Best tire I ever bought

Have not had my KO3 very long, but have had many KO2 and Good Year Kevlar. When going in from the standard soft dealership tire to a 10-ply tire, people automatically notice the stiffer ride and increased road noise. This is expected. When driving home after having these KO3 tires installed, the first thing I noticed was, when hitting the usual bumps in the road, the ride was much smoother than before. Thinking this cannot be true, I asked my wife what she thought about the ride (believe me, she knows nothing about tires except they turn when driving). She said (no lie), “It's much better than those other tires you had.” As for road noise, the last set of 10-ply tires I bought, the first thing I noticed was road noise. I never noticed any increase in road noise. If anything, they might be quieter.

they are just ok, not great not good

these are just ok, i have had them about 3k and they are a very heavy tire. which with the weight of the tire. cut my fuel enconmy about 3-6 miles per gallon, over a lighter tire, like the ltx ms 2. the road noise is not bad but not quiet, i use to run ko2s, i was happy with them but the ko3 its just average. it would be nice if they were to make this tire 5-10 lbs lighter, yes its a at tire and lt tire, but im diappointed. 3-6 miles per gallon lost, was it mistake putting these on,

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.

Wont balance

Mounted on 2021 gmc at4 hd. Tires have enough weight on their to fish for a lifetime. Had them balanced twice and one roadforce balance. Same issue. Vibrates in rear. steering wheel wobbles. So its more then one with a issue. Ruined a 100k truck that drove like a dream with the factory goodyears now has a massage feature throughout every seat. Terrible tires ad bfgodrich should reimburse the customers.

We are sorry to hear you are experiencing vibration issues. 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 the tires sometimes won’t be seated uniform against the wheel edge. We recommend consulting with your dealer to ensure the proper mounting lubricant is used and asking them to reference the BFGoodrich Guide to Mounting Performance Tires video for best practices: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPZcVeJQaOc If you have further questions, please don't hesitate to give our Consumer Care team a call at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

After 10,000 Miles on Alaska Snow and Ice...

On my 2024 Colorado LT, these KO3's with the 3PMSF symbol have provided relatively sure-footedness in snow and most ice conditions. The rubber compound has proven itself in our cold weather, which have been at or below 0 degrees F. The only drawback to them on my Colorado are a stiff ride in the rear -- requiring me to slow down when encountering rutted and 2 or more inches of thick ice on Anchorage streets and our Glenn Hwy. Need to slow down to 45 mph in rutted ice conditions. Are they as good as dedicated and siped snow tires? No. Are they good enough for winter driving once you know their few limitations? Yes -- definitely. A solid 4 to a 4.5-star rating.

amazing tires

I had the KO2s on my 2020 Chevy Silverado Trail Boss and absolutely loved them, so my expectations were already high. I recently put the new KO3s on my GMC Sierra AT4, and honestly, they impressed me even more than the KO2s. BFGoodrich really stepped it up with these. The KO3s have amazing traction in every condition — rain, snow, dirt, and even just everyday highway driving. The steering feels tighter and more controlled, and the ride is smoother than I expected for an all-terrain tire. They also look great on the truck, with a more aggressive tread that still stays quiet on the road. I was already loyal to the KO2s, but after running the KO3s, I can say they're a serious upgrade. If you're thinking about all-terrain tires, these are worth every penny. Highly recommend them for anyone who wants performance, durability, and a great look all in one.

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.

Looking for that vintage jeep ride for your late model? Get a set of KO3s.

Good wet traction, great cornering, somewhat noisy, terrible ride. Worst set of tires I have ever purchased. Been balanced twice lots of weights, and still feel like a bad tire. I wish I had seen a true review prior to buying these. If you enjoy a good ride buy something else!

Thank you for your feedback and we're sorry you are experiencing this issue. BFGoodrich off-road tires are engineered with tighter beads to help prevent unseating when aired down for off-roading. This design makes proper seating during installation essential. In some cases, a tire may look correctly mounted but isn’t evenly seated against the wheel rim, which can cause balancing or performance issues. Please consult with your dealer to ensure that the proper lubricant is applied to both the rim flange and the tire bead during the mounting process. If you would like to discuss further, feel free to give our Consumer Care team a call. Our number is 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

Impossible to balance, extremely disappointing

Bought a full set of 5 for my truck, was very excited after seeing reviews compared to other brands in the same class. Had them delivered mounted and balanced on a new set of wheels and tires from Tire Rack. Put them on the truck, made it about 2min down the road before I felt vibrations. After hours of back and forth with TR and hundreds spent on balancing and road force, they still couldn't be balanced. Infuriating and disappointing. I returned them and swapped to a different brand in the same class and they run absolutely fine, as do the factory set.

Matt, we are so sorry to hear you experienced vibration issues with your All‑Terrain T/A KO3 tires and appreciate you sharing these details. BFGoodrich designs its off-road tires with tighter beads to prevent unseating. This is critical especially when tires are aired down for off-roading.

ABSOLUTE GARBAGE TIRES

These tires are the worst tires I've ever bought. They're dangerous in wet snow and ice. Last night on our way home the road was wet and the car in front of us slammed on their brakes to make an illegal turn. So I had to slam on the brakes and almost smashed into the back of them because the tires just slid. ABS was going crazy. I wasn't too close to the car but because of their unsafe decision to stop and turn in the middle of the road it almost caused and accident. I originally went with these becase of the reputation of the KO2s. I heard that these were supposed to better than the KO2 and from everything I read on the forums and the reviews here and my personal experience I'd highly HIGHLY recommend against these tires. I'm very disappointed I spent my money on them and have to wait until I can save for a different set because we waited so long. But we got them at the end of the spring and didn't experience them in wet traction until fall so we were well outside the 60 days by the time we experienced how crappy these are. If I could sue BFG for how horrible these are I would in a heartbeat.
