    Welcome to another tire review made by the Trails team. This time around we are re-looking at an well-known all-terrain tire, the BF Goodrich KO2. This is an established and very desired AT tire, especially for its looks and toughness. So… you might be probably wondering why decided to remake the BFG KO2 core tests… well we have been contacted by the BFG representatives here and they requested for us to retest the tire with a slightly larger size 215.70R16. We agreed to this request and decided to show you how the tire stands on its own.
    The video itself is packed with information, so you might want to pause it or review it from time to time, learning about tires is never easy and you need to see before you decide rather than just looking into our AT tires chart.
    As a conclusion we named the KO2 as the Mercenary King of AT tires, because it is toughest AT, is able to tackle all terrains, favors speed and fun, has the looks and the bling and also the cost to match.
    Should you buy KO2s?... YES of course, it has its own style and personality. Most of our new members have them as they are a safer/stronger tire in offroad for them, due to their lack of experience and the need for a more aggressive image. Just remember that this is an offroad tire, it is less for asphalt and more for the terrain where it can bite.
    PS. The eagle represents the powerful American BFG Marketing and the Michelin logo, the French brand who owns BFG.

    • @DaciaDusterTrails
      @DaciaDusterTrails  3 роки тому +2

      Depends on the MUD, if its deeper mud then the AT34S if its just surface mud on a hard terrain then its the KO2, AT34S cleans a bit better than the KO2. As for the snow they are a bit similar with AT34S having advantages again based on terrain. But as a rule KO2 is weaker in the mud, what you see in the video is a road with mud and as any road it does have gravel in it.

      Depinde mult de marimea anvelopei si greutatea masinii. Din pacate nu testam asa de mult pe JGC incat sa fim familairi cu presiunile respective. Tu esti cel mai in masura sa simti anvelopa in teren in functie de nevoile tale. CU cat scazi mai mult cu tata ai mai multa tractiune... sa nu cobori insa sub 1.2 - 1.4bari ca incepe riscul de dejantare sa creasca simtitor.

    This is the weakness of the Duster. 4x4s with low gear do not decouple. You can drive a Toyota or Nissan etc. at 100 km/h in 4WD hi on the autostrada in the snow no problem. The Duster was designed as an AWD. You put it in 4WD lock for a few minutes only to get up a snowy driveway to your chalet. The Duster was never meant for actual off-roading. Having said that, with a few modifications it is not half bad for what it is!

      Its a bit larger in print on ground and deflates better as it has a larger inner surface to inflate, it also absorbs the bumps better. Its not huge but enough to notice, its also lighter that the smaller 65 one... yeah BFG takes weird decisions.

      No AT tire handles well mud, what mud you see for the BFG KO2 in the video - has gravel in the mud, if you want to upgrade your tire for mud, put chains on the tires or deflate them to 1.2 bar also SPIN the tires to clean them (from your video I see you don't know how to drive on mud). The AT34S is still the optimal at tire overall. PS - Do you know the difference between agricultural mud and mountain mud? (is gravel=small rocks)
