Review of
the BF Goodrich® All-Terrain T/A® KO
As with the BFGoodrich ® Mud-Terrain T/A® KM the BFGoodrich ® All-Terrain T/A® KO
is an extremely popular tire of choice for many
4wheelers who want
decent off-road performance while maintaining good
street performance. This radial AT with its highly
siped semi-aggressive
tread pattern and 3-ply sidewalls it is a good choice for all-around use including dry
loose dirt, light mud, sand, and light to moderate rock
crawling. While not as aggressive as its Mud
Terrain counterpart, this tire is a good performer in
its class making it a very popular choice as an OEM tire
with Ford, General Motors,
Toyota and Daimler-Chrysler. As with BFG's other
tires, the BFG All Terrain T/A
KO has exceptional wear qualities with a longer wear factor on the
trail and on the street over most All Terrain tires on
the market. are
somewhat vulnerable to sharp rocks. Sizes
available up to 37x12.50R18/D.

| I have
these on my Toyota
Tacoma. Been to the
Pine Barrens of New Jersey
many times where's sandy
and muddy. The tires
have always done
great. Deep mud
they're not as good but on
the trails I air down a
little, to about 15 psi
and they get good
grip. Been to
Paragon a few times and
did some moderate rock
crawling. The BFGs
did well there too.
They got scuffed up a bit
but no problems.
Good tire, no complains.

| Very good
on snow and Ice and
Gravel. The nearest town
to me is 300 km of gravel
away. I probably put over
2000km of gravel on my
tires/year. Starting to see
wear but have not had a
blow out or a flat tire
from a rock yet.

Very Quite
Tire, cant beat it. This
tire works very well on the
mountain trails here. Unless
it rains then you will the
tire doesnt self clean and
you will slide everywhere.
Very Dangerous on sloped
muddy trails with drop offs.
Super tire on road and
dirt... leave the mud for a
mud tire.
