I have had GREAT luck with KO2's...Sand, rock, street-not the best for mud but no A/T really is. Have had them on all three of my Raptors, my last two RAM's (TRX came with Goodyears) and have loved them on my 20' Ruby 2-door...Both the 35's I put on day after delivery and the 37x12.50 D KO2's I am running currently. (Only ones I didn't like were the 37x12.50 C which I switched out after just 100 miles) Looking forward to the new KO3's, they look a bit more aggressive than the KO2's!

What was wrong with the C rated?

They were almost 3/4" narrower than both the 35" KO2 C's and also the 37" KO2' D's. Outside of the narrower stance, I did not like the added sidewall flex on turns / quick maneuvers compared to either the 35" C KO2's or 37" D KO2's. Totally happy with the 12.50x37 D KO2's on my JLR.

Well KO3s are coming... so makes sense to discount the K02s to get rid of inventory.

Thread kind of flew off course like a Chinese Weather Balloon, it was really about sharing a deal going so others could score. Sort of turned in to a debate about who likes what and why -- all anecdotal.

That said, this is the Internet :)

Tires arrived two days after the order.

Yeah funny that they wouldn't have the deal on all sizes I'd think, also DD didn't have the same deal going so maybe they just had a few too many 37's :)

Funny people talk trash about KO2s but I tell you what, I bought an FJ Cruiser today with Kenda tires, on the way home they totally lost traction on the highway almost went into the other lane with them. I have never lost traction in Alaska like that with my KO2 and stopping distance was a shock with these tires compared to locking up my KO2s. At least 2 times as much room to stop with these tires. I think these tires get hard are something in the cold.

First thing that will be replaced is tires with BFG KO2s. Great winter tires besides something like soft Blizzaks for a car but can't think of a good reason to run them on Jeep. I drive on winter streets half of the year but today was a true PUCKER FACTOR with these turds on as tires. BFG is the win for me in the winter.
