Blizzaks are very popular and work well on our Chevy Suburban for Alaskan winters, where the snow hit the ground this week and won't be gone until May. I also like the Nokian Hakkapeliitta on my old 2WD chevy s10. I'm leaning towards BFG KO2 in 30x9.5/R15 for year round on my stock TJ. I had BFG KMs on my 86 Ford Bronco when I lived in Nome, AK in the 90's but most the roads weren't paved. Anyone run KO2s in "severe" winter weather on a regular basis? Will they perform as well as Blizzaks or Nokians.?I ran winter tyre blizzaks 3 years without changing because i am broke. They are bald, but i overspeed only on highways and tailgate with atleast 50 meters distance. Going to try finnland tyres.
I want to save money and buy all season tyres but our roads are very dangerous. If your place is not soviet hellhole with ex pedestrian ways turned into narrow car streets i think you dont have to worry about all season tyres becoming brick after minus -20/25c. Most people here live in picrel. Their "streets" never gets cleaned, so they have alot of hidden undersnow ice stalagmites.Blizzaks are very popular and work well on our Chevy Suburban for Alaskan winters, where the snow hit the ground this week and won't be gone until May.

I run the same all seasons ...they are great from baseball to football season , and good during basketball season too.BFG KO2’s are great all season/terrain tires but you might not be able to get the size and load range you want. What size are you thinking? I run them on 3 of my vehicles, my work truck has 54,000 on a set that still have lots of tread.
Sir I marvel at where you live...you folks have to be a tough Breed.I want to save money and buy all season tyres but our roads are very dangerous.

Exactly! And -15C is a warm day! The wrong all-season tires will be more dangerous because the roads are slick at -20C and the tires are brittle and won’t grip the ice. There are lots of cars in Fairbanks with taped-up bumpers, headlights, and taillights because their owners wanted to save money on all-season tires. The ice on the roads become less slick at -30C but the tires aren’t up to the task. At -40C, even Blizzaks freeze and take a few minutes of driving down the road to warm up enough the get the flat spot out. Snow behaves more like sand and the icy roads are better than the summer roads because the potholes are filled.I want to save money and buy all season tyres but our roads are very dangerous.
