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. However, some users experienced issues such as vibrations, balancing problems, and shorter tread life compared to the previous model. The tires may also be noisier and less comfortable on the highway compared to other all-terrain or highway tires.

I bought an E load set of these tires for my 23 GMC 3500 AT4 knowing the common complaint of balancing these tires. That seemed to be the only issues I could find online so I asked Kal-Tire prior to purchasing if they had experienced any issues with balancing and they said no so I went ahead with the purchase. Looks wise, these tires are fantastic, however that is about as far as I can give credit. Within 7000 kms the tires had to be balanced 2 more times from excessive shaking at 90-110 km'h as well as they started to wear like they were deteriorating excessively and appeared to be failing (even with a perfect wheel alignment) so I went back to Kal Tire and they were warrantied. The second set I had put on were smooth on the highway right off the hop so I was super happy, however that is quickly where that ended. I currently have less than 800 km on these new replacements and I noticed the sidewall had a hole looking defect to it. Upon further inspection, the sidewall was crumbling in 1mm pieces like coarse black pepper or even parmesan cheese when touching it with your finger. I again have had to go back to Kal Tire who immediately said that is a defect for sure. I now do not trust this brand and I never should have purchased these. I cannot get a refund on these tires from BFG so I am basically out $2500. Just stay away from these tires cause in my experience, the quality control on these is less than subpar. Should have stuck with Toyo AT3
Unable to balance
Unable to get a smooth ride from the tires. I have had them balanced 3 times and I still get shaking at certain speeds. This is my 4th set of BFGs and highly disappointed with this set.
These tires have seen many burnouts and still loo brand new 10/10 I pulled a van out of a snow filled ditch no problem with a 1500
Cant get KO2 to balance
Will not balance!
After my KO2’s wore out, had a new set of KO3’s installed on my truck at the dealer where I bought my truck. Been back twice and they will not balance. Terrible vibration at highway and interstate speeds. Very disappointed!
BEST FEATURES!
Looks great, drives great, overall GREAT!
These tires have been great for any purpose and ever better the snow I always feel safe
Great tires for any truck.
I have been running these tires on my truck since just after I bought it in 99, All-terrain, ko, ko2 and now ko3. They are simply the best tires I have ever owned. They ride beautifully, provide excellent traction on almost any terrain. Their performance on wet and snowy roads is phenomenal. I will continue to run BF Goodrich tires on all my rigs. I trust them.
Not as good as K02's
After having the tires for a week they were re balanced as I mentioned my truck was shaking after install and still does after. They do ok in wet weather and didn't have a problem with traction in rain or snow. I had hopes these would be better than the K02's but I don't feel they are.
Gerry, we're sorry to hear you are continuing to experience shaking with your All-Terrain T/A KO3 tires. While it’s good to hear traction has been satisfactory in wet and winter conditions, ongoing vibration isn’t the experience we want for our customers. BFGoodrich designs its off-road tires with tighter beads to prevent unseating. This is critical especially when tires are aired down for off-roading. Problems might arise if the tires aren’t seated properly. We recommend sharing a quick video tutorial of proper install with your dealer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPZcVeJQaOc If additional support is needed, our Consumer Care team would be glad to help review your concerns and discuss next steps. Our number is 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

I have no issues with these tires, they ride well and produce little noise.
