Top 3 Best BFGoodrich Tires for 2026
BFGoodrich makes a lot of tires, but let's be honest: only a few of them are the reason anyone walks into a tire shop asking for BFG. This is the brand that invented the all-terrain tire and spent four decades winning Baja with it — so the top of this list writes itself. One change from the old days: the legendary KO2 has been phased out, replaced by the KO3. For the full story on the brand, read our BFGoodrich brand profile.
Here are the three BFGs actually worth your money, ranked.
#1 — All-Terrain T/A KO3: the new king
The 2024 successor to the KO2, and the new default answer for trucks and SUVs. Redesigned tread and sidewall aimed at better mud evacuation, more even wear, and quieter highway manners than the tire it replaces — while keeping the Baja-bred toughness the badge is famous for. It carries the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) severe-snow rating, so it's a legitimate year-round tire in Ontario.
If you drive a pickup, Jeep, 4Runner, or full-size SUV and split time between pavement and dirt, start here. This is the tire the KO2's decade of reputation built — refined.
All-Terrain T/A KO3 — the new king
The current benchmark, launched in 2024 after a decade of racing and development. New tread pattern and all-terrain compound for better wear and gravel-road durability, full-depth 3D locking sipes for even wear over the long haul, CoreGard sidewall technology carried over from BFG's Baja race tires, and serrated shoulders with Mud-Phobic bars that shed mud and bite in snow. Raised white letters available for the classic look. And it carries the 3PMSF severe-snow rating, so it's a legitimate year-round tire for an Ontario truck.
#2 — Winter T/A KSI: the winter answer
BFG's dedicated winter tire, and a proper Canadian winter tire: it carries the 3PMSF rating for severe snow service, with a directional tread and high-density silica compound built for snow, ice, slush, and the freeze-thaw mess of a GTA winter. One honest note: it is not studdable, so if you want metal studs for rural ice, look at a different tire. For everyone else — salted highways, plowed subdivisions, ski trips to Blue Mountain — it's the real thing.
Here's the move most truck owners miss: the KO3 also carries the 3PMSF rating. If you drive a pickup or full-size SUV, you can run KO3s year-round and skip the seasonal swap entirely. A dedicated winter like the KSI still wins on glare ice, but the KO3 is the best one-tire answer in the current BFG lineup for a Canadian truck.
#3 — Mud-Terrain T/A KM3: the trail weapon
The serious off-road tire — massive tread blocks, stupid-tough sidewalls, and a howl on the highway that tells everyone exactly what you bought. It ranks third because it's a specialist: for trail rigs, not daily drivers. But in its lane, nothing in the BFG lineup touches it. If your truck sees more dirt than driveway, this is the one. Know what you're buying.
Honorable mention: Trail-Terrain T/A+
The crossover compromise, updated. Launched in June 2026 as the replacement for the original Trail-Terrain T/A, the T/A+ brings 25% longer wear, 10% better wet traction, and a 65,000-mile warranty — still 3PMSF-rated. For RAV4s, CR-Vs, and Highlanders whose off-roading tops out at gravel cottage roads and snowy driveways. Quieter and better-mannered than the KO3, tougher-looking and more capable than a highway all-season. The honest pick for most GTA SUV owners who like the look but live on pavement.
The quick verdict
- Truck or SUV, pavement and dirt: KO3. The new king.
- Dedicated winter tire: Winter T/A KSI — unless you run KO3s year-round.
- Trail rig: KM3. Nothing else in the lineup touches it off-road.
- Crossover that lives on pavement: Trail-Terrain T/A+.

FAQ
Q: What is the best BFGoodrich tire overall? A: The All-Terrain T/A KO3. Launched in 2024 as the successor to the KO2, it pairs a redesigned tread and sidewall — better mud evacuation, more even wear, quieter highway manners — with the Baja-bred toughness the badge is famous for, plus a three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) severe-snow rating for year-round use in Ontario.
Q: What replaced the BFGoodrich KO2? A: The All-Terrain T/A KO3. The KO2 has been phased out, and the KO3 is its direct successor — redesigned for better mud evacuation, more even wear, and quieter highway manners while keeping the 3PMSF severe-snow rating. If you loved the KO2, the KO3 is the tire you buy now.
Q: What is the best BFGoodrich winter tire? A: The Winter T/A KSI. It's BFG's dedicated winter tire with the 3PMSF severe-snow rating, built for snow, ice, and slush. Note that it is not studdable — if you want metal studs, choose a different tire. Truck and SUV owners can also run the All-Terrain T/A KO3 year-round since it carries the 3PMSF rating too.
Q: Are BFGoodrich tires good for Ontario winters? A: Yes. The Winter T/A KSI is a dedicated winter tire with the three-peak mountain snowflake rating for severe snow service. The All-Terrain T/A KO3 also carries the 3PMSF rating, so truck and SUV owners can run it year-round and skip the seasonal swap — though a dedicated winter still wins on glare ice.
Q: Can I run the BFGoodrich KO3 year-round in the GTA? A: Yes. The KO3 carries the 3PMSF severe-snow rating, so you can run it all twelve months in Ontario. It's the best one-tire answer in the current BFG lineup for a Canadian truck or full-size SUV. A dedicated winter tire like the Winter T/A KSI still outperforms it on glare ice.
Q: What is the best BFGoodrich tire for serious off-roading? A: The Mud-Terrain T/A KM3. Massive tread blocks and extremely tough sidewalls built for trail rigs — but it's loud on the highway and overkill for a daily driver. For mixed pavement and dirt, the All-Terrain T/A KO3 is the smarter pick.
Q: Where can I buy BFGoodrich tires in the GTA? A: From Sparky X Mobile Tire Shop. We sell and install BFGoodrich tires across the GTA at your driveway — text or call (647) 819-0490 with your tire size for a straight quote, or read our BFGoodrich brand profile first.
