BFGoodrich KO3

How's the on road driving been? I've got my KM3s dialed in and smooth as glass but I might consider these when they wear out. Looking good!

How loud are the KM3s?

 

[Wraith]

Getting louder with each mile lol. No louder than any other mud terrain in my opinion, but certainly not quite

??, I put a set of KO3 on my EB about a year ago, did i get the knock off?

There are currently 2 sizes that are available, and both are OE tires. (LT275/65R 20 and LT 285/70R 17). Everything else is to be released in 2024.

On road so far, they are as quiet as the Duelers that were on there. Probably not as smooth driving but I have no complaints so far. We had a little rain yesterday and no issues at all.

Properly written? It needs some punctuation.

"Absolutely no comparison! It’s the tire BF Goodrich wishes it made, it’s phenomenal in everything in my opinion."

Not that I will go around being a punctuation enforcement officer though. I just couldn't help but chime in here.

We need to start a grammar class.

Would be nice if BFG made a 38" tire size so I could get a true 37 lol. Wishful thinking.

Any word on when BG Goodrich will release the specs on entire upcoming KO3 line?

@CaddyshackGopher Hard to say. BF Goodrich has been pretty tight lipped about what sizes and specs will be available. All of the information I have seen is April/May 2024, but I don't have anything concrete.

It looks to me to be quite an improvement, and although there isn't much in the way of real-world testing, it looks like it would handle the wet stuff much better. Looks like the new KO3 will be a milder, more road-friendly, AT that handles mall crawling with the best of them.

I have a customer in another forum that purchased a set of the LT285/70R 17 KO 3's. His feedback has been pretty positive so far. He has noticed an improvement in wet traction as well as a smoother, quieter ride. A very stable, good handling tire in his opinion. Mileage is still an unknown as he only has a few thousand miles on them at this time.
Hope that helps.

And to me, the KO3 looks slightly more aggressive than the KO2 which likely accounts for the additional weight (285 comparison). They need to compete w/ MT Baja Boss AT's........

nice. I think I would have given these a shot except I just bought new 37” Falkens for my rig.

You would need a 40" in a BFG.

You're not wrong lol
