Nosiey tires
Purchased and wearing so that at half life are now making extreme noises when normal driving.
Jeep Rubicon, Noise is most commonly due to an uneven or irregular wear pattern that has developed on the tires. We suggest that you have the tires inspected by a participating tire retailer in your area. Upon inspection, you are welcomed to contact us at 866-866-6605 8am-5pm EST Mon-Fri

Good tires with a couple let downs.
The off road capability on rocks, mud, sand, gravel, is superb and they are very durable at least in my experience. They are not too heavy when compared to competitors and the noise is very tolerable even with a soft top Jeep. The price is very fair. And despite being mud tires, as long as they are rotated frequently, they wear very evenly. And they look fantastic. HOWEVER! they are not very good in snow. I am a very skilled driver and it is safe to say that more than half of the people who buy these tires will have trouble if they encounter snow. When it rains on a paved road, these almost feel like driving a race car on slicks in the wet. They constantly slip and slide. But the worst thing for me and ultimately the deal breaker is the braking performance. It is ATROCIOUS! Even on a warm dry day on a perfect surface, my 6000 pound Range Rover will stop faster on its snow tires then my 4000 pound Jeep on these KM3's It is important to note, on the trail, these tires will stop faster than any other tire! (as long as it's not snowing). But they are terrible on pavement. If I lived on dirt/gravel or a farm, I would stay with these. But I live in Southern California where we have L.A. traffic and terrible drivers, braking is important. 3 stars, although I am very aware that mud tires do not do well on the road, I did not expect them to be so horrible in rain and under braking esspecially for the quality and the slighlty above average price. And the snow performance was quite dissapointing.

Made my Jeep's ride a lot smoother
I bought these tires, they were the same brand and variety that came with the Jeep when I bought it new

Bring back the KM2s
I purchased a set of these tires because the KM2s were discontinued. They are a complete downgrade from the KM2s. The rubber is a harder rubber so I feel more bumps on the road and they are not as sticky on the rocks. They slip a lot. Much worse in the snow than the Km2s as well. Tread pattern has shifted more towards an all terrain performance rather than a Krawler performance/tread design which is what the KM2 customers loved. Wish BFG still made the KM2s. Unless they start making them again, they have lost a 15 year return customer and I'll have to look for another tire brand next round.
Brad, thanks for taking the time to submit a review. We're sorry to read of your disappointment in the KM3's. We'll pass along your comments to our Marketing group.

KM3 285/70/17 Toyota 4Runner
Replaced my BFG KO2s with these KM3 3 years ago and I could not be happier with the performance & look of these tires.The on road and off-road performance has been outstanding. With just shy of 40,000 miles I still have 10/32 out of 18/32 left on the tread, all 4 tired have worn perfectly but I do check PSI monthly plus rotate and balance every 5000 miles.I run these on my modified 4Runner with a good amount of extra weight on it and at 75 mph the noise decibel is just under 70 which isn’t bad considering all of the extra accessories I have on my rig. Without question I will be buying these tires again!
BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 Warranties
Government UTQG Ratings do not apply to light truck sized tires.
>> The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
>> Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.
>> Tread patterns are often tuned to accomodate different tire widths. Tires for a particular dimension of a given tireline may vary in appearance from the tire shown in the photograph.
WARNING: Serious or fatal injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation or overloading. To ensure correct air pressure and vehicle load, refer to vehicle owner's manual or tire information placard on the vehicle. Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. Only tire professionals should mount tires and they should never inflate beyond 40 psi to seat the beads. Before mixing types of tires in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for its recommendations. No tire is indestructible. An impact can cause a tire to fail, resulting in serious injury or death. Consult your tire owner's manual for proper maintenance instructions.
When replacing an Original Equipment P-Metric or Euro Metric size tire with an LT-metric or High Flotation size tire, the air pressures of the LT-metric / High Flotation tire must be adjusted in order to properly carry the load of the vehicle. See your BFGoodrich Tires dealer for the proper air pressure recommendation.
DANGER: Never mount a 16" diameter tire on a 16.5" rim.
DANGER: Never mount a 17" diameter tire on a 17.5" rim.
Inflation pressure increase must not exceed the maximum pressure branded on the tire sidewall. When a customer requests a replacement tire with a lower speed rating than the original equipment tire, you must clearly communicate to him or her that the handling of the vehicle may be different, and that its maximum speed capability is limited to that of the lowest speed-rated tire on the vehicle. Exceeding the lawful speed limit is neither recommended nor endorsed.
