Special features on the BFGoodrich ALL-TERRAIN T/A® KO2 tires

Stronger COREGARD MAX sidewall technology

BFGoodrich spent extra time on the sidewall design.

BFGoodrich ALL-TERRAIN T/A KO2 tire

Tougher Rubber— Split and bruise resistant sidewall rubber, derived from BFGoodrich’s race proven Baja T/A®KR2 tire.

The KO2 uses CoreGard technology developed in the Baja T/A KR2 for split and bruise-resistant sidewall rubber and a thicker, extended shoulder to prevent sidewall failures. Computer modeling was used to predict object paths and create a sidewall design most likely to deflect protruding objects, reducing the chances of splits and snags. The result is a tougher tire as consumers take on trails of various conditions.

Thicker, Extended Shoulder—Increased rubber thickness, extending down the sidewall to protect more of the critical sidewall failure zone.

Longer lasting

The KO2 has a new tread design and rubber formulation

that helps it last twice as long on gravel and 15 percent longer on asphalt than the previous tire. The tread rubber has been optimally blended to reduce chips and tears on gravel. A new footprint shape and interlocking tread design provide more uniform wear over the long haul. Special stone ejectors push objects out of the tread to reduce drilling into the tire.

Improved Performance

The KO2 improves its already legendary tradition of all-terrain performance with 10 percent greater traction in the mud and 19% greater traction in the snow compared to the previous-generation KO tire.

Advanced Deflection—
Computer predicted object path design deflects protruding objects from snagging and splitting the sidewall.

Aggressive Traction

The KO2 also has a range of tread features for better mud and snow traction. Side-Biter lugs in the sidewall improve traction in mud, snow and rocks. Raised bars in the shoulder help release compacted mud for better traction in soft soil. 3-D sipes create biting edges for better snow traction.

Thicker, Extended Shoulder—Increased rubber thickness, extending down the sidewall to protect more of the critical sidewall failure zone.

Serrated Shoulder Lugs—Protruding sidewall rubber blocks that provide increased mud, snow and rock traction, especially in aired-down driving situations.
