The Legend, Evolved: BFGoodrich KO3 All-Terrain Tire T/A KO3
For decades, one tyre has been the undisputed benchmark for all-terrain performance: the T/A KO2. It’s the tyre that defined a category. But legends aren’t just born; they’re made. And now, they’re remade.
The BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 is here, raising the bar in toughness, durability, and traction. It’s not just an update; it’s the next evolution, taking everything that made the KO2 a legend and making it tougher.
Engineered to Endure
The KO3 is engineered for the long haul, especially on the punishing surfaces that wear other tyres down. Featuring a new tread pattern and a new all-terrain tread compound, this tyre is specifically designed to provide superior durability and longevity, even on sharp gravel. It resists chipping and tearing, ensuring your adventure continues long after the pavement ends.
Built to Overcome
The greatest fear off-road is a sidewall-splitting snag. The KO3 meets this challenge with race-proven technology. Developed and tested in the brutal deserts of Baja, our CoreGard Technology provides excellent sidewall toughness. But it doesn’t stop there. The Advanced Deflection Design helps prevent sticks, stones, and other trail debris from snagging, splitting, or puncturing the critical sidewall failure zone. This is your armour against the trail’s worst.
Designed to Do It All
An all-terrain tyre has to do everything, everywhere. The KO3 delivers. Even when conditions are at their worst, this tyre is made to grip. Building on the KO2’s legendary all-season performance, the KO3 introduces a serrated shoulder design and advanced mud-phobic bars. These features work together to improve upon its predecessor’s mud and snow traction, providing more biting edges and actively clearing the tread for a confident grip.
This is the ultimate “do-it-all” tyre for your light truck, SUV, or crossover, giving you the confidence to get there and get back.

Great tires. Definitely live up to KO series
Ive always had good luck with KO2 thought id try the new KO3. They are great. Quieter, better traction in rain, good in mud (for all terrains), great in snow. If your considering trying these instead of the KO2, just do it. You will be happy. So far I have 8000 miles on them and nice flat wear.

Excellent in heavy rain
Fairly new. Bought these to replace small stock tires on 2022 F350 dually diesel 4wd. Went up to a 285/75R17. BFG was only tire I found in 75 profile. Looking for as much height increase as possible w/o having to buy new wheels (stock ones on a KR aren’t cheap)!So far, they’re as quiet as factory Michelins (that’s saying a lot), better in heavy rain and a more comfortable ride (lower air pressure helps). As these are an all terrain tire, I expect better traction in dirt gravel as we sometimes encounter in RV parks. The truck is primarily a tow rig, so we don’t do any real off-roading. Besides, it cost way too much to risk scratching or denting!I love the bigger size, much better aesthetic, allow for lower pressure at same load. Did very mild 1” lift to guarantee clearance at full lock turns. Again, this truck is a highly accessorized tow queen, well over $100k. Not a lifted show toy, nor a rock climber, but a comfortable tow vehicle for a 16k lb 39’ 5th wheel.Hoping these hold up as well as Michelins. They bought BFG, so I’m optimistic about that. I will update my review after I have more mileage and towing use on them.

295/70/r17 fits perfectly in a f250, do not need lift kit
I should have bought this sooner, there are several stretches on my ranch where I always had to use 4×4, but with this tire I don’t need to. Amazing grip, amazing look, is not noise, fits perfectly in a f250.I don’t like lifting trucks, i think isn’t safe, so I did wanted to have the biggest tire as a possible not using a lift kit, and this tire just fits perfect.So far I haven’t had any problems with small stones stuck in the tire.Delivery had a lot of delays I hope next time they do better!Tire is expensive, but worth the money you pay for.

Happy with my KO3’s
I replaced KO2’s with the KO3’s. The “2’s” were a great tire, quite on the street, my truck handled like it was on rails. I didn’t think that the “3’s”could be much better but they are. They ride better and are noticeably quieter but will still take on the rural Idaho winter. I don’t know of a better all season tire.
