Not Like Original KO

These tires are top notch worst I have put on a truck. Engineering from the original KO's appears to have been negated. Reduced tread on the road. No longer a shoulder protection of sidewall. No longer is the tread square for shoulder to shoulder at all pressures. The tire now crowns after 50 psi on a load E tiire.KO 3 are junk just like KO 2. go back to the original KO design! I retained my original KO to compare.

Balance beads ko3

I see lots of reviews complaining about vibration. Some people also had this problem with the ko2s. I've had both now and always run balance beads. The rebalance every time the vehicle stops. I drive a 1000 mile trip 4 times a year at 80+ mph. Never had a vibration issue. Wet road handling is much better than the ko2. All around I'm very happy with this new design.

Outstanding All-Terrain Performance

These KO3s exceeded my expectations from day one. The traction and handling are outstanding on both pavement and dirt, with zero road noise for an aggressive tire. They ride smooth at highway speeds and grip confidently in wet or loose terrain. The durability feels solid, and they look great on the truck—perfect balance of performance and appearance. After several trips hauling and off-roading, they've proven to be reliable and worth every penny.

Vibration issues

I was excited to switch out my Geolanders on my 2017 Ford Raptor for a new set of K03s. 37x12.5x20s. Look great, much quieter but horrible vibration above 60 miles per hour. Had all 4 rebalanced 3 times at three independent tire shops with no improvement. 2k spent and pulling my hair out trying to figure out what to do. Be careful when you buy these, I wouldn't accept completion of installation until you've tested on the highway.

We’re sorry to hear about the vibration issues you’ve encountered with your All-Terrain T/A KO3 tires. This is not the experience we want for our customers, and we appreciate the details you’ve provided. BFGoodrich designs its off-road tires with tighter beads to prevent unseating. This is critical especially when tires are aired down for off-roading. Because of this feature, problems might arise if the tires aren’t seated properly. The tires may look installed correctly but sometimes won’t be seated uniform against the wheel edge. We recommend having the tires inspected by a qualified technician to confirm proper seating and balance. If you need further assistance, please contact our Consumer Care team at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

Supposed to be better than the KO2, not sure I would agree.

Recently purchased these tires for my 2024 Toyota 4Runner. I have owned 4 sets of the KO2's in the past and raved about them to everyone. I was super excited to get a set of these as after reading the improvements that BFGoodrich had made to the tire, I didn't know how they could possibly make it any better than the KO2. Well it turns out, they really didn't. Currently this tire has right at about 2000 miles on it, I do not drive this vehicle daily as I have another vehicle to drive. These tires are loud enough on pavement, that it has me questioning if I have a bad wheel bearing or something going on in my front differential. It's really bad, and the drone I hear when driving has now gotten me to the point where I can't unhear it. I absolutely love how these tires look, and they do well enough in snow, I don't really off road the vehicle currently as I live in Colorado and the trails out here really require most of the time a lifted vehicle with larger tires. Currently stock, as the vehicle itself only has 2500 miles on it. I will be going to my local tire shop where I purchased the tires to try and exchange them. Disappointed as I have owned so many brands and types of tires over the years, and I work in the automotive industry, so I have a lot of experience with this stuff, but I can't overlook the noise. Also they have been balanced multiple times and still get a vibration at highway speeds. I think BFGoodrich should have kept the tire the way it was with the KO2. That tire was fantastic. Outside of how this tire looks on a stock 4Runner, which is sick, and the performance in the snow, I can't get behind it. Also in 265/70R17, the tire is 54.9 lbs, and the previous tire I had, a 285/70R17, both LT and both load range E, the larger tire only weighed 51 lbs. Smaller tire weighs more but is supposed to be quieter and wear better? Seems strange to me. Also tires are not cupping or low on air pressure. Just don't know what they actually changed that made this tire worse.

Perfect for my SUV

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 tires in size LT265/70R17 LRE for my SUV, and I couldn't be happier with their performance. These tires have truly exceeded my expectations both on and off the road. The fitment was perfect for my car, and installation was smooth and hassle-free. They fit snugly without any need for adjustments, which was a big relief. The traction on various surfaces is outstanding, whether I'm driving on pavement, gravel, or muddy trails. The grip is reliable, providing a sense of security even in wet conditions. I've noticed a significant improvement in handling and stability compared to my previous tires. What impressed me the most is the durability of these tires. After several long trips and some rugged off-roading, they show minimal wear. They seem built to withstand the toughest conditions, which is exactly what I need for my adventures. Another bonus is that these tires are surprisingly quiet for all-terrain models. I expected a lot more road noise, but they are quite smooth and comfortable during highway drives. Overall, the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 tires are a fantastic investment. They offer excellent performance, durability, a comfortable ride, and perfect fitment. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable all-terrain tires.

Great tire until HWY speeds.

2020 Tundra. As far as off-road, snow and city driving they are great tires. Issue is the tires are cupping really bad on the smaller inside lugs on all 4 tires. No other wear patterns or issues. Shop has balanced them twice and they still vibrate a little from about 55-65mph. Hoping BFG covers under warranty.

Worst tire I've purchased

Coming from the K02 I was excited about the new K03. That's being said I immediately regretted it. The tires were rebalanced 3 times with zero difference. The vibration from 15mph and up was drastic enough to have concern about actual damage to my F150 Raptor. Dealer on the 3rd try had something like 12 Oz of weights on it, which is absurd in itself. I really belive that BF Goodrich should pull this product from the market before a class action lawsuit happens in regards to damaged cars and truck from vibrating thier vehicle apart....yes that bad. I never really leave reviews but considering the price and major issues with this product I felt compelled to do so. Buyer beware...sorry BF

Sidewall Too Tender

Traction is awesome with these tires. I run 10 pounds of air in them with dry conditions climbing granite, decomposed granite, rocks and in the sand. I've recently been in the snow too. The tire holds onto snow as advertised. The sidewalls are falling apart and I'm so disappointed. The outer (black) layer is peeling off and exposing the white underneath. They looked awesome until I really used them. Once i took them offroad they started crumbling. I'm waiting for them to stop holding air soon because they were too tender on the sidewall. KO2s never had this problem.

KO3 sway

Previous tires were KO2 on a F250. I do small amount of off-roading but mainly around town and towing travel trailer. Installed new KO3 7K miles ago. Since then very noticeable amount of sway when towing. I have a Pro Pride hitch which eliminates sway caused by wind on the trailer, so sway that was not present with KO2 is now very uncomfortable with KO3. Do not purchase KO3 tires if you tow RV. Wish I had my KO2 back.
