KM3

Spent a week driving the new Jeep Wrangler JL with the new 35” KM3. Recommended psi is 40 I believe or at least that what psi was in them. At 40 a little hard & noiser. Dropped to 32 psi & loved the ride & noise was not an issue. Is did tread to surface test & had full tread coverage. Did some off road running tires @15 & had fantastic traction!

Horrible tread life

I ran these on a ram 2500. Loved the tires the are quiet, handle well, and do good in the mud and even snow. However at 21000 miles they were to within 2/32 of the wearbars. I wanted to run them again but at 1600 a set I couldnt take the chance with the treadwear I experienced. They wore flat and even just extremely fast

Great tire for off-road and on-road.

I've seen a lot of reviews talking about they wear fast, I'd like to point out that for a tire to grip it must be soft, sticky compound. Yes they are gonna wear, don't expect 50k miles, Expect 20-25k tops. But let me tell you, I have never seen a tire perform so well in the mud and on rocks. These things just boss whatever I throw at it off-road. They have a great ride on-road, but off-road, aired down to 12-15psi, it's a whole other world. Such a good ride off-road aired down. The KM3's are just outright amazing. They have never let me down. Watch my video, the mud at the bottom of this water hole is texas clay, it's the slipperiest stuff known to man and these tires, man I have no idea how they do it but it just keeps going! My hummer and jeep will have BFGoodrich Mud-Terrains for life. The KM3's are absolutely awesome! Watch the video of my 7200lbs hummer h2 and my son's jeep hitting the same mud hole. The results speak for themselves!

Good All Around Tire

I have had the mud snow tires (31x12 x15) on my 1989 Sidekick and love them. They air down to 12PSI and take me where ever I need or want to go. They grip well off road on rocks but I try to not drive on the sidewalls, yes they are thinner but that makes them flex and grip well. Even in snow and ice they grip and handle better than any other tires that I have tried. I am getting a Jeep Rubicon and these will be one of the first things that get installed.

Great tire, but pretty expensive now.

I've ran the 39x13.5r17 KM3s for 2+ years and over 40k miles on my Jeep Gladiator. I've put these tires through all kinds of terrains and weather conditions from dirt, sand, rock crawling, mud, rain, hail, rock crawling in thunder storms and they haven't let me down. I keep rotate them every 3k to 5k miles and they have worn evenly. The side walls have been holding up great and the side bitters have provided plenty of traction when needed. The light weight of the tires is also a plus. My only gripe is these tires have gotten fairly expensive since I purchased them in 2021. The price has increased roughly by about $250 per tire. They are almosted priced near the cost of some 42s. Well known competitors 40s don't even cost as much as these 39s. With that being said it opens the door to try some of the top competitor's tires for about $200 less per tire. These 39s compared to most 40s make the 39s look like 37s because of the actual size.

More information required on website

Looking on website to find out if my existing rims would suit new, wider tires. No information on website about what range of rim widths suit what tires. This is surely meant to be available SOMEWHERE, or are we meant to guess? (Australian purchaser)

Worst tires ever!

This is the 2nd new jeep I’ve owned that came factory with BF Goodrich tires and I couldn’t be more disappointed. My first was a 2019 jeep compass and tires were wore out at 30,000 miles. My newest jeep, a 2022 jeep wrangler came with these tires and at 35,000 miles they’ve become extremely noisy and the tread won’t survive another winter. I use to think Goodyear tires were the worst but Goodrich is pulling a close second. Will never buy them again.

Siped they are great for Winter and Summer in Alaska.

I have been running these 37x12.5r17 on my 2 door wrangler custom siped in the center 8” of tread as both a daily driver and trail riding both winter and summer here in interior Alaska. They wear faster than the K02’s, but aired down to 25psi they work exceptionally well on hardpack snow and ice, through 2 feet of snow in winter, and medium mud loads in summer. And they don’t clog up in the deeper stuff (snow or mud) like the K02’s do.

Great look, terrible tread wear

The KM3's look sooooo good, and they preform well on dirt but.......the tread wear has been horrendous. I have about 14,000 miles on them and they cup so bad. I have some knobs that don't even touch the ground. I have to rotate them every 2000 to 4000 miles other wise the treads get so cupped out that the truck vibrates. I can feel each tread lug knocking on the asphalt. I even had my truck realigned just to eliminate that as a possible cause for the early wear and I still only got a couple thousand miles out of them after a fresh alignment before I had to rotate the tires again. The tread overall has worn out fast and is noticeably smaller also. Really disappointed and not sure where to go from here with these.
