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: wear's good,looks good
Cons: no sipping

These tires suck in snow,and mud have 35's with 4.56 gears and lockers front and rear,they do good on hard pack and dirt trails so much for the mud written on the sidewall,worthless in snow

Pros: cleaning, tread depth,looks,E rating
Cons: price as always, right.

KM2's 235x85x16 on Dodge Ram, work pickup, Bought last summer, $190.
mt/balance, So far so good, some
highway noise but not bad at all,heard lot worst than that. Mud roa!!! I mean rock roads here in rural Adair county,
well with the frost out and huge snow melt the roads are , well mud plain and simple, ruts in some places 14" to well over 2'deep, tires are working well, they clean out good, which is one thing that is important to me,they seem to bite right in go, I have some weight on the axles, I had her stuck in snow earlier, it was deep enough to where she was high centered snow pack under her where it was sitting about 1
foot and half up on snow, weight off the drivers sitting there spinning. I think they will be just fine, I have used KO's in the past same way and many hundred thousand miles, They'll DO.

Pros: smooth, quiet, cheap, and great on the road!
Cons: none at this time!

I've had these tires for about 6 months. I have 35x12.50 mounted on 16x8 weld rims. I drive to and from work on the highway for a total of 26 miles each way. I haven't have any problems with them on dry or wet pavement. I also go to the beach often on weekends and don't normally have air down at all! It all depends on which beach I go too. I haven't really tested the tires in the mountain mud and dirt roads but as soon as I do I will send you my reviews! I recomend and intend to buy a set of 33x12.50 on 15x8 rims for my YJ Jeep project this summer. Aloha Storm from Kauai, HI.

Pros: All appearance

One of the worst tires I've ever run:
1)NOISYNOISYNOISY - and LOUD: like washboard road full-time
2)Can't hold a balance more than a month
3)Mediocre traction in snow; better when siped

Pros: smooth ride quite compared to other mud tires, great look!
Cons: kind of expensive

I have had my tires for about eight months. 12k miles and about 2/3 tread left. Love the looks and they perform well. have no problems with balance. I can run 100mph in my F-150 with no shake at all. They work well for easing through mud and woods during deer season. And as for playing in mud-if you got the power to keep them cleaned out- THey WILL GO! Like them better than the buckshots I had before.

Pros: ride good, quiet for an M/T, good in the mud.
Cons: price(get what you pay for though)

I have these in a 285/70/17 on an 05 Z71. I drive it daily to work, and it is our family vehicle. The tires are quiet for such aggressive tread. They ride smooth and were easy to balance. I have 7500 miles on them so far and they look almost new. They do good in the mud, with some throttle. They are ok in the snow and ice, but I expected that from a mud tire. They were a little pricey but comparable to a Cooper STT, Swamper SSR, and they were less than Dick Cepek Mud Countrys, and Mickey Thompson MTZ's.

Pros: Traction
Cons: Short Life

I am running 35X12.50X17 on my Dodge Diesel. Very good snow traction and for mud they are good. I am coming up on 30,000 miles and they are due to be replaced. Noise is slight I don't even notice it.

Pros: Great Major Brand Name
Cons:

BFG M/T KO2 is a great tire with a price. Tires you always pay for what you get.(Im in the wholesale tires business for the last 20yrs).
So everyone realizes
Averages
M/T's (all of them) if you get over 30-35 thousand jump for joy. They are not A/T's of H/T's DUH!!!!
Noise turn up the radio!
Rough in a parking lot LOOK AT THE F'N TREAD people if you can fit your finger inbetween your side lugs/bitters, DUH!!!! AGAIN DUH!!!!!
M/T's are not trying to compare to the A/T's or H/T's so stop rating them as if you were!!!!!! Do you people no know what M/T stands for it sure as heck aint Highway/road tire.

Pros: good performance on the street
Cons: ok offroad, ok on wet roads, ok looks, nothing thrilling for the price

i purchased these tires and had them for about 2 weeks before i sold them. i used to have a set of baja claws, these are no quieter then the claws, if not louder. they do worse in the mud by far, they perform the same on the street and they are by far the weirdest looking tire iv seen. they are contructed very odd, they are not square, they are like a big bubble, they look like you would need to air them down to 5psi to get them to sit square on the ground, these were 35x12.5r15s, the smaller sizes look fine, but bfg cant figure out how to make a big tire i guess. they also don't run true to their size, height is ok, width comes up short big time. overall a very mediocre tire for the same cost that could buy an excellent tire.
