Re: BFG KOs or KMs
I live in Montreal where there is a long winter. I use the BFG 33 Mud
km in the summer but in the winter switch to the BFG AT since they are
syped and the tread is better for snow and ice.
http://www.bfgoodrichtires.com has the specs. In winter driving the
Muds are rated at 6 while the AT are a 9 out of 10(best).
I have seen people offroad with them. I would get the ATs and if you
get into offroading get the muds but get a lift and put on 33s! The
ATs will provide better roadhandling and will not wear out as fast as
the mud tires.

Re: BFG KOs or KMs
I use 31x10.5 MT/KMs on Canyon rims in spring, summer, and fall in New
Hampshire. 98 TJ Sport. As with most MT type tires they are good on the
trails but a little harsh on the road. They do ride better than a lot of
other MTs.
I use 235/75-15 AT/KOs on stock steel rims in the winter. They handle
better on wet and icy roads. The MT/KMs may do better in deep snow but I
haven't had an opportunity to test them yet.
The AT/KOs suck in the mud though. They clog up and turn into slicks.
