Wow. I never even knew all this tire terminology even existed. Very informative and engaging video, so thanks for sharing. Looking forward to their real world comparison tests though!

KO2. Best tire out there

KO3 will have a 275/50r22 in October. Haven’t seen if there will be a 21” option out of the 100+ sizes they are planning to roll out.

Also looks like the 275/65/r20 will be available sometime this month. I'm intrigued to see how these do. I had K02s on several vehicles and they were great, then I switched to Falconbridge Wildpeaks and they were even better (quieter and didnt wear as quick).

Happy to see these will be available in 275/65/R20 when I need to replace my noisy Pirelli's!

I can search this forum, but what is the biggest anyone here has put on their Rivian? has anyone been successful with a 295/65?

The 275/65/20 KO3 is already available, we have them on our truck! So far no complaints.

For reference, the highway efficiency at 75mph (conserve mode, lowest ride height, HVAC off, 60psi), is around 2.15 mi/kWh

Will 35s fit on our trucks? I need to look more manly while driving it, even if it’s at the expense of some range.

I have the KO2's in 35" on my Wrangler but they actually measure out closer to 34" - so you could at least SAY you have 35's on your Rivian...

295/65R20 come out in August 2024. Others have run 35s with these results

I’m okay with that.

That seems really wide, and most definitely will rub with most wheels.

Great video.. Thanks for sharing. I'm a fan of the K02s on my Tacoma and will probably replace the OEM Pirellis on my R1S with K03s when the time comes. Would love raised white lettering. Whether they can suffice as my winter tire (Nokian Hakkas?) remains to be seen. I would love to skip buying a second set for wheels, but I'm not sure if the K03s will cut it for winters.
