Hi , need new tyre; got origional BFG AT's and 2x Trac Edge at rear, new
one needed to front can only find AT Ko's. Are they any good and do they
match the old reasonably well so as not to worry re different performance ??

As far as I can make out, the AT KOs are the same as the old ATs, but
renamed to fit in with the rest of BFG's range. They are given a "key" code
to show what they are designed for.

KO = Key On-road/Off-road
KM = Key Mud
etc.

Bollocks, I know, but bloody good tyres.

The KO's are very slightly different in that the have a tread that
creeps up the side wall very slightly. But other than that they are the
same.


Very good tyre.......but I am a bit biased.

excellent results off-road. On-road, I tend to think they're a tad "hard",
but that of course makes 'em last longer - current set of Pirelli ST on my
disco look like they'll do maybe 20K miles, but they are nice and grippy on
wet tarmac.
