I debated buying some BFG KO2s to run year round but the lack of siping and chunkier blocks don't look like they would perform the same when things get slippery. I will, however, get some KO2s in the spring to run for the snow-less seasons.
I cant speak for KO2s yet as I havent had to buy a new set of tires for any of my trucks since they came out, but I can definitely speak for the previous BFG AT KOs and say they are fucking shit in snow. I've run them on a grand cherokee, F150s, and F350 in the winter and they are scary on ice. almost as bad on ice as full blown MT tires. They might seem like they work ok, until you put a set of real winters on the same truck to compare.

The KO2s are supposed to be alot better in the winter tho.
