I stopped at a local Discount Tire store a few months back to check out some different tires in person. The guy I spoke with said the KO2 BSW is an oem spec for Chrysler/Jeep/Ram. Apparently it has a different compound, and slightly different weight than the RWL KO2. He strongly recommended the RWL version...

Yep. If you go to the page for the KO2, and choose the BSW option in the 265 70 R17 size, the page will show an "OE Designation" for Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep. This may show up for other sizes as well, I didn't try.

Furthermore, I noticed they have this "DT" version of the KO2. There are only a few size options available. However, it seems to only come with RWL. Also, it does NOT have the three-peak snow rating symbol.
I thought DT would stand for Discount Tire, but apparently it stands for "different tread"!
