The BF Goodrich KO3 Tyre is Here!
Introduced as a replacement to the company's legendary KO2 tyre, the BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 is tougher than ever before!
BF Goodrich's KO2 has been a best-seller on our shop for a number of years. Boasting incredible robustness, unmistakeable styling and sensational off-road performance, it's easy to see why it was such a hit with our customers.
The KO3 takes the KO2's design and adds a number of key improvements:
- Tougher sidewalls for improved puncture resistance when off-roading
- Aggressive all-terrain tread pattern with staggered shoulder blocks
- Advanced footprint stress distribution, providing more even wear and a longer tread life
Due to the sheer amount of sizes and specifications that the outgoing KO2 can be supplied with, the KO3 is gradually being phased into the market, with a number of key sizes being introduced first. This includes 215/70R16 (which is hugely popular with our 2018+ JB74 Suzuki Jimny customers) that is shown here in our pictures.
The above image shows a KO2 on the left and a KO3 on the right (both in 215/70R16 sizing), allowing you to see the updated tread pattern of the KO3.
