The Tyre Reviews Score is the most comprehensive tyre scoring system available. It aggregates professional test data from multiple independent publications, user reviews, and consistency analysis using Bayesian statistical methods, weighted normalisation, and recency-adjusted scoring to produce a single, reliable performance rating.

Methodology & Configuration
Scoring Process
  1. Collect Test Data: Gather results from professional tyre tests across multiple publications. Minimum 1 test(s) required.
  2. Normalize Positions: Convert test positions to percentile scores using exponential weighting (factor: 1.2).
  3. Apply Recency Weighting: More recent tests are weighted higher with a decay rate of 0.95.
  4. Incorporate User Reviews: Factor in user review data (minimum 5 reviews). Weight: 15%.
  5. Bayesian Smoothing: Apply Bayesian prior (score: 7, weight: 1.5) to prevent extreme scores with limited data.
  6. Calculate Final Score: Combine all components using normalization factor of 1.1. Max score with limited data: 9.5.

Questions and Answers for the BFGoodrich AllTerrain TA KO

Ask a question
December 15, 2018

Is the Bf Goodrich All Terrain KO (NOT the KO2!) M+S rated?

The tread pattern definitely qualifies for the M+S mark, I couldn't tell you if it will have it printed on the sidewall.

Given 53% while driving a Dacia Duster 4x4 (215/65 R16) on a combination of roads for 0 easy going miles
The tires are getting increasingly louder in Dacia Duster until it is no longer bearable although the tread depth is still OK

Given 65% while driving a Land Rover Discovery Series 2 TD5 (235/70 R16 S) on a combination of roads for 75,000 average miles
I've bought these BF to get better performance off-road while using 50/50 on/off-road environment. These was the best tyres I had for weekend off-road usage or sometimes a more agressive all terrain driving and hill descent on dry or mud conditions. Very good grip off-road Good for snow, never tested on ice Not very good for sand as we need to lower pressure a lot (until about 13 PSI) compared to other softer tyres I'll change to another brand because despite I like them a lot they don't perform well on road specially on wet conditions where I drastically loose steering and break capacity They lasted for almost 6 years/75000 miles rolling every day what I consider an excellent duration

Given 64% while driving a Jeep Wrangler 4.0 (265/75 R15) on mostly town for 60,000 easy going miles
Very sturdy tyre, used on a jeep wrangler. Will last a long time with no issues. Potentially dangerous in wet though, maintain large distance in those conditions with these tyres. Trading them in for smaller, more fuel efficient tyres.

Initial Impressions Review
Given 74% while driving a (245/65 R16) on mostly country roads for 20,000 spirited miles
Great tire, updated twice since I had them. Really good off road, quite a hard compound on road. Absolutely a great choice back in the day.

Now I run Maxxis RAZR AT811, but wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a KO3.

Given 86% while driving a Mitsubishi Pajero Shogun SWB v60 (265/70 R16 S) on a combination of roads for 22,000 average miles
These tyres are really very good. Only problem is the average wet grip.
In offroad they are really good, only in deep mud they are not the best around (but they are not a mud tyre!!).
They are marked M+S with snow flake so no problem in winter period (good traction on snowy roads).
In my case they wear a bit quicker than normal (but I had problem with rear camber). Now I'm using the new KO2 that are even better than the old KO (mostly on wet road).

Given 100% while driving a Land Rover Defender (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 40,000 easy going miles
Fantastic, I had these on a 90 td5. No issues with these once I had them on the vehicle, went everywhere (at the time lived in rural N/E Scotland) snow, rivers, muddy fields, forests and roads. They wore really well, were extremely robust and didn't make much noise. Fuel economy wasn't great, but I was driving a un-aerodynamic brick with a roof rack.

Given 91% while driving a Land Rover Discovery 1 1996 (235/70 R16 R) on a combination of roads for 75,000 average miles
Best tyre I've found for grip longevity and value for money so far they've done 75,000 miles and still got 4mil of tread

Given 76% while driving a Mitsubishi shogun sport (245/70 R16) on a combination of roads for 70 average miles
These tyres have quite poor wet road grip,and very sudden 'breakaway',but i would reasonably expect this on an aggressive off-road biased tyre,you cannot have it all your own way, but the payback is superb traction in mud and snow,i have never been stuck with these tyres.The pair i have on currently have done 70,000 miles!!,the thing is there is STILL 4-5mm on them,i cannot believe how hard-wearing they are,i have already bought anther set ready for when they finally give up,which is a while away yet.A superb piece of equipment.

Given 43% while driving a Ford Ranger (245/75 R15) on a combination of roads for 6,250 easy going miles
The BF Goodrich tyre flatters to deceive.
We loved them, have had them on all our 4x4 and 2x4 vehicles.
This last batch have worn down excessively quickly on the road and we are not going to buy again.

Given 47% while driving a Land Rover Discovery 2 (245/70 R16) on mostly country roads for 15,000 easy going miles
Good tyre for tar and sand but I overland and the tyre could not handle the off road conditions and basically disintegrated at 20 000 km.

Given 81% while driving a Land Rover Range Rover P38 (245/65 R16 T) on a combination of roads for 65,000 average miles
Outstanding all terrain tyre. Good road performance, with good grip in wet or dry, acceptably quiet under all conditions and excellent in snow. Superb performance off road regardless of surface. They've done 65k miles on (70%) and off (30%) road so far and are only 2/3 worn. Would highly recommend and will definately be buying another set.

Given 80% while driving a Vauxhall Isuzu Rodeo Denver (245/70 R16) on a combination of roads for 23,000 spirited miles
Obviously this is a 4x4 tyre so difficult to rate the feedback and progressiveness of these tyres.

I have had these tyres on my double cab pick up since I was given it for work. Very little road noise, excellent wear rate, and good grip both on and off-road. Can geta little dodgey on the road when it is wet especially when wearing down to their limit so beware! Doesn't help that most of the time I have no weight in the back mind.

Definately have these fitted again though
