This tire isn't available in size for your 1977 American Motors Hornet Wagon.

The BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2—frequently known as the "BFG KO2"—is an Off-Road All-Terrain light truck tire developed to meet the needs of jeep, pickup truck and sport utility vehicle drivers who want confidence and control on and off road. The All-Terrain T/A KO2 was designed by BFGoodrich to deliver go-anywhere traction along with outstanding durability, great wear and year-round traction, even in snow.

All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires feature a racing derived cut-, chip- and tear-resistant tread compound that delivers longer life (up to 2 times the previous generation tire's treadwear on gravel roads). The compound is molded into an aggressive, computer optimized, high-void all-terrain pattern with interlocking tread blocks, innovative siping and multiple loose object ejection features to combine off-road durability and traction with on-road handling and acceptable noise.

BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2Upper shoulder Sidewall Armor features a tougher sidewall rubber compound that's twice as thick as its predecessor and a Serrated Shoulder Design that delivers additional traction by providing the clawing action necessary to develop traction and steering control in deep dirt, sand or on rock during "aired down" off-road driving.

The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced with spirally wrapped nylon on top of BFGoodrich's TriGard, 3-ply polyester cord sidewall ply construction (2 plies for Load Range C tires) for strength and durability.

Single strand beads (a single strand of bead wire is continuously wrapped multiple times until the desired strength is provided) enhance the tire's fit to the wheel to improve uniformity and ride quality.

NOTE: BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tires meet the industry's severe snow service requirements and are branded with the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.

...Good wet traction...

Have these on method race wheels on my 2017 Outback. Second set of KO2 tires. Very impressed with quality of tires. Great braking traction - has already saved me from hitting deer. Good on road traction. Good wet traction. Cornering and steering feel more direct and tight with a new set of tires. Have not taken this specific set through much, but past sets of KO2s have served me very very well in the mud snow and dirt. Great all around feel and looks very good and aggressive. Slight road noise from an aggressive looking tire, but not as bad as you would think. Have a few friends who have had them on their trucks and they also talk very highly of these. Great all terrain tire and would highly recommend to anyone

Pleasantly surprised and very happy with the KO2's wet traction, acceleration, and stopping distance. It obviously doesn't perform at the level of a high performance sport tire, but it does very well on wet pavement for an All Terrain tire. The KO2's are also a BEAST in the snow - handled 5" on unplowed roads without a problem on my AWD vehicle this past winter. And x look is A++ on trucks and SUVs. Absolutely would buy again. Only downsides is that my fuel efficiency is down about 1.5 MPG - totally worth it to me, because I love the aggressive look and the RWL white letters.

...Rain, snow, highway, and offroad...

These tires were on my truck when I purchased it (New in 2017) from the dealer with (Tuscany package) the KO2's have performed extremely well. All weather conditions for the Great Northwest apply.
Rain, snow, highway, and offroad. They have given a fairly smooth ride for such a large aggressive all terrain-tire (325/60R20). I am currently looking to replace them with either the same KO2 or KO3, not decided yet. (currently re-searching the KO3 performance in comparison to the KO2 ).

...Been through mud, ice, snow, over fallen tree limbs, and the occasional winter highway trips...

Put these tires on an extra set of rims in 2020 for winter roads and hunting - mountain dirt roads and still running them - 2025. Been through mud, ice, snow, over fallen tree limbs, and the occasional winter highway trips. A little rougher ride than my summer Michelins (which are TERRIBLE in the winter months) but overall - a solid “10”!

Best tire purchase for the money. I was on a hill with snow and ice, these things grab like crazy. Took them in sand and mud, I have a front wheel drive van with 800pd load on the back and went through without any problem. Will be purchasing these when I need another set.

The on-road experience is as most have said with quiet, decent performance, overall...

The KO2 have performed well for my use. The on-road experience is as most have said with quiet, decent performance, overall. The off-road is where these tires shine. I completed a trip in Death Valley on a variety of roads, putting about 400 off-road miles on these tires, carrying a very heavy truck bed camper. Traction and handling on washboard, dirt, soft sand, large rocks and small rocks both up and down grades up to 30%, were outstanding. I aired down to about 50% for most off-road conditions to improve ride and soft road traction. Mine are load range E tires so the comfort did not improve much but I was in some pretty tough conditions so I didn’t want the sidewalls to bulge out too much for fear of damage. I saw three flats in one day heading out to Racetrack Playa, so I knew the sharp rocks were slicing and puncturing tires. After the trip I inspected the tires for damage and found barely a scratch. I would definitely buy these again or now opt for the KO3s

This exact tire is optimal for this vehicle and added to the certainty an FJ emotes as it rolls. With Faux Bead TRD rims, the tire fills the wheel well with an optimal offset and appeal.

...On a vehicle with solid axles, expect 70, 000 miles out of them with proper maintenance. Independent suspension vehicles will get about 25,000 miles less cuz they aren't as stable and rigid...

Been driving on BFG A/T tires since the 80s. Toughest tire on the planet. I have always had them siped, which increases snow and ice traction, reduces hydroplaning, and increases tread life. Aired down, they sometimes have a tendency to wear the sidewalls above the side bars which I think should come further up the sidewall, but never had a serious issue with them. One time I had a sharp rock peel a chunk of rubber about half the size of my palm off the center of the tread right down to the steel belts, drove it home over 400 miles. Like I said, the toughest tire out there.

The snow and ice traction with them siped is equal to most winter tires I've seen. We get plenty of snow and extreme cold here in ND so we get the worst winter weather. They have never let me down.

On a vehicle with solid axles, expect 70, 000 miles out of them with proper maintenance. Independent suspension vehicles will get about 25,000 miles less cuz they aren't as stable and rigid.

My personal opinion: the original A/T wasn't really great offroad, but it was VERY durable. The KO was the better tire for winter than the KO2. The shoulder tread blocks clean out better in mud on the KO2. The KO was slightly more stable on pavement cuz of the more closed shoulder blocks. Both excell offroad but don't confuse them with a mud tire, which most people don't need anyway, people buy mud tires for the looks, then complain about cupping, noise, and tire wear... The KO2 is slightly more prone to cupping on pavement than the KO if you don't keep up with the tire rotations but it's not a severe problem. Both have excellent pavement manners. Don't like the looks of the KO3, the tread is too closed up, definitely won't have the offroad traction of the KO2, especially in sand, mud, or snow. It's too biased towards pavement use. Won't buy them when I wear out the sets I have on my vehicles now. Probably will go with Mickey Thompson, they're a tough tire too which I also would recommend.

...Gravel hasn't chewed them up at all, and they still work great after 2yrs!...

I absolutely LOVE these tires! Can not recommend them enough. I understand that the 02's are out and the 03's are the new model, but I imagine they're about the same.
These tires handle everything I throw at them living on a ranch in south east Kansas and driving to Denver and up in the mountains once in a while. Gravel roads, ice, snow, rain. they just keep working, whether I'm towing or not. ( recommend Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains - Diamond Pattern - Square Link - Assisted Tensioning TC2327 if you need such a thing). Gravel hasn't chewed them up at all, and they still work great after 2yrs! when they die I will be replacing with the sane (03's now I guess)
