I got my set of BFG KO2 265/75R16 from ASDA.
I really did.

a couple of years ago when Paddocks were out of stock for a long time, I got a set of BF A/T 245/75 R16 from Asda and they were competitive on price

Goodness me, you can get BF Goodrich ATs for £226.62 each at Asda. It says 'fit tomorrow' so they must be available and the price probably includes fitting.
Not the cheapest tyre by any means, but I bought mine 70,000 miles ago and there's still loads of meat on them. I knew they were supposed to be a high mileage tyre, but this is ridiculous. Even if they all blew out tomorrow that's still well under a penny a mile depreciation, for the price I paid for them.

How old are they, Brown? My old BFG AT'S were like that, can't remember how many tens of thousands of miles they had done, but they were years old, very hard and were going to take a lot more years to wear down to replacement levels. The new KO compound grips the road much better, but wears faster. Hmmm, I'm now wondering how long I've had my KO2's and how many miles they've done
At my age, time flies by

I got them in May 2016, so they'll be coming up to their seventh birthday soon. I was wondering whether they're getting a bit old, but I had a conversation with the people at the MOT garage when I last took it in just before Christmas and they say the tyres should be good for a few more years yet.

All modern tyres are date stamped WWYY. eg 2821 for week 28, 2021 etc depending how the calendar falls you might see 5320 for example

That's interesting. I see Asda is still offering BFG 265/75/16s to fit tomorrow to me. Not that I need any tomorrow, but I'm just playing around wasting time. It must be postcode specific.
