BFG All-Terrain T/A K02 ......perfect
We have been using the 35x12.50x17 K02's for a little over a year now, and have managed to put about 25,000 miles on them, from towing, daily driving, and trail driving on a 2007 2500 Diesel Ram. I am amazed at how well the tires have held up, the wear is minimal, I honestly thing we'll get 60-75,000 out of them. BFG nailed it on this one. Trust me when I say last set of tires you will buy for a long while, and when you do go to buy a new set it will be the same ones, at least it will be for me.
Everything cracked up to be
These tires have been awesome! I have almost 10k on my set of 32's and they still look brand new. I have been in deep snow, compact snow, light mud, rocks, sand dunes and Tarmac. So far these tires have surpassed my expectations and have surprised me. I was first looking at KM2's but factored in the daily commute also. These tires are quite. Tarmac handling is is very good. I live in Seattle, WA. The rainy state. These tires are on my 1990 pickup 4x4. The rain performance is pretty awesome I'm not sure what some people are talking about hydro planing. I've gone 70-80mph through standing water and Heavy rain with full confidence and had never hydroplaned. Snow performance is good. I did get stuck once up in the mountains where I should have had no business playing around in. I did air them down to about 8-10psi with no beadlocks. (Desperate attempt, it was 6am and 0 degrees). Tires didn't debead even after driving on Tarmac to the cabin. Snow was 5feet high with deep snow banks on each side. With no winch, I was able to dig and rock it out. Even pulled my buddy half a mile back down the one lane road while he was stuck in a deep snow bank. 32's were just to small. As far as ice, no tire is going to be good unless you have studded tires or chains. I haven't experienced any "real" mud but light mud it handled great. These aren't mud terrain tires so I'm not expected them to be awesome. Sand dunes and beaches they had no problem in. Overall this tire I can say is the best "all-terrain" tire. People check your load rating and tire pressures and make sure you have them aired up correctly to get the most mileage out of them.
These are the best tires for any aggressive looking truck!
I bought a 2005 F150 FX4 Supercab about 2 months ago. The tires on it had no tread left on them so I had to buy new tires. I knew I was going to lift my truck and make it look very rugged so I wanted some aggressive looking tires. I paired these tires with (285/65/18 , 33's) with some 18x9 WORX Beast II. So far, I've probably only put 100 miles on them and they have held up way above my expectations. There is no tire noise while driving down the road and the tires look excellent on any aggressive truck! Would buy these again! This is my own personal review, I was not payed to write this.
finally some good tires
excited about the new tires, dissappointed about the cost and 1 seemingly minor thing.....why no white letters? Kind of like buying Nike's and removing the swoosh.... I'll report more later on their performance. The previous set I had were great. Many times I didn't even need the 4wd engaged.
Not what I paid for
The tire is good for on road driving as well as MINOR off roading. They will clog up very fast in mud or snow but they are all terrains. The voids are not large enough to throw out the mud. They ride fairly smooth for how aggressive the tread tread design is. They also hydroplane easily because there are no kerfs to allow the water to evacuate easily. The only reason I give 1 star is because they were supposed to be 37 inches tall. They were actually 35.25 inches tall. I understand there would be some variance but these are 35s not 37s. I put less than 2000 miles on them and replaced already due to this. BFGoodrich should have tighter tolerances than this.
Possibly the worst tire
Bad wear, wimpy looking compared to other same size & style mounted tires. Hydroplane easily, slip in any ice condition. Shall I continue? These tires now serve as swings. Let's hope they can handle that.....
Good traction- Terrible wear
Original Michelin tires went 28,000. These tires have 24,300 and will not make 25K.Good all around traction, but tread wear is terrible. Will go to another brand soon.
5th set of all terains
Every truck I have owned from 1985 to present gets a set of All Terrain tires. I just purchased my 5th set of these tires, they are the only tire I will purchase anymore. I usually get 50,000 miles plus out of these tires and never have any issues on or off road. Great TIRE BF GOODRICH.
2015 Toyota Rav4
Ride noise some , should be it's an off road tire. Rough ride , not that bad 56psi keeps tires from excessive sidewall flex on roads. Traction on mountain drive way mud, snow very very good, dry excellent. Drive way is steep enough that when coming down in rain back end of Rav4 want to pass the front in when stopped. (most of the weight in on the front tires at that point) So far Rav4 is in one piece because of these tires , 7,000 miles on them. Using stock tire size.
Life Saver Maybe
The K02s were installed on our Ram 1500 4X4 about 10,000 miles ago. We drive it primarily on road but frequently off road on Mojave Desert trails. We bought them because we like the K0s on our vintage Jeep. These tires are exceptional both on and off road. They handle better on road than I imagined and did not change the fuel mileage at all from the stock street tires. My biggest concern before buying them was sound (we do a 500 mile road trip to monthly) but I needed tires with off road capability. The only time I notice the sound is while braking and it isn't annoying. Off road performance is everything I hoped and more than we need. Flats were my main concern and so far so good. The real test for the tires was on a 70 mph section of Interstate 10. My wife had nearly passed a big rig when the driver weaved into her, his left front wheel with lug nut spikes contacted her right rear. She felt the nudge and got the truck to the shoulder across three lanes of traffic without spinning or losing control. The spikes took chunks out of the wheel and broke the bead resulting in a total loss of air pressure. The sidewall of the tire was sliced but when we looked at it the carcass was not penetrated. The tire was not punctured and would still hold air if there wasn't a hole in the wheel. My wife said after correcting from the initial impact the truck handled predictably the entire incident. We'll put T/A K02s on all our future trucks as long as BF Goodrich makes them. Thanks for a great product!
