Michelin Agilis CrossClimate vs BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 — Compared

“I fitted these to our 680 Michelin Agilis Crossclimate 235/60 R17C 117/115R 8PR, 3PMSF And they work well, better off tarmac (Grassy muddy farm track) than the factory tyres and felt better in heavy rain. I can’t recall if ride quality changed tho.”

“Costco tire employee here- It can be hard to estimate tire life w/out warranty info. Most members see about 60k miles on the agilis crossclimate and 75k on the defender ltx. The agilis is the better tire for heavy loading but you have to balance that against how fast you'll wear them out. Both are great tires though”

“I bought a set of Agilis for my 2017 F250 King Ranch two years ago. I live in Colorado and I was attracted to the idea that they could possibly be left on year round and not have to swap between summer and winter tires. I have swapped between summer and winter tires for the past 25 years here in Colorado and I have tried tires that were supposedly "ALL SEASON" but they were always a compromise, not great in the summer and as a highway tire and not great in the winter as a snow or ice tire. The Agilis has been the only tire that has great summer performance, quiet and nice handling and also it has been hard to believe, but they act pretty close to Blizzaks I've had in the past for winter driving. I have 25,000 miles on them and they are wearing very well, and have not become noisy. I'm surprised there are not more accolades on these tires. They came out on top vs several other all season tires.”

“Yes, totally fine to run them on the stock 5.5" wide wheels, no rubbing and they're a good option for an upgrade while minimising drawbacks. I ran exactly that size KO2 for ~50,000 km, ended up selling them onto someone else and swapped to different wheels and tyres just for something different.”

“I drove to the Deadhorse, Alaska (as far north as you can drive in America). The Dalton highway is a notorious 400 mile gravel road start just north of Fairbanks. Lots of people bring 2 spares. I had 0 flats. KO2 eat snow and sand for breakfast. They definitely improve my Q5 and allow me to hang with proper off-roaders (at least for a little while)”

“I run Hakkapeliittas in the winter (UP of Michigan, 300"+ of snow per year) but I ran my KO2s last winter and they performed surprisingly well. They do struggle in ice and burnished snowpack, especially under 15F in my experience and since they have no siping they don't clear as well as snow tires. If it's KO2s vs. All Seasons I'd go with the KO2s, just know they still don't beat proper snow tires.”
