Hankook Dynapro AT2 vs BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 — Compared

“Swapped out my tires 2026 ranger fx4 So last week I installed some Sailun Terramax RT tires that ride like absolute dog shit ! I learned my lesson. And will never order cheaper tires again , I decided to go with Hankook dynapro at2 extreme this time around and I love them , yes much less agressive but a better looking tire than the Goodyear territory at that came stock with the truck !”

“It is too damaged to keep using and or is it able to be repaired? Hello, just saw this on my tire a bit ago, thought it was a rock and pulled it out. Its a small metal piece. My question is if the the metal pierced too far in and damaged the tire to where its unsafe to use anymore. If so, is it able to be repaired? These tires are 2 months old. Hankook Dynapros at2 xtreme. Posted this on r/tires and most said it was completely fine. Thanks”

“I've loved mine on a 2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness. I came from Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S which I loved but that found one too many nails. No issues after 30,000 miles on the Hankooks. I had some Dynapro MT's back on a FJ Cruiser which I loved so that's why I decided to try them again. Just in case someone with an Outback or someone looking at these sizes, here's some data I had compiled. 235/65R17 Hankook Dynapro AT2 Extreme RF12 - Overall Diameter 29.1”, Section Width 9.6”, Tread Width 7.5” , Weight 32 lbs 245/65R17 Hankook Dynapro AT2 Extreme RF12 - Overall Diameter 29.6”, Section Width 10”, Tread Width 7.9” , Weight 35 lbs”

“Yes, totally fine to run them on the stock 5.5" wide wheels, no rubbing and they're a good option for an upgrade while minimising drawbacks. I ran exactly that size KO2 for ~50,000 km, ended up selling them onto someone else and swapped to different wheels and tyres just for something different.”

“I drove to the Deadhorse, Alaska (as far north as you can drive in America). The Dalton highway is a notorious 400 mile gravel road start just north of Fairbanks. Lots of people bring 2 spares. I had 0 flats. KO2 eat snow and sand for breakfast. They definitely improve my Q5 and allow me to hang with proper off-roaders (at least for a little while)”

“BFG KO2 - 50k miles, some cracking between tread, slightly uneven wear. Time to replace? BFGoodrich KO2s on a 2021 F150 FX4 max tow. From what I can tell, these were the original tires and have just under 50k miles. Tread depth is technically OK based on the wear indicator. They show some cracking between treads, which may or may not be a problem based on the many threads and opinions here 😅 Bigger problem may be uneven wear. It looks like the original owner missed some regular rotations, and two of the tires (front when I bought the truck) were visibly more rounded than the rear. After 25k of regular 5k rotations it is maybe a little more even but still noticeable. They’re noisy - no surprise with with KO2s - and gas mileage isn’t great. I do tow occasionally - small travel trailer, 6x12 utility trailer, and rarely a pontoon. Time to replace? Or can I make it through another MN winter and replace next year?”
