How's your mpg with the KO3s and what size did you put on?
How often do you see another LC 250 Land Cruiser ?

Daily, because one of my neighbors has one and parks it on the street

I see very, very few. Since I've had the car (for a year) I've only seen 3 on the road, and I have a friend who owns one. Here in Spain there's a very restricted quota of 500 units per year.
Thanks. I'll probably go with 275/70r18 and stick with the stock wheels. Hoping I can keep the MPGs at least in the 19s after. I live in the desert, so hopefully that makes it better.

I am a Desert dweller myself live in Tucson Arizona. We have been on a road trip for over month now. Bought it in late October with 5K miles had about 6500 when we left In December and clocking in close to 12K now. Stock tires and wheels (1958) for the couple of weeks I had with the stock wheels I got 20-21 and a best of 23 on a round trip from Tucson to Phoenix.
Really do like the KO3s they ride great, excellent in snow, ice, rain and off road. Slightly noisy vs a stock tire but not bad at all. Absolutely no balance issues and wear is excellent.
I'm in Vegas. I've only seen like 2-3 others in the 3 weeks that I've owned my LC, which makes sense since not that many seem to be allocated to the dealers here.
Hopefully i don't lose 3-4mpg when I upgrade my tires.
We have had ours almost 1 year and we live in the north side of Colorado Springs. I rarely see a LC250! 4Runners, Jeeps and Broncos all over but no Land Cruisers.
28k sold in 2024 so not many LC's on the road in the USA
More than I used to…
I'm just west of Pittsburgh near the airport and see them occasionally. I probably see 1 or 2 others a week while commuting. I see more GXs when I am near work in the south hills. There is another blue LC at work so we park beside each other most days.

my wife said "Look. Isn't that your truck-thing?" and it was a sweet lifted w/ 33s FE.
In Whispering Pines NC I've seen 15-20 LCs and GXs. Drove to the mountains last weekend and ran into a exact replica of my 25' meteor shower PE in Elkin NC. That was a first.
I’m in the desert and riding 265/70r18 wildpeaks. Heavier tires but avg. 21 mpg
In Brooklyn NY or Manhattan, not many. I drive everyday on weekdays and seen maybe less than a dozen on the road since the 250 came out. Seen half that parked.
That's good to know. I feel like I wouldn't care about the mileage so much except for the tiny tank.
After rarely seeing any, I see one in the exact same exterior color as mine parked in the parking lot to the park/dog park that I frequent. Naturally I had to park the next to it. Mine is the one without the crossbars on the roof.
