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.

Toyo Celsius II Reviews

Feedback consistently shows the Toyo Celsius II delivers excellent comfort with smooth ride quality and low noise levels. Treadwear receives strong praise (8-10 range), though some note earlier-than-expected wear. Winter traction stands out with confident performance in snow and slush, supported by reliable wet grip and hydroplaning resistance. Dry handling is responsive, fitting its grand touring role. While most categories score highly, a few reports of uneven treadwear suggest monitoring alignment and rotation practices for optimal longevity.

...Giving these a shot, I've not had any issues with dry, wet, or snow handling... Steering is good in the winter and the tires overall feel very predictable in inclement weather...

I grew up with my parent's always buying Toyo tires for their vehicles. Dad always purchased Toyo M-55s for his truck and my Mom always had a variant of the Toyo Open Country ATs on her Suburban. We never had any wear issues or compromises from these tires so I figured I'd try the Celsius II on my Mazda CX50. Tires are expensive for the 20" wheels that come on these and while I've previously purchased Michelin CCs for my other vehicles, I couldn't stomach over $300 a tire. Giving these a shot, I've not had any issues with dry, wet, or snow handling. We get a lot less snow in my area than we used to so a decent set of all weather tires with AWD is more than enough to get me through the handful of snowy and icy days. I feel these tires do well on ice and I never had any issues in deep, slushy snow. Light snow it's like the snow isn't there. Steering is good in the winter too and the tires overall feel very predictable in inclement weather. Road noise is somewhere in the middle of a little noisy and not too bad. Overall, happy with my choice. At 10,000 miles all tires have roughly 8-9/32nds of tread remaining.

...The tires handle and maintain traction well under wet conditions...

I picked this tire when my wife's Audi A3 convertible needed new tires and she's very happy with them for highway trips and errands. The tires are very quiet. They make her feel secure because the tires grip well while turning and when braking. The tires handle and maintain traction well under wet conditions. They're a good value as well. These tires have impressed us to the point that I will buy the same tire (or the sport version) for my VW when I need new all-season tires.

...performed better on snow and ice than my last set of dedicated snow tires...

These tires are unreal!
Purchased these tires prior to winter as they were said to be good on snow and ice. I was tired of switching between all-seasons and snows every year. So far these tires have performed better on snow and ice than my last set of dedicated snow tires. If treadware holds up these will be my go to tire for everything going forward.

...Amazing traction in light to medium snow. It's nearly as good as a dedicated snow tire. The tires feel grippy and predictable when sliding in snow, not scary at all...

Biggest pro: Amazing traction in light to medium snow. It’s nearly as good as a dedicated snow tire. The tires feel grippy and predictable when sliding in snow, not scary at all. They do well on wet roads too. Perfect year-round tire here in Utah. It’ll make your 2WD car outperform any AWD car equipped with regular all-seasons.

Biggest con: the soft compound combined with the tall tread blocks (like 12/32”) hurt the dry handling characteristics a bit. Quick steering inputs feel a bit numb. The tire squirms a lot when cornering aggressively. But this gets better over time as the tread blocks wear down and get shorter. This is to be expected though, out of this type of tire.

...I have driven on them in dry conditions, and they have performed well in those situations too...

Bought these tires in October in preparation for driving in cold, long, snowy, Wisconsin winters. I drive a SS Camaro in the summer and store it in winter. I got these tires for the 98 Buick I had just bought as my winter driver. These tires have performed very well in all of the snow we have gotten so far this year. I have driven on them in dry conditions, and they have also performed well in those situations too. There is a bit of tire harmonics that are not as quiet as I would prefer, but it is not over whelming. As far as tire wear goes, I have not put enough miles on them to determine how well they will do in that category. Overall, I would recommend these tires, especially for the price, to anyone who asked me.

...I had these tires on a Subaru Legacy sedan, and it plowed through any weather conditions.

This tire is a game changer because I use them year round, so no need to store and swap tires every six months in NE Ohio. Best part is, the traction on snow and ice does not deminish as the tread wears. I had these tires on a Subaru Legacy sedan, and it plowed through any weather conditions.

...The ones I have on now are significantly quieter and more comfortable than the stock tires...

I wasn't certain how I wanted to rate these. All I can say is, these All-Weather tires are far better in the winter than your regular All-Seasons and they can stay on your car all year. I bought the same tires for another car I had many years ago. The ones I have on now are significantly quieter and more comfortable than the stock tires. You do sacrifice some tread life, and they're not as good as dedicated winter tires in the winter, but they work really well, and you don't have to change them out at the end of the season. Minnesota has extreme temperature fluctuations in the winter so having tires that work well on either an icy winter's day or a warm winter's day is nice to have.

excellent traction under all conditions, particularly in the cold with a tradeoff for noise. The carcass isn't afraid to resonate and hum to road defects, it's noticeable but not objectionable. On smooth roads, the tread noise is subdued (but not silent) to match. Ride is controlled but sidewalls are on the soft side when it comes to steering response and rebound under cornering. It's a balanced all-season snow-performing tourer.
