I switched the Kumho Crugens that came with my 2022 Santa Cruz SEL nonturbo with activity to BF Goodrich Trail Terrain, still at 245/60r18 about 2 weeks ago. The Trail Terrain is a lot more quiet, in fact, I can hear the hum of the engine much clearer now. Great in mild snow and ice, never slipped. It also performed very well in the rain and a little puddle, no hydroplaning so far. Cornering is not at good as the Crugen and needed a bit of correction. The ride is almost as comfy as the Crugen, but I can feel the little road imperfections subtly. I averaged 26.8 mpg on the Crugen, the Trail Terrain set me back a dismal 23.9 mpg.
I have bf Goodrich GeForce comp 2 and they are fantastic in the rain. Not sure if they sell a size to fit the stock wheel but 205 45 16 only rubs on hard corners downhill and it’s lowered in coilovers
Yeah, keep rotating them and keep the alignment good. My BFG KO2s are holding up very well, having 40k miles on them.
When i put on BF Goodrich ko3’s I had much more traction in mud and sand
Put on 285/75/r17 KO3s. I didn’t add a lift or level kit, wanted to try it out first. Absolutely love the look and initial feel, can’t wait to try it in the snow this winter and sand next Spring.
IME the bfgs will probably ride better than the generals but both would be decent
I am so glad these were worn out by the time I bought my stock used JK. The minute I put KO2s on there, my Jeep became a real vehicle.
Only have experience with the KO2s. They’re overpriced and get quite loud as they wear and sometimes have balancing issues, especially as they wear down. But I’ll be damned they last forever.
Long ago my first new set of tires were BFG Trail T/A in 33/12.50/15 for my old IH. With less than 5k miles sidewall deteriorated on one tire. Another on opposite corner broke or slipped a belt.
My worst were Bfg km2s. I have loved every Bfg tire I’ve had, but I got a set of km2s and got rid of them in 6 months. The wear life was bad, they were loud as hell, and they didn’t have a comfortable ride.
