Review Summary
The BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 tires offer good traction and grip in various conditions, including snow and wet roads. Many customers report a smooth ride and improved fuel economy.

Tire wear
After 12,000km tire wear is down from 15 mm to 9 mm. I pull a 5th wheel trailer which I pull on gravel roads heading to my favorite lake to fish. I expected better tire wear so really disappointed with this tire.
Poor tread life
Decent tire and have been solid in snow, mud and daily driving but I dont even have 20,000 miles and I need to replace them.
We're glad to hear the All-Terrain T/A KO3 have performed well in snow, mud, and daily driving, but we’re sorry to hear the tread life hasn't met expectations. Please visit an authorized tire retailer for an inspection and have the dealer call us at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST) with their findings.

Won’t balance
Bought a set of KO3’s for my F350 in January. Truck vibrated badly on the freeway. Took it back and had them road force test them. 2 of the 4 they could not get to a reasonable number. Ordered two replacements. Only one of those were passable. Went in yesterday to get the last replaced, now it’s worse than ever. Entire truck shakes on the freeway. In summary, 3 of 7 tires have been passable and I’m still working on the last one. Big mistake buying these tires. Should have went with K02’s.
Dave, we’re very sorry to hear about the ongoing vibration issues you’ve encountered with your All‑Terrain T/A KO3 tires. We understand how frustrating this has been. BFGoodrich off‑road tires are designed to stay securely seated, which makes proper mounting especially important. In some cases, a tire can look correctly installed even if it isn’t seated evenly, which may lead to vibration. This short video explains this in more detail: 👉https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPZcVeJQaOc We recommend continuing to work with your authorized BFG dealer to ensure everything is properly addressed. Our Consumer Care team is also available to review your situation and help with next steps. Feel free to call us at 866‑866‑6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

No more hydroplaning
With vehicles today all having oversize tires prone to hydroplaning, tires like these are a must. Under rainy or snowy conditions, these tires make the pickup a much safer vehicle to drive.
Lies, shrinkflation in action!!!!!
I bought some ko2's 275 65 20. They are a full inch shorter than spec't, they are over an inch thinner, less wide. What an utter thievery. What can I do about this. They look ridiculous on my lifted truck.

Good looks, but a lot of vibrations at highway speed.
The good: quiet, good looking tire. No issues with steering. Can tell much heavier than a typical highway tire when accelerating or stopping which is expected. The bad: gave the tire shop 2 tries to balance. Vibrations at anything over 60 mph. Paid extra for road force. High road force numbers in the 30s and 40s and a bunch of weight on each rim. Returned and went with another tire.
Brad, thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear you appreciated the quiet ride and appearance of the All‑Terrain T/A KO3 tires, but we’re sorry to learn about the vibration and balancing issues you experienced. 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, vibration can occur if the tire is not seated uniformly on the wheel, even if it appears properly installed. Our Customer Care team is always here to help if you have questions in the future. Please call 866‑866‑6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

A Great Tire that needs a Good Tire Shop to install
Simply put, most all of the 1 star reviews seem to be from people with newly mounted tires that have balance issues. A good tire shop familiar with BFG's and 8-12 ply tires is a must. These need a good quality Paste (lots of it) when mounting to ensure a bead seal and also road force balance (without rushing thru it because they are a trying to max the number of tires sold that day). I spent quite a while in the shop waiting and watching the install, but it was worth it. That said, all Tire Companies sometimes have an imperfect one come off the line, but in that very rare situation a good shop will spot it and stop the install and order a replacement (not put it on anyway knowing it was not right). I have had no issues with mine at any speed and I love the grip, low road noise and overall feel of these tires. Plus, they look super cool ! Very happy with my choice and confident they will last for years.
Best ever
Best a/t tires on the market!! 1st set of ko3, always have been my favorite brand of tires!!
