Best I have tried...
Replaced my ageing Cooper Discover AT's with these. Impressed so far as they appear to ride much softer than my old Coopers. Have only done some sand driving and some wet road work and grip appears plentiful.

Great so far with superior grip on and off road
The BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 tyre is a real beast. Its toughness is seriously impressive – that CoreGard Max sidewall, apparently inspired by Baja racing, makes me feel like it could handle just about anything the trail throws at it. No more wincing every time I hit a sharp rock, hopefully! And the off-road grip? It is fantastic. They've really worked on that tread pattern with those bigger gaps and the way the shoulders are designed. I can just imagine clawing my way through mud and scrambling over loose gravel with more confidence. Plus, those mud-phobic bars sound like a smart way to keep things clear and maintain traction. What's surprising, though, is that it's actually pretty decent on the road too. A smooth and quiet ride? That's a huge plus. I've had all-terrains before that hummed like crazy on the highway, so this would be a welcome change. Knowing it's got that Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating gives me some peace of mind for those occasional snowy trips. And the fact that they're aiming for longer tread life and even wear is definitely appealing to my wallet. Of course, it sounds like it might be a bit pricier, but if it lives up to the hype about being tough and long-lasting, it could be worth it in the long run. I've also heard a couple of whispers about it maybe feeling a little stiff on really soft sand, but that just means airing down would probably be the way to go in those situations. And that one comment about wet road grip after some wear is something I'd definitely keep an eye on. Overall, though, this KO3 is shaping up to be a really solid all-arounder. It seems like they've taken the good stuff from the KO2 and made it even better.

BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 on Discovery Sport
I recently fitted a set of BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3s to my Discovery Sport, and after a few thousand kilometres across beach sand, dirt roads, rural tracks, and freeways, I’m seriously impressed. Visually, they make the Disco look tougher without going full Mad Max. The tread pattern is aggressive but still refined enough for day-to-day use. On-road, they’re surprisingly quiet for an all-terrain. There’s a soft hum at highway speeds, but nothing intrusive — if anything, it’s a subtle reminder that you’re ready for anything. Ride comfort is excellent; it still feels like an SUV, not a ute on mud tyres. Beach driving is where these tyres really shine. With pressures dropped, the KO3s floated across soft sand without a hint of bogging, even in some pretty loose stuff. On rural dirt and gravel roads, they deliver serious grip and stability, even under braking and in corners. Corrugations feel more manageable, and the sidewalls inspire a lot of confidence over rough tracks. Fuel economy has taken a small hit (no surprises there), but the trade-off for capability is well worth it. Early signs on wear are positive — minimal tread wear after mixed use, and they come with a strong mileage warranty. BFGoodrich clearly backs these tyres for the long haul. Overall, if you want a tyre that can cruise the freeway, hammer dirt backroads, take on soft sand without blinking, and still behave itself around town, the KO3 is outstanding. Not the cheapest option out there, but definitely a case of getting what you pay for.

Better than the K02
In terms of aesthetic the K02 was always the go to despite it being a slippery tyre after being driven for a bit. KO3's seem to be very sticky and still looks tough. Liking it a lot right now!

K03 tyre improvement.
I have had K02 tyres on my Prado and they are a great solid build tyre for off-roading etc but have not been good at all driving in wet conditions on sealed roads, now that the K03 have been released I have read many reviews and there has been a vast improvement driving in wet conditions. I'll be fitting my new K03's very soon. Can't wait !!!

Quieter than the old model
Great grip and at high speeds isn't too loud. Hasn't had any shoulder chips. Will be interesting to see how many miles the tyres do.

Great AT Tyre
Real improvement on wet roads and tyre noise over the KO2s whilst still performing really well across dirt, gravel and rocks. My new favourite AT tyre!

Expecting Excellent Performance
First set of KO3. Had 2 sets of KO2 before and they didn’t disappoint. Expecting the same (or better) performance. Just a few months only a fair bit of dirt road but feel great already.
