What owners say

No road-test results yet, so every score here comes from owner reviews found online.

How scores work
Relative score
0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
Road tests
0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
Owner reviews
0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

What owners like and dislike

Themes extracted from 44 owner reviews found online.

The BFGoodrich Mud Terrain TA KM2 generally earns high praise from users for its aggressive styling, exceptional off-road traction in mud and dirt, and surprisingly manageable on-road manners for a mud-terrain tire. While most reviewers note a pleasant ride quality and better-than-expected quietness initially, a few users report a noticeable tire hum developing over time and varying performance on wet surfaces.

Pros

  • Aggressive and appealing visual aesthetic with iconic sidewall design
  • Exceptional off-road traction in mud, gravel, sand, and snow
  • Surprisingly low road noise for a mud-terrain tire, especially when new
  • Good on-road stability, handling, and ride comfort
  • Durable construction with impressive tread life reported by heavy-duty users

Cons

  • Develops a louder highway hum or 'whine' as mileage increases
  • Can experience reduced traction or oversteer on wet pavement for some drivers
  • Occasional tendency to spin on loose dry rock rather than bite
  • Actual measured tire dimensions may occasionally run slightly smaller than stated sizing

Worth knowing

  • Heavy-duty and utility vehicles like Land Rover Defenders and farm trucks reported exceptional longevity, with some sets lasting up to 85,000 to 95,000 miles even while towing heavy payloads.
  • Users installing larger sizes (such as 33-inch and 35-inch setups on Jeeps and 4x4 trucks) praised the enhanced ground clearance and smooth highway transitions after proper balancing.
