Benefits of BFGoodrich 20% tougher sidewalls featuring race-proven CoreGard technology to take on the toughest road hazards with confidence.1 CoreGard technology - Tougher sidewall rubber: Split and bruise-resistant sidewall rubber, derived from BFGoodrich's race-proven Baja T/A KR2 tyre. Thicker, extended shoulder rubber: Increased rubber thickness, extending down the sidewall to protect more of the critical sidewall failure zone.
20% Tougher Sidewalls
The KO2 uses CoreGard technology developed in the Baja T/A KR2 tyre for split and bruise-resistant sidewall rubber and a thicker, extended shoulder to reduce the risk of sidewall damage. Computer modeling was used to predict object paths creating a sidewall design most likely to deflect protruding objects, reducing the chances of splits and snags. The result is a tougher D74 tyre allowing you to take on terrain in all conditions.
Longer Tread Life On & Off Road
The KO2 tyre 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 KO tyre. The tread rubber has been optimally blended to reduce the risk of tread chipping and tearing on gravel.
Off-Road test Based on commissioned third-party gravel endurance tests vs BFGOODRICH All-Terrain T/A KO tyre size LT265/70R17. All claims based on pre-production tyre testing.
