It’s adios to the BFG KO2
I’m still rolling on KOs on the K20 as it appears the KO2 will be discontinued with the KO3 set to hit the market in 2026. Article here: https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/enth...5c324bed&ei=12

Re: It’s adios to the BFG KO2
Seems to be how anything is...if it works great, discontinue it, and replace it with something else.

Re: It’s adios to the BFG KO2
I didn't really love my KO2's. Lots of weight to balance and tendency to cup if not rotated frequently. I had KO's on a couple of different trucks and preferred those.

Re: It’s adios to the BFG KO2
They can say it is improved but I have my doubts. The new tread looks lame to me. Oh well, all good things come to an end. I'll worry about it when mine wear out.

Re: It’s adios to the BFG KO2
I really miss the OG bfg muds. They were a really classic looking mud tire.

Re: It’s adios to the BFG KO2
Looks like the KO3 will not be offered in any 15” sizes

Re: It’s adios to the BFG KO2
I've been seeing alot about bfg and people they sponsor being at odds here lately...
People are dropping bfg and going to other brands..they say bfg has become very hard to deal with...

Re: It’s adios to the BFG KO2
I would say at least we still have the General Grabbers but they are discontinuing sizes too. They will probably be next to change the tread and discontinue sizes.

Re: It’s adios to the BFG KO2
I love mine. Why can't Goodyear discontinue their Wranglers instead. That's what I am always replacing with KO2s.
