Any one mount bf Goodrich all terrain?

If so have they changed the ride much? How about road noise?

I have yet to use them. That being said, those are going to be the tires that I purchase. A good buddy of mine who I shoot Skeet with at our gun club every Thursday evening is the Manager of the Tire Rack Distribution facility down here in Midway GA. He stands by those tires and says they are without a doubt the best A/T's out there. Before I was even done asking him what he thought of them he was saying that. I trust Bob's opinion.

Same here I put them on my 2014 f-250 regular cab diesel great tire but did not last I only run them 6 months a year and have a full set of studded winter tires as a Plow with this truck as well only got a total of 60,000kms on the truck now so I would say 30,000kms "around 19,000 miles" on the bfg's and they are beyond worn out going to try toyo's next spring

Ran 35x12.5 BFG AT KO2 on my 16 diesel. They can only run 65psi...ride was great, noise was very low and they look great. Cannot comment on life.

I have the BFG's on my current SD (315's). I have had them for years on several trucks and they are a great tire in my opinion. Have gotten good tread life out of all sets (65k plus with proper rotation). The draw back that I had on my current SD is that the tire was one weight class lower. I would not get them again if they were not equal in weight rating to the stock tires on my new truck. I have not looked or researched this at all on the new ones, but I think my current BFG's are load range D and my stock tires were load range E. This is something I would watch out for. I have also heard tire guys complain about balancing them….I have a huge stack of weights on my inner wheels, so there may be some truth to this. Im no tire expert either. I have no intent this time around of getting tires until the new ones wear out, lol. I will cross that bridge when I come to it. That may be the time when I regret getting the 20's after I see the price!

I'm running 325's AT KO2's on my 2013 and love the look, wear and ride. Some of the newer ones don't have the white letters.

I have the old style ATs and like them. A couple of them did require a lot of weight to balance. They are noisier than the stock tires were but are not that bad. I currently have 39k on them and they have 7/32nds tread left, they will not last as long as the set I ran on my old F150 but will last long enough for me. I rotate them every 5k and run the pressure at 68psi which is about the lowest I can go without the TPMS going off.

I've run them on my last 4 Superduties and several F150s and Toyotas before that going back 25 plus years. Maybe it's just me...or more hp in the rear of the trucks, but they used to last MORE miles then they do now. Like someone above mentioned, Could get a solid 60,000 out of the A/Ts. Not so much any more. Can only manage high 40's maybe 50,000 if I run them down. To me honestly, doesn't seem to be the same rubber as it used to be. That being said, I'm running 285/65/20 KO2's on my new F250. Here's a pic

I have a set of the BFG A/T KO 2s (LT285-65-20) on order for my F350. The tires have a load rating of E and max load of 3860lbs which is slightly higher than the stock tires load rating of 3750lbs. The tires can be inflated to max 80psi rating, also similar to stock.

Same here, I love them and hate the Michelin that come with the truck.

I have a 2015 F350 4x4 and I'm wondering will the 325-60-20 BF Goodrich KO2's fit on stock? Seems like KO2's is smaller than the old style KO's?
Thanks!

No....but i'm looking at the BDS 1" front level right now. Just want it a hair higher in the front. That's my dad's Ruby Red in the background. He's running same tires..285/65/20 BFG KO2's. We ordered them same day...these were the 6 month trucks. 6 months to the day after we ordered, they came in. Well worth the wait though.
