My local dealer has had the K 76's in stock for a good while. I usually run an 80/20 type tire, since my use is touring with some forest road exploration. No hard core offroading. I seldom get more than 6,000 miles on a rear tire. I've had Bridgestones, Metzelers, Dunlops, Shinko 705's, etc. Decided to try the K76 on a just completed 2,700 mile trip to CO and UT. They have been impressive. Very good tracking on the highway, excellent dry and wet pavement traction, and excellent traction on dirt, rock, and gravel. Tread depth on the rear was 8mm new, with about 5mm left after 3,000 miles. I can not tell any difference in road feel as compared to previous radial tires. They did well in temps from 104 degrees near Moab, to low 50's and rain in mountains of CO. I think I may have found my favorite S 10 tire.Screenshot_20200730-110919_Gallery.jpg

New to the S10, put K76s front & rear and have had no trouble, other than them singing to me. Less than 1k miles and I haven't had them on wet roads, so I really can't add to the group. Bought them for endurance. They are mounted as tubeless.
