Re the BVG T/A KO's. Do you know what the approximate reduction in mileage is? Or if you have them what type of MPG are you getting.BFG T/A KO2/3s are great tires, but they are louder and get worse mileage than the factory touring tires.

I have seen 2-3 mpg reduction online. That is why I like the BFG Trail Terrains, not quite as beefy and not as offroad capable but 0 mpg change.Re the BVG T/A KO's. Do you know what the approximate reduction in mileage is? Or if you have them what type of MPG are you getting.
I don't think you'll see a mileage hit -- I didn't. While you do have more tire, your effective gearing went from 3.73 to 3.59Finally pulled the trigger on new tires today for my '23. I went around the world and then some but finally landed on Nokian Outpost nAT in LT275/65R20. They're 58lbs so I know I'll get a mpg hit, but I wanted the 34" size and the extra beef.
Please follow up with a review of these....I'm looking at getting them in a 285 70 17...They look like the perfect balance between highway manners and off-road capability (although less so than my current KO2's). Also, they make the best snow tire I've ever driven onFinally pulled the trigger on new tires today for my '23.

What really sold me on these is that although they're a Finnish company, the nATs are made in Tennessee. So you're getting a solid AT tire with great winter capability (I live in Iowa) yet they're still EV approved and quiet (supposedly).
I'll follow up next month once I get them on and roll around a little. Especially at the stock size, I think these deserve a look.
Other tires that were very close seconds were:
Nitto Terra Grappler G3
MT Baja Boss
Wildpeak A/T4W
Can't wait to say goodbye to the factory Pirellis.
