Its not a great wet tire but not under the market necessity. In summary, Toyo Open Country AT3 and BF Goodrich KO2 have very close ratings. I have K02 on both Jeeps (WJ & JKU) the set on the WJ currently have 55k miles (89k Kilometers) and are getting close to replacement, still plenty of legal tread, but not really enough meat left for good traction in mud. I'm at 30k on mine and my dealership just told me I still have 80% tread left, which seemed like a stretch but who knows. BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 has a 20 percent tougher sidewall and features race-proven CoreGard Technology to take on the toughest road hazards with confidence. One easy way to check for wear is by using the penny test. Winter tires are made specifically to maintain flexibility and traction in subfreezing temperatures. Nonetheless, ply rate is not the only variable that affects durability. In both examples, when the treadwear indicator shows the tire's tread is worn-out, it is time to replace your tires. In fact, we can confidently say that it might take over BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 in the future. A side note here: Even though some tires tend to make noise because of their tread patterns, its still possible to keep your tire noise down. what challenges do advertisers face with product placement? I bought a 16 tocoma new and put the KO2S on it at 30 miles on the truck. We recommend you give it a try for Falken Wildpeak AT3W. Mine on on a Chevy 2500HD Z71. We use data about you for a number of purposes explained in the links below. Ill check the wear indicators. My KO2's have about 26000 miles on them so far and the road noise coming from them has increased substantially. Seems quick to go to KO3, KO was what, 15 years old before being replaced? BFG KO is less expensive as it has old technology adapted for it. Aggressive shoulder design also handles any kind of deep mud, sand, etc. Not all brands use numbers as tread wear indicators. Tread wear indicator bars help you visually measure the tread depth left on your tires. much higher then the BFGs (3600 i think). Their handling doesnt change but they start to get noisy I mean difficult to talk at highway speeds and do I have a hub going out? noisy. Tire wear bars sit at 2/32" of tread depth, which is the lowest tread depth allowed by the law - this depends on state to state, but most in most states you can drive your vehicle with that much tread left. Ive got new BFG KO2s on the Troopy. Yet, Falken Wildpeak AT3W(review) is hilarious! Excellent traction may not be a quality of optimism because that's the minimum condition for a right tire. There are several ways to check for wear without even getting your hands dirty: You can either look for visible, excessive wear, you can perform the Penny Test to check proper tread depth, or you can check if the tread is worn down to the wear bar indicators (typically located in the circumferential grooves of the tread). It is a smooth, reasonably quiet, all-conditions tire that promises. And for good reason. The highway manners and snow/ice performance Id experienced convinced me that, like two decades before, the tire Id once again trust on my wifes daily driver was BFGoodrichs all-terrain. That was in late spring of 2015, and just in time for the Beehive States second largest 44 rally, the venerable Cruise Moab. For starters, the KO2 features an Interlocking Tread Design, which gives the tread blocks more stability, allowing them to wear more evenly over time. Ended up going with Cooper ST MAXX tires to replace the BFGs as they had the highest weight rating at 4,080lbs each. The tire bars only show the legal lowest tread allowed on the tires, but most tires will lose their driving safety way before the tread is worn-out. Still have 5/32 tread left. Butwill likely have to replace for safety. Then theres the basic shape of the tires footprint on the ground, which is designed to more evenly distribute the load and result in more even wear.
