BFG Rugged Trails, how long did yours last?

Similar to how mine look except mine have developed a lot of cracks in the treads.

 

For those with K02s, how are they wearing and how's the mileage and road noise?

I rarely go off-road, and never anything serious, just occasionally some old trails, farm fields, etc. On my last Tacoma I always just had all-seasons. After the original Dunlops I always had General Grabbers.

 

37,000 on mine and they were down to the wear indicators. Uniform wear with good alignment. 37K seems premature, especially since I never towed or off-roaded with them.

I would have kept them another 6 months, but I didn't want to go into winter with them.

 

8k. I freaked out and replaced them after reading too many TW horror stories.

Dynapro ATms now for me. 41k with 7/32" of tread left.

 

Shortly after I purchased the truck, probably around 20k because they were dry rotted and performed poorly off road

 

Dumped them at 45k on my 2009 Prerunner Off-Road. Lousy in the sand for sure. Last 15k they got hard as a rock and got so noisy nobody would ride with me. Now running Michilen's and only noise I hear in the truck is wind noise and the wifey.

 

I don't know if they change the composition between load ranges or just layers; but I ran 265/75R16 load range E on my Chevy K1500 4x4 for 45,000 then sold the truck. I LOVED these tires.

 

Mine were dangerous during the very first winter I owned my truck. I had the dreaded ABS brake slide while doing a normal slow speed stop. Fuck those tires! I should have burned them instead of recycling them.

I used them for 2.5 years...but only 2 winters; only the first year had a real winter. Towards the end...while I still had maybe 4 32nds remaining, I had the bed waggling in the rain with just light acceptable acceleration from a stop. Worst tires ever.

I suspect that Toyota temperature conditions those fucking tires to harden them up while new just to eek out that extra 0.5 mpg.

 

Got about 35k miles on mine when they hit the 3/32" mark.

 

21,500. I don't mind them at all. Might as well get every mile out of them.

 

I had 80K on them when they were replaced. Most of those miles were on pavement. They did fine in the rain. I think they were in the snow once and they were horrible, slid a bunch on fresh snow and un-plowed roads. Did OK on the plowed roads as we were driving south.

 

45K and they had lots of small cracks in the rubber. just replaced them with BFG KO2 on sale for July 4th holiday, same size.

 

I replaced mine at 22,000. They had tread life left but the cracks in them were to scary for me to continue driving with them.

 

Mine have a lot of cracks in them too, on the inside of the treads.

 

My 2012 had them. I got maybe 20,000 and replaced them with BFG TAKO's which is what I always use on my Tacomas. I just removed the Goodyear Wranglers on my 2017 and put on the TAKOs that last at least 60,000. Usually they get "timed out" and so old and hard as rocks that they have to be replaced.

 

How do those BFG KO2s do on the road? How's the ride, road noise, wear, etc..? My truck mainly just sees road use with occasional farm fields, things like that. I'll probably just go with all-seasons.

 

I sold mine with 40k on them... upgraded to K02's

 

87,000 on mine, but just ordered some Dick Cepek Fun Country. Could probably get another 5k out of these as they are still not to the cords.

 

29500 on mine with about half of the tread left. Since we don't have snow and extremely rare ice, I will probably run them to the wear bars.

Will likely replace with Cooper AT3s although I am a big fan of Michelin tires but not aware if they have all terrain treads. Maybe LTX MS2 would be ok.

 

Switched mine out at 36,000 miles. They didn't have much tread left and winter was on it's way.
I bought Michelins Defenders. Great tires.
