BFGoodrich All Terrain TA KO3 Owner Reviews

What owners say summarised from 16 reviews

Owners generally rate the BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A KO3 well (average 77.8%), with most praising its off-road traction and its more civilised on-road comfort and noise levels than expected for an all-terrain. Wet performance is a bit mixed but leans positive overall, with several noting an improvement versus the KO2, though a meaningful minority still want more confidence in wet grip/braking. The main recurring drawback is balance/vibration issues (around one in four owners), and around one in four also point out that ice grip is not a strong suit, even if snow traction is often praised.

Fantastic Jack-of-All-Trades tire. Throw pretty much anything at it but ice and it will pull through with ease. Works great on-road and excellent off-road (Remember to air down!). Balances well for such a heavy 10 ply tire. Ware is reasonable, just remember to rotate often and you should get close to the rated tread life (unless you tow heavy, then say goodbye to that rear tread much sooner)

I run Nokian HAKKAPELIITTA 10 SUV STUDDED on my 2024 Ford F150 beginning around mid November. We get a lot of snow in my area so I prefer a dedicated winter tire.
I remove my winter studded tires when the roads lose their layer of packed snow. Last winter I had the dealer pull them off early and install the BFG KO3 that are 10 ply( not what I wanted 6ply BFG still hadn’t made them) and we got hit with several snow falls leading into spring.
The KO3’S handled the snow, packed snow and ice extremely well and far better than the KO2 that were terrible in packed snow and ice. I noticed as well that the KO3 was way better on wet than the KO2 which was terrible. The KO2’s spin on acceleration on wet pavement and rounding wet corners!
The KO3 seems to have corrected that deficiency. Would I run the KO3 all winter if I didn’t have a dedicated winter tire like the Nokians and I had to. Yes I would but my driving technique would have to change for sure!
Like many others have stated you just can’t beat a dedicated winter tire in regions that receive a lot of snow. We had over 18’ of snowfall last winter!

This is the worst product that BF Goodrich has ever produced. They are impossible to balance and the road wobble because of that is extremely unpleasant. Road force testing was consistently over 100. Tried replacing and still the same issues. Hard to believe that the company has not recalled these tires.

While there are some individual notes of balance issues, I have tested about 10 sets of these now and never had a problem balancing. Infact, my current set weren't even balanced at all (I was in a rush and thought I'd balance them later) and they're almost fine without weights. Sounds like your tires might be out of round, it's worth contacting BFG about a warranty replacement.

Much better than the factory Goodyear Duratrac regarding road noise and road comfort. The dry grip is better on roads. Has not rained enough here since I got them to provide a comprehensive review of wet traction but the one or two times they performed well. We will see what this winter brings regarding ice and snow traction. Hopefully I will be able this review after I get firewood on rough muddy / snow mountain forest service roads and after I drive it on our very icy winter roads. Here in Wyoming the DOT uses a sand, gravel mix with a little bit of salt because salt doesn't work below zero. Hopefully this tires increased silica content and siping will perform as well as my old KO2's.
