Still going at 40k

I drive a 2017 Chevy Colorado ZR2. I got a set of the BFG Mud Terrain tires at around 31k miles in June of 2020 as a replacement of the awful stock tires. I was having sidewall punctures with the wimpy p-metric stock tires they put on these new trucks these days. I am at 80k and still have a bit of life in them. I run them in mud, rocks and heavy gravel. A bit noisy but that’s to be expected . I won’t trust anything else. I’ve always used BFG tires beginning in the late 90s. Mostly the KO all terrains. I’ve seen them evolved over the years. I also ran the older kM2 tires on a Chevy 2500HD. I’ve owned Land Rovers, Chevy trucks and others and have always insisted on BFG all terrains and or the mud terrains. Best tire out there!

Best mud tire on the market

I put a set of KM2s on my 08 Tundra a few years after I bought it and they were expensive but I believe they are the best quality mud tire on the market. They are a little noisy and they don’t do great on pavement but they are outstanding when you get in the mud and the way they make your truck look is just worth it IMO. After the KM2s eventually wore down after about 50k miles I went ahead and got some KM3s and they look even better than the 2s and I feel like they are a little quieter on the highway. Not to mention the 2 sets and over 100k miles over all kinds of misquite thorns and road debris, I’ve never had a leak in any of my BFGs so far. I can’t say the same about the Michelins on my Camry or the Goodyears on my Tacoma. And don’t settle for the cheaper Taiwan made Nittos either.

Awesome tire, so happy 117K miles

I have always had KM2's on my trucks. Bought a new Chevy LTZ in 2016. Put a set of of KM3's on this vehicle in 2017. Still on the truck, 117K miles and still going. Will be replacing this month with the the same. I have been across sloppy goose fields, snow, water logged roads. Loving this tire. Rotated every 5K, rotated and balances every 10K. Cany wait for new set.......keep on miling!

Best tire I've ever bought for on and off road

I bought these tires a few years ago. Pro's: They are quiet for a mud terrain tire. Excellent traction in snow. I was plowing through 12" deep snow effortlessly. Any deeper and I will be pushing snow with my front end. They also worked well in total ice too. Drove all over Colorado mountains in the winter with no issues. They shine is the soupy snow too. This is where the mud design come into play I can take highspeed turns no issues. Rain no issues. I do test my braking in adverse conditions i.e. press hard on the brakes and see if they slide. This give me a gauge to my stopping distance. Con's: They will cup if you don't rotate the tires often. My tire store offers free rotation every 3,000 miles. They are an aggressive tire with a softer compound and will wear faster. So don't expect 50,000 miles.

Miles of Confidence

I bought these KM3’s 2 months ago. So far they have been in the snowy mountains, icy pavement, heavy rain downpours on the highway, deep mud, and just recently sand. I have ran them at 50 psi with no sway and they absorb bumps well at speed. After 5k miles I project them to reach 65k miles... but that is a very very early projection. Anything over 50k miles and there is no competition in the mud terrain tire category.

KM3 GREAT TIRE!!!

I have had several brands of MT over the years. When the KM3 first came out I bought the first set that Tire World got thru the door. Right now I have 70000 miles on them and they need to be replaced. They have wore good for a MT, they ride great and are not too loud. My 2014 F250 is not a pavement prencess and the KM3s have gotten me thru mud that others could not make it thru. I have been trying weeks to find 35x12.5x18 replacements with Zero luck. I am hoping I can find some soon before I have to go to another brand. Don't hesitate to buy these tires if you find them.

Awesome tires

I had bfg ko2's and decided to get some mud terrains and went with the KM3. I am happy that I did because these tires perform better off road and look cooler too. These perform well on the street and in the rain. I used to put my truck in 4wd sometimes when it would rain a lot and the streets would get flooded but with the mud terrain km3's I don't have to. I have had these tires for about 18k miles, used mostly on the road, and they still look awesome and have plenty of life left on them.

100k from 33 12.5 17s!

Daily driven mud terrain in a fully armored 4runner weighing about 5600 lbs empty and about 5900 lbs loaded up. 45psi on street and 8 - 17psi off road, rotated w spare every 5000 to 7500 miles. Alignment on point. Stay on top of pressure. Once they start cupping from low psi or alignment, they likely won't correct themselves. Start getting noisey when reaching end of life. Hope km3s will be as good.

Great looking tires!

Bought 5 of them around June 2021, have about 35,000. moles on them. They’re on a 2021 Toyota Tacoma Off Road 4x4 , ride nice even today with 35% of the tread gone. No excessive noise. Pretty quiet to be truthful. Won’t hold gravel in the treads like All Terrain will. Definitely buy again

2 out of 5 bad tires

I will start with saying that i have been a fan of BFG for a long time and have ran many different sets on street and off road and this is the first set i have been disappointed in. I have been running these tires for about 5 months now on a jku. So far my experience. One of the tires has a crack in the rubber about a 1/4" deep running around the tire about an 1" about the bead area that looks to be a defect from manufacturing. Then today I had them balanced because I has some vibrations but none of them had lost any weights but they were all severely out of balance and the shop refused to balance one because it required 24 onces of weight. The only redeeming factor for these tires is that they do have good traction off road.
