    after a lot of research, I ended on the new BFGoodrich KO3s. Just went up one size taller, but stock width. Very comfortable ride and great looking tire.

    Guy at the tire shop yesterday said they’re a little louder than the KO2s - how’s the road noise?

    I had the KO2 version before, but they were pretty worn down and hard. I was surprised how these KO3s felt nice and soft and I didn’t notice any significant road noise so far. Softness might also have to do with them being a size taller

    Looking good. Is it lifted? I had two pairs of KO2 on my 2013, pretty happy with them. I have them on my Honda Pilot and impossible to balance :(

    They look like the stock trd pro wheels from the earlier years before the forged ones

    They are the same as the TRD off-road wheels - just all black. You could powdercoat a set and swap the caps for cheap.

    Correct. Center cap logo goes from the Toyota symbol to TRD. (I already swapped mine)

    Went from stock LTX 275/65 to BFG KO3 275/70.

    I have had success with KO on a 01 Tundra, and KO2 on a 17 4Runner. Ko3 was the clear choice for the first set of replacements for the 21 Tundra.

    The Tundra is stock-the KO3s are not close to rubbing at full lock off cambered.

    Before and after

    Just a simple question. How ‘glossy’ are those wheels? Are they finished gloss or semi-gloss? Do they shine right up? I bought a set and they seem to be really glossy and wasn’t expecting that to be honest.

    Great looking truck! love the color. Are these KO3's a 2 or 3 ply sidewall in this size?

    CruiserPilot- these are like a semi gloss. They are not too bad to clean and I think they look good.
