Bf goodrich ko2

I don't think this has been covered I was just about to order some bf goodrich at tyres and I have come across these new bf goodrich at ko2's being released 1,11,14 so I think I might have to wait for some of these depending on price difference, I just hope there aren't released in us on that date and other country's have to wait a lot longer.( could someone put a pic up for me please I have not done the photobucket thing yet,thanks )

I can see bfg aust loosing out on some sales here, as poeple will just buy online, and have them fitted local
With an expected rrp of 260ea and an average freight cost of $550 to send them here that's $2035 for 5 shipped with gst included, not to bad if ask me for a set 33's
farting is alot like jxxxxxg off. both provide instant gratification, but neither is a long term solution to the actual problem......................

Was hoping I'd be able to get them before end of November but looking unlikely here in uk.

I had issues balancing my KM2's as well. Had to get them road force balanced in the end. $30 a tyre.

My KM2's have done 55K+ and are nearly shagged, they have worn perfectly and have never been rebalanced since fitted new, only a couple of small stick on weights on each wheel. Factory SR5 17's.


If you ask me KM2's are a perfect AT tyre.

does anyone know if BFG have any plans on updating their km2 tyre any time soon? or if they plan to release a tyre to compete with the ST Maxx and ATZ P3?

Anyone found anything new out about these? I'm waiting to get some in 275/70r17. All the tyre places i've spoken to in my area wouldn't have a clue. Australian release date would be helpful, or who can get them imported?

Currently waiting on my 265/70/17, they are estimating delivery around june/july. Goodyear was the only place that could even give me that answer. $370 per tyre fitted

The new at ko2 are realised but not in all sizes yet they are realising the main sizes atm and just waiting on getting enough stock made of the other sizes to warrant putting them out there for people to buy so they don't have back orders till mid 2016 hahhah and km2 are one of the best mud tyres to balance their may be a couple with heavy spots but nothing compared to other top name brands they if you don't own a lead factory you wont be getting them balanced.

My old man just ordered a set in 285/75/16. They should be in now, Im keen to see them. They will be my next tyre if I can make my current tyres last until my size is released.

Cheers,

Chris.
