More than likely "tire squirm." Different than flex. Mine took about a thousand miles to break in. Now they are fine.
Agreed... Year ago I purchased my second set of BF Goodrich KO tires and they suffered from tire squirm like crazy, but the issue went away after a few thousand miles. The previous set of the same tires didn't have that problem.
I just put a set of BFG KO2s on my truck less than a thousand miles ago and I'm getting some squirm although it's less than it was initially and not too bad. They are more aggressive than the OEM **** so I'd expect a little more squirm for that reason too.
I meant to say "years ago" as those tires were the original KO tread design.
