BF Goodrich All-Terrain TA KO3 LT305/70R17 F/12PLY WL

BF Goodrich All-Terrain TA KO3 Product Description

This listing is for new BF Goodrich All-Terrain TA KO3 LT305/70R17 F/12PLY WL Tires. Manufacturer part number: 86520.

The BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 is the newest generation of the most recognized all-terrain tire in the US market. It is 3PMSF rated for severe snow service and built for trucks and Jeeps that see genuine off-road use and still have to commute the rest of the week.

The most common question on this tire is whether it is worth stepping up from the KO2, and the honest answer is that it depends on your weather. The KO3's headline improvements are wet and snow traction, achieved through a revised tread compound and additional siping, without giving up the sidewall toughness the line built its name on. If you drive in rain and snow regularly, that is a real gain. If you live somewhere dry and mostly want durability, the KO2 remains an excellent tire at a lower price.

The three-ply polyester sidewall construction is why this family has the reputation it does. It is what survives rock, root, and jobsite debris that opens up a lighter-built tire, and it is why overlanders and work fleets keep specifying it. Off the pavement, interlocking tread blocks and open shoulders provide superior off-road bite, while integrated stone ejectors prevent debris retention and protect the casing from stone drilling. On pavement, it is firm and audible, as any serious all-terrain is, but it tracks straight and brakes predictably under a loaded bed. If your truck never leaves asphalt, a highway-terrain tire will be quieter and cheaper to run, and we will tell you that rather than sell you more tire than you need.

Best-suited for: Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Gladiator, Ford Bronco, Toyota Tacoma, Ford F-150, Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Ram 1500, Toyota 4Runner, GMC Sierra.
