Review Summary
The tires provide excellent off-road traction on mud, rocks, and challenging terrain. They also handle well on the road, with some users noting they are quieter than other mud-terrain tires. However, there are concerns about uneven treadwear, with some needing replacement after 20,000 miles. The tires are also described as being on the pricier side.

Love 'em
Still holding up well with over 35K miles on them, pretty good for a MT type tire.
Awesome Tires
Use these tires on a Jeep Wrangler 4 door & they are great on & off road. Best Traction off road I have had.
Bought BF Goodrich tires again
I drive a 1979 Toyota Landcruiser FJ40 that I have had for 30 years, and it has always had BF Goodrich tires on it. I first put All Terrains on it at 66,000 miles and have since put a total of 3 sets of All Terrains and one set of Mud Terrains KM's on it. I just put a set of Mud Terrain KM3's on it today (at 250,000 miles) as the previous KM's have become too old. I wasn't driving it much and not paying attention to the age of the tire and realized that they were 11 years old. Not once have I ever been stranded due to a tire related problem, The only time I have to use a jack is when I rotate the tires. I have been extremely please with all the tires, but even more so with these latest KM3's. Unbelievably quiet and smooth riding, There has been a huge change since the original KM. This will probably be the last set of tires I'll put on the vehicle but my grandson will probably enjoy them since he will be the next to own it.
Awesome, BMWGSrider! Thanks for sharing!

KM3
Spent a week driving the new Jeep Wrangler JL with the new 35” KM3. Recommended psi is 40 I believe or at least that what psi was in them. At 40 a little hard & noiser. Dropped to 32 psi & loved the ride & noise was not an issue. Is did tread to surface test & had full tread coverage. Did some off road running tires @15 & had fantastic traction!
Thanks for the awesome review Srisk331! BFGoodrich customers ROCK!

I love them
I love them. I’ve had all three versions of the mud terrain line on my truck (I have owned it for over thirty years, 316,000 miles). The original looked great, wore reasonably well but mileage suffered. The KM2 provided poor mileage and looked worn after 5000 miles. I didn’t like them at all and went to Cooper’s for the next set. I didn’t want to buy the KM3 when it was time for new tires but the comparable All Terrain was too wide for my wheels so I went ahead and got the KM3s (255/85 16- Tall and skinny). My mileage is back to what I was getting with stock tires. No noticeable road noise, of course my 4x4 Cummins is kinda noisy already. Finally, I’m not sure how many miles I have put on them but probably at least 10K and they still look the same as new. I’m not doing heavy offroad driving but snow, mud and steep gravel driveways have not been a problem so I think traction is more than adequate.
Excellent Offroad Tire
I’ve been running 37 and now 39” BFG KM3 for the last 8 years on two vehicles. They are outstanding tires. Provide great traction and are very durable in the rocks. They always easily balance and are significantly lighter than competitors mud tires.
Third set on off-road land cruiser
These are 45,000 miles off-road tires that might lack a little mud traction but make up in all other forms of off-road traction. They’re quiet on the streets, Good, breaking when, wet and tougher side wall with its polyester fibers embedded in the sidewall rubber making it virtually split proof
Great mixed terrain use tire. Back roads and snow.
Tire is high traction off road profile. I live in the mountains of Central Arizona. Most mileage is dirt, rocky off road with a mix of wet snow and occasional long hiway runs.
