Stay far away

I had a set of KO2 tires and though the KO3's would be just as good...WRONG. They will not balance. I've had them road forced over 5 times. Anything over 65 causes bad vibration in the steering wheel and so bad that you can feel it through a padded leather seat. I have Nitto trail grapplers on my other truck and they are much better and even quieter. These also have terrible wet traction. Will be going with Nitto for all tires in the future.

KO3s are great

Received the KO3s a month ago (295/70/18) I have always ran KO2 tires and the 3 seem to be just as good if not better. Smooth quiet ride. Work great for what I do on the farm. They see a mix of all types of terrain. Sand roads, rock roads, pastures, plowed fields, mud, snow, ice and some highway. Could be happier with how they have performed and look

Balancing Issue

As others have noted, and I thought 'won't happen to me', but can't get these tires to balance on my Toyota Tacoma w/stock 17" rims. They do look great and seem to be pretty quiet for an AT tire on dry roads. Have yet to try them in rain/snow. Hoping to find another tire shop to try balancing again because I really want this to work. The rims are true, and I've had the KO2's in the past w/o issue.

gilcheck, we're sorry to read that you have had a negative experience with the KO3's. For any vibration, uniformity, difficult to balance, high road force, or slow leak complaints, please consult with the dealer to ensure that the proper lubricant is applied to both the rim flange and the tire bead during the mounting process. This mounting and demounting procedure applies to all tires and brands. Specific to BFGoodrich off-road tires, the bead is designed to mount tighter to the wheel so that the tires can be used for aired down off-roading (driving in sand or mud). This bead design allows for high levels of bead retention in these aired down driving conditions. For BFGoodrich off-road tires, it’s essential to follow this procedure to ensure proper bead seating during the mounting process. Of course, you are always welcomed to contact our team at 866-866-6605 8am-5pm EST Mon-Fri.

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.

Great off road tire

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally got the time to change my tires with the fiasco of the holidays. I love the new tires and are a huge upgrade from the street tires I had before. My truck looks a lot better with a more “beefy” looking tire and overall with performance and looks I love the tires!! Thank you Influenster!!!!

So beautiful and good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to drive with my new tires in our first snow storm of the season. I love the traction that I got. I have never had a drive so smooth in winter. They are great tires on top of how they look so nice. The design and depth of the tires definitely work for an all terrain use. I don’t think I have ever had tires like this. I have been liking to drive more ever since I was able to have my tires installed. I would highly recommend these tires for everyone. People give me compliments on how the tires are so nice and ask how they drive, and I tell them amazing.

Loveee

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received four free tires from influenster in exchange for my honest review. Overall they came pretty fast and they are wonderful tires. Our truck drives so smooth now. The tread on the tires makes for a wonderful ride. We don't normally purchase Goodrich tires for our truck, but after trying these out, we will be purchasing them in the future. I am very happy with being able to test these out in exchange for my review.

Thankful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been the BEST sample I’ve received to try out!!! I received my tires 3 days ago and they are amazing!!! I had another brand of tires on my truck that were just a little bigger but didn’t grip the road or ride as smooth for a chunky tire. My next set of tires will be BF Goodrich it’s like night and day! Thank you!!!

15 ounces of weights to balance

I had and still have BFG ko3 E load on my 2018 4 runner. Shakes and vibrations were horrible, I was told the 4runner does not work well with E Load tires. I bought a new set a couple days ago, KO3 C Load. I am still getting a lousy ride quality. I look at one tire in the rear - FIFTEEN OUNCES of weights on a new tire? This is not a qualty made product.

Worth Every Penny – Even My Wife Noticed 😄

I upgraded from basic all-terrains to these KO3s and haven’t looked back. From snow and mud to rocky trails and pouring rain—these tires have owned every terrain I’ve thrown at them. I tow with them too, and they’ve held up flawlessly. Quiet on the highway, aggressive off-road, and they look so good doing it. But here’s the kicker: my wife, who never notices anything with four wheels, actually commented on how great these look—and that’s saying something! Yeah, they’re on the pricier side, but honestly, they’re worth every dollar. Proud to have these on my rig.
