Sand/road tire?

[KickingTiger]

Thoughts on swapping out the K02s for the Bridgestone All-Terrain tires? We do a lot of driving on the sand and yes long road trips. Looking to reduce the noise and add some on road precision.

thats exactly what I'm thinking about. Bridgestone Dueler A/T 001...XL load rated, more solid shoulders for less noise and better tracking. They are 10 lbs lighter that the K02s. I bet they are way better on the road
