[QUOTE="Snowsled, post: 1285650, member: 25287"] The tires have changed a little over the years. The original KO was offered in a 35" D rating, the KO2's are either C or E rated. The E rated tire has a three ply sidewall, the C rated tired has a 2 ply sidewall. BFG claims they are tougher than KO's regardless. My Gen1 SCAB is on E rated KO2's inflated to 42 psi cold. Rides and handles great, tires now have almost 25k miles on them and look pretty good still. When we hit the local jeep roads I drop them to 25 psi and it makes a huge difference in ride comfort. All that said, there is no reason to pass on a good deal for either the C or the E tires, either will work just fine. Even the C rated tire is well above the needs of the truck, unless you are going to tow/haul something near or over the trucks rated capacity. Inflated to the same pressure I don't think anybody could tell the difference, though some pro jocks claim they can. There is actually very little difference between the two versions. [/QUOTE]
