According to the majority of state DOT regulations, when only 2/32” of tread remains a tire is no longer legal. At that rate, it may be possible for KM3 owners to get 44,000 miles of use. Most owners will replace sooner, so estimating 30-40,000 miles would be wise.
Which is better KM3 or KO2?
The BFGoodrich KO2 all-terrain tires have a closer tread pattern, which reduces road noise and increases grip on the pavement. They definitely provide better handling on the highway compared to the BFGoodrich KM3 tires, but they are no contest when it comes to off-road terrain.
What’s the difference between BFG KM2 and KM3?
It’s much more resistant to punctures and splitting, giving the KM3 a 27% tougher sidewall compared to the KM2. The KM3 uses what are called “mud-phobic” bars in the void areas of the outer tread. A key to mud performance is the tire’s ability to shed mud while spinning, providing clean biting edges.
Are BFG KM3 good for towing?
Reinforced sidewalls and immense off-road durability tend to translate well to load range and towing/hauling capacity, and the Ridge Grappler and KM3 both deliver the goods in this area.
