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.

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!

Great look, terrible tread wear

The KM3's look sooooo good, and they preform well on dirt but.......the tread wear has been horrendous. I have about 14,000 miles on them and they cup so bad. I have some knobs that don't even touch the ground. I have to rotate them every 2000 to 4000 miles other wise the treads get so cupped out that the truck vibrates. I can feel each tread lug knocking on the asphalt. I even had my truck realigned just to eliminate that as a possible cause for the early wear and I still only got a couple thousand miles out of them after a fresh alignment before I had to rotate the tires again. The tread overall has worn out fast and is noticeably smaller also. Really disappointed and not sure where to go from here with these.

BEST MT TIRE

I purchased a set of 35" BFG Mud Terrains a few years back for the first time and loved them. When I was ready to move up to 37's they were out of stock. So, I purchased a set of Discovery SST Coopers in 37". Good tire but I sold them as I felt that they couldn't compete with my KM3. SO now my FJ Cruiser and JK Rubicon are both sitting on KM3 tires. These are great for the daily drive and excellent on the rocks. My JK will now move up to 39" KM3s as soon as these 37's wear down and my dana 60’s get built. Needless to say this will no longer be a daily driver. Unfortunately, this isn't happening fast enough. But I absolutely love these, and I think highly recommend them without a doubt.

Great looking tires!

Bought 5 of them around June 2021, have about 35,000. moles on them. They’re on a 2021 Toyota Tacoma Off Road 4x4 , ride nice even today with 35% of the tread gone. No excessive noise. Pretty quiet to be truthful. Won’t hold gravel in the treads like All Terrain will. Definitely buy again

Terrible treadlife

I bought these tires new from discount tire, not even a year ago after buying my truck (2020 chevy 2500hd diesel 4x4), some dirt/mud but mostly asphalt driving, and the tread is at 6/32 out of 20/32 from new. In less than a year I have almost completely worn these tires out what a waste of $1600, Not to mention they are the noisiest m/t I have ever ran, I will be going to to Firestone m/t 2s , so far they are way better than these tires. Tire pressures were 65 rear and 60psi front rotation at every 5k miles (tires lasted 14,500 miles before replacing) No towing during this period.

been running bfg km's since the km1

i love bfg . before i ran the muds. i ran the ko's. iv'e got km2's on my yj. ran km2's on my tj. they wore out. got km3's . they seem smaller. wear faster, and most 0f all don't come with white wall on the 33x12.5x15. at least that's what discount tire told me. i did little muddy creek , and the tires WOULD NOT clean themselves like older designs. the guys i was running with had ko's , and their tires did better then mine. however.... at 10 psi on rocks . they " rock" !

Great till 20k

I agree with the user above the tires are great and you hit about 20,000 miles I purchased 10/2019 And just replaced got them at 31k miles just replaced at 60k with lots of tread left. The more miles you get the more wobbly kids and shaky it made me think my limit was off or something else was wrong now tired or replace not a single issue alignment was fine. It felt like the tires were going to shake off..

I recommend this tire

really soft

I bought a set of KM3s over the summer for my 2016 Chevy Colorado Duramax and have used them for mostly on road driving with 4-5 easy going offered trips. I have found that they have wonderful traction on rocks, mud, and snow but they are a little soft. My tires have 5k miles on them and I have massive chunks (entire lugs) missing from my rear tires. Each time I go crawling or off road driving they lose more and more. Overall a wonderful tire but haven't lasted me at all.

Not for pavement

I purchased for my F250. Could not use cruise control or automatic traction control enroute to the mountains. Increased braking distance on pavement -BUT off road spectacular.

No tread life

Installed these tires on my Ram 2500, they have no tread left. Less then 8000 miles on them. Rotated them twice. They look nice when new, but wear out fast, not worth the purchase price.

Blown sidewall

Weak sidewalls, bought because I hoped they were tougher than stock bighorns but after 2 months and normal recreational driving already have two sidewalls with punctures.
