Description: Review of the BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX
The BFGoodrich Krawler is a monster of a Radial tire. BFGoodrich specifically designed this tire to excel in the world of rockcrawling, while still giving the driver performance in a variety of terrains, including on paved road. The Krawler's tread design is an aggressive, strong one with massive lugs, super-strong sidewalls, and an extra shoulder lip of rubber around the bead to help protect the rim and aid the tires resistance to popping off the bead. At low pressures, the sidewall and tread flexes readily and surprisingly well for such a massive tire, enveloping obstacles as the sidewalls bulge. Tread lugs extend way down the sidewall offering protect as well as helps to increase traction when sidewall bite can make the difference on rock and in mud. Where the BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX excels best is on the rocks. When aired down to the single digits, the chunky lugs of soft compound grip big time on all types of rocks from the knarly to the slick. Sharp rocks and wood spikes offer little problem as the Krawler resists tears and punctures to an impressive degree. In the mud the Krawler isn't at its best. The tread doesn't self clean as well as some of the other mud performers on the market unless generous amounts of throttled wheelspin are applied. On the wooded trails this tire does very well, getting good bite the varying conditions. In the sand the Krawler bites strong and will dig if too much throttle is applied although flotation is good. On the street, the BFGoodrich Krawlers perform better than most aggressive tires with a somewhat smooth ride. This is in part due to their construction as a radial tire and the staggered tread design. However they will still let you know they're down there as some lug slap will be noticed. As far as their look, the Krawler has a very aggressive appearance and will definitely turn heads. Sidewall Plys: 4 Nylon. Tread Plys: 4 Nylon, 2 Steel. Load Rating: C. Available sizes: 35x13.50R15/C, 37x12.50R17/C, 37x12.50R17/C

Manufacturers description of this tire:
BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX


Introducing the world's best rock-crawling tire. Ideal for extreme terrain conditions and the winner of multiple rock-crawling championships. Features an ultra-aggressive deep-lug tread pattern and one of the most puncture resistant sidewalls of any tire we've ever offered. Available in two sizes: molded (37X12.50R17 and 35X13.50R15) or grooveable (37X12.50R17). Our ultimate off-road tire, designed for awesome performance on the rocks and in the dirt. Limited quantities available in 35- and 37-inch sizes.


World champion rock crawling performance.
What it is: Xtreme traction off-road tire that has won more rock crawling championships than any other tire.
Who it's for: Rock crawling competitors and hardcore off-roaders.
In 2004, BFGoodrich tires won 51 of 54 major rock crawling championships.


Features:



  • Ultra-aggressive deep-lug tread pattern

  • Four nylon sidewall plies

  • Race-spec carcass

  • Brawny, solid sidewall lugs

  • X-tra traction tread compound

  • Rim protector


Benefits:



  • Large, deep lugs - even deeper than Mud-Terrain T/A KM

    help provide exceptional traction in rock, mud and dirt.

    Tread can be carved to tune performance to meet the

    specific needs of the consumer

  • One of the highest puncture resistant sidewalls of any

    tire we've ever offered

  • A super-tough carcass built like some of our off-road

    racing tires. The lessons we learn in off-road racing are

    built right into the Krawler T/A KX

  • Deep, large and solid sidewall lugs aid both traction and

    puncture resistance

  • Softer tread compound evolved from our years of offroading

    experience. Conforms better to uneven surfaces, increases traction

  • Improved wheel and tire protection from off-road hazards, especially
    during aired-down situations

Pros: none
Cons: tread wear

Have a set of 255/80/17 on a 2010 silverado. Put on with 8,000 and now have 20,000 and they are bald. Never buy these again, BFG needs to go back to the original KMs

Pros: Positive Wear for an MT
Cons: Sidewall durability

Great tire, really enjoyed them but I had sidewall slices on a pair of tire which cause me to discard the set. Great for light wheeling in my opinion, and no shale.

Pros: ride good, wear good, good in the slippery stuff.
Cons: dont hold together

I drive a 2003 crew cab f350 with an 8'' lift and its good tire till they decide to come apart on you. 3 out of the four 37x12.50x17's have blown out on me going down the highway. over 5k of damge to my truck. in the last 3 months. iv been replacing them with new bf's but i think its time to cut my losses and move on to another tire. gona try the good year mt/r's and see how they do. the bf's might be good for the lighter trucks but its your gamble.

Pros: Low noise, wear well, relatively cheap
Cons: OK in sand

I bought these tires in July of 2012. So far they have worn very little. I drive my jeep on the highway to town quite often and they make hardly any noise. I have used my in mud and sand and they perform flawlessly in mud. The mud wasn't great because of little rain but I never had to use 4 wheel drive. In the sand they are good. The only problem in sand is they dig to much. If your mudding mostly they are a great tire. Look around and you can find cheap ones. I bought 33x10.50R15 for 170 a tire.

Pros: work well for intended purpose
Cons: road walk, a little noisy at end of life.

I've done some foolish things in my 2006 leveled cummins mega cab 450whp equiped with 35, 1250 17s i've gone130+ mph, towed 17000 lbs on a bumper pull, crawled mild rock gardens, blasted down sand washes at highway speeds, done some huge burn outs, and pulled trees out of the ground in the rain and i've yet to have a real problem with them. I've logged over 25000 miles at45 psi. If you are tearing these things up you are abusing them.

these tires rock the house I've used these on my 07' Chevy 3500HD duramax flatbed truck. I have a ranch Hand heavy duty front bumper and winch and these 285/70/18 tires and they rock the house.

Pros: works well in rough terrain
Cons: bad traction on road in the rain or snow

2011 dodge ram 3/4 diesel. works great in the mud and trails off road at first but when they start to wear they get bad traction especially on rocks or any flat surface. There ok tires for the money will be going with another mud tire tho.
