread life, and a great tread life warranty.
They've never let me down on or off road, whereas Michelins have.
A $1200 tow bill later and Michelin and I parted ways. Had I had some BFG all terrains, I could've dug myself out, but that's a whole other can of worms.
