Bfg KM3

[amrg]

Anyone running those tires in the 35" size? How do they compare to other tires?

Planning on changing tires soon and those are available!

Following.... I'm a week or two away from ordering a set of KM3 in 35", so any feedback from anyone currently running them would be greatly appreciated.

I would recommend Nitto Trail Grapplers. Mine are 35’s and preformed great at Moab. Previously had BFG KO2’s and had chunks of tread get ripped off when I took them off-road.

I wish it was easy in my case but in this country im extremely limited in tire options and currently there only two options for 37" tires,
Goodyear MT kevlars @ 600 USD
BFG KM3 (first ever batch to come in 37") @ 325 USD

The price alone makes me go fpr the BFG. The tire weight (less) is another major reason!

I couldnt find actually reviews online by people who bought it for the KM3 and the 37s only came out last October.

Km3 is a nice meaty looking tire. I might give them a go when tire time comes around but I've been pretty happy with the STT pro so far.

Dealer sent me this pic of the 37" KM3 next to a 35" cooper At3 tire (which is what I currently have but badly worn out)

If anyone has KM3s, or even just sees them in the wild, see what plant the 35s are made in. I've asked BF Goodrich repeatedly, but they either don't want me to know for some reason or are too lazy to look it up. I live near the Woodburn plant where the KM2s we're made, and supporting the local economy was ulimately what swayed me to buy those. I'd probably do the same for my next set if I could find out where they are made. Woodburn would have "BF" for the first two characters in the DOT code. Thanks in advance for anyone who checks.

I was happy with my KM2s when I had them.

I’ve run a couple sets of the KM2’s. But 37’s. Just ordered the KM3’s. They look great. Should have them on Friday and mounted within the next week or two. Can post pics when I get them

Do you really need KM3s just to go to the mall?

Gotta look good when profiling at the mall. Parking blocks sometimes are big

I've had 2 generations of Km's in 31's on my cherokee, and KM2's in 35's that are 3 years old on my T. Never had any complaints with any of them other than the cost. When these wear out, i'll but whatever the newest KM is to replace them.

Only downside i've seen with them is that they are no good in icy or packed snow. Not a fault of the tire - no real way around it with a blocky mud terrain. I've had my last 2 set's siped and it makes an absolute world of difference when driving in winter and even the rain.

How is the driveability/noise for the KM2s?
I ran hankooks on the H3 amd it was fine. Only problem is the tire cracked and broke apart aired down on my brothers JK after 2 years so Im staying away from them. Otherwise slightly louder tire noise.

New they are fairly quiet for the type of tire. Rotate and balance regularly, definitely helps. As they wear down, they are noisier. Expected though. I’m at 60k currently with them. Way happy with that. After all, if the noise of them bother you? Smh! That’s why they made radios, turn it up[emoji1787]

My friend just installed em and said the 37s were quieter than his 35" KO2s. They are C rated though and he drives a jeep so I dont know if he is exaggerating or what!
My current set of Coopers have 75K on em. The fronts are done but the rears have abother 5K on em and im very happy with tread life.
