Tyre reviews BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A KO2. Page 3 404

I bought them back in 2016 for 39,760 (hence the 5* for the price). Jeep ZJ 94, 5.2l. Size 31x10.5x15, in Russian 265/75 R15
I bought them more for the exterior look than for targeted use. At the moment, the car is driven rarely and in the city, but I've also had the chance to drive on off-road and rough terrain more than once. What can I say:
-City: the tires are quite noisy, compared to regular passenger car tires. Above 140 km/h, it's already uncomfortable. Also, with a 75 profile, the sharpness of the steering is completely lost, and a significant floatiness appears (but we're not taking it for drifting, are we?). Also, when braking sharply, it can skid. Otherwise, everything is fine, both in dry and rainy weather, there were no problems. Very good wear resistance, doesn't matter about potholes, curbs, or even rubbing the sidewalls - not even scratches.
-Mud: over all the time, I didn't even lower the pressure once. I always drive with city pressure 2.2 - 2.4 atm, didn't see any strong mud, but drove through clay and mud with no issues. Got stuck on bridges, but the tires always pulled through). In fords, everything is fine too.
-Snow and ice: on ice, it's all clear, not much grip, but no problems, everything is predictable. With snow, everything is great, I drove out of snowdrifts much higher than my knee quite easily, just need to press the gas!

Tires are simply fantastic. I could debunk several of the factors that many have mentioned.
1. That they are noiseless is not true.
However, it's not fair to say that they add any discomfort either. Yes, they are audible if you slightly open both the front windows, but the noise of the transfer case is more noticeable, and then a slight whisper of the rubber is heard.
2. Many reviewers have written that the tire does not like the- Vehicle:

I have Michelin Latitude Tour A/S with 2.2 bar pressure. Compared to my old Bridgestones, it feels stiffer on R18. The tire is heavy and I see an average increase of 2 liters of fuel consumption. It's not too noisy. The positive aspects are its confidence in off-road driving, no fear of cuts because of the LT reinforced tire. The vehicle doesn't get stuck, gets a bit bogged down but that was expected. For an experiment,

This is either my fifth or sixth set of BFG AT tires, now on my Mitsubishi L200, previously on my Mitsubishi Montero. I use them year-round, on roads and off, in mud, snow, ice, gravel, and so on – any terrain. I get around 80...100,000 km on a set, then sell it off for a quarter of the price with a decent tread left and buy a new one. On six sets, I've had two punctures

Second set at 20,000 km. The first set lasted for 110,000 km. It has the best durability. It's ideal for dirt roads and bad roads. However, the weight is felt even on a heavy SUV. It's not noisy and fairly soft until it starts to dry out (around the 5th year). If it seems noisy to you, you need to take into account the soundproofing of the car. If the car is actively used in the winter,

Literally on the first thousand I saved my freedom! Never seen a car handled on a wet road in emergency braking. Without a doubt, only Goodyear from now on, no options!!!

Perfect all-season tyres for a SUV! Initially bought them for the good looks, but was surprised to find out that the BF Goodrich KO2 are quieter and softer on the road than my original Japanese tyres. Good points also: good traction on non-muddy terrain (tested on both frosty clay and black soil), and great wear resistance - 1mm wear after 10 thousand km, and 95% of the mileage was done on the city asphalt. On ice and snow, they roll

This tire is top-notch. Honestly, it handles well in any weather. I don't know how it would perform in heavy mud, but I haven't had a chance to test it yet. However, it handles light mud, sand, and steep hills with dense vegetation perfectly. On wet asphalt, it brakes well. Overall, this tire is more than worthy, yes, it is a bit pricier, but it holds its ground. I haven't even noticed that I'm using it,

My Toyo on these tires finally shows accurate odometer readings :) since the size is not standard for Koleos. In the mud, to put it mildly, (clayey) it never bucked once, since I bought them specifically for driving to my house in the off-road, buying tires is cheaper than paying for road maintenance, or rather, its absence in full. "A bit" noisy on the highway. The car has become higher, that's a plus. I was afraid

This is not my first set of BFGoodrich All Terrain tires, and despite having alternatives, I don't plan on changing them. As for the tires themselves, they are soft, handle stably on the road, and have never failed me in mud - they grip as needed and even more, without getting stuck at all (although washing the car after that is still a pleasure). In general, if you have the finances, take them - you won't regret it.
The downsides are that they are noisy since they are A/T, and they can't be used in our climate during winter, as they don't hold the car on frost, but they allow you to change them a bit earlier after winter and a bit later before, so you don't have to stand in lines during the season.
