The BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 has arrived in New Zealand, and it is now available in a huge range of sizes for Kiwi utes, 4WDs and SUVs.
If you want one tyre that can handle the daily commute, gravel roads, wet weekends, farm tracks, boat ramps and proper off-road adventures, the KO3 is built for exactly that. It takes the proven toughness of the legendary KO2 and evolves it for today’s heavier, more capable vehicles.
For drivers who split their time between town, highway and the rough stuff, the KO3 gives you the confidence to go further without swapping tyres every time the plan changes.

The Next Generation of a 4WD Favourite
BFGoodrich has been trusted by off-road drivers for decades, and the KO3 continues that story with a tougher, smarter all-terrain design. It is made for people who need their vehicle to do more than look the part: tradies, farmers, hunters, fishers, campers, overlanders and everyday drivers who want genuine all-terrain capability.
Whether your week starts on the motorway and ends on a forestry track, the KO3 is designed to feel stable and controlled on sealed roads while still giving you the grip and durability you expect when the surface gets loose, rocky or muddy.
Why Kiwi Drivers Choose the KO3
New Zealand roads and tracks can change quickly. One day it is wet chip seal and standing water; the next it is corrugated gravel, sharp rock, clay, sand or a rutted access track. The KO3 is built to give you a confident balance of road manners, off-road traction and long-lasting toughness.
Built Tough for Real New Zealand Use
The KO3 features a stronger construction and updated compound designed to resist damage from stones, sharp rock and rough terrain. Reinforced shoulder protection helps defend the tyre in the places that matter most when you are driving off-road or carrying loads.
For ute and 4WD owners who tow, carry gear, travel on gravel roads or regularly head off the beaten track, that extra toughness means more confidence and fewer worries when conditions get rough.
Grip for Gravel, Dirt, Mud and Wet Roads
The KO3 uses an aggressive all-terrain tread pattern with deeper voids, interlocking tread blocks and strong shoulder detail to help bite into loose surfaces. That means dependable grip on gravel, dirt, mud and uneven tracks, while still delivering controlled handling for everyday driving.
It is a great fit for drivers who want a tyre that can get them to the bach, campsite, job site, boat ramp or back-country access road without giving up too much comfort on the drive home.
Longer-Lasting All-Terrain Performance
All-terrain tyres need to work hard, especially on utes and 4WDs that see a mix of sealed roads, gravel, loads and weekend travel. The KO3 has been developed with an updated compound and tread design to help resist chipping and tearing while encouraging more even wear over time.
For everyday drivers, that means a tyre that is not just tough on day one, but designed to keep performing through thousands of kilometres of mixed New Zealand driving.
Confidence in Changing Conditions
From wet highways to loose metal roads and dry summer trails, the KO3 is designed to give drivers a confident feel across a wide range of surfaces. It is made for the way many New Zealanders actually use their vehicles: school run one day, work site the next, and a mission out of town on the weekend.
If you want an all-terrain tyre that looks aggressive, works hard and still feels at home on the road, the KO3 is a strong choice.
Is the BFGoodrich KO3 Right for You?
The BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 is ideal for drivers who want more capability from their ute, 4WD or SUV without moving to a full mud-terrain tyre.
It is a great option for:
- Ute and 4WD owners who regularly drive on gravel, farm tracks or rough access roads
- Drivers who tow trailers, boats, caravans or work gear
- Tradies and rural drivers who need durability through the week
- Hunters, fishers, campers and weekend adventurers
- Overlanders and touring drivers looking for all-terrain confidence
- SUV owners who want a tougher look and more off-road ability
If your vehicle needs to work during the week and play on the weekend, the KO3 gives you the durability, grip and everyday usability that BFGoodrich all-terrain tyres are known for.
