Default Blew a tire- Got some BFG Ko2s

Roving down the road today and sounded like a gun shot went off. Low tire pressure light came on so I pulled into a shot and sure enough had a flat. Had them put my spare on. Went to Discount and got some 275/60/20 BFG Ko2s. Discount guy came in a goes hey I think you ran over a E cigarette and that's what blew up, this silver thing was inside my tire.

These BFGs made the ride soooooo much smoother! Will get some better pics. Headed to Myrtle Beach in the morning!

Sorry to hijack the thread here but I'm getting some 20x9 Ballistics with KO2's next week. I'll let you know how they sound on the newer models (16 XLT here) since I have to drive down the highway to get to the shop to get them.

DANG!! Only downside to Pirellis is the softness of the tire! Glad you're alright though. Those KO2s look great! I'm getting some on some Ballistic Scythes next week (hopefully). Can't wait!

They sound great. You'll forget they're there they're so quiet!

I have been running 285/65R20 for about 8 months. They are smooth and quiet on the road. I haven't really gone offroad with them except fire roads but that is all I plan for anyway. Didn't get any snow this year to test them.

Do these tires pick up rocks and gravel very bad? I live down a half mile gravel road. I'm looking to change out the Pirelli's in a few months.
