Nissan Xterra Tire Review Highlights

Writing about the BFGoodrich All Terrain TA KO2 given 83% (265-75-16-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 50 spirited miles
I have had several sets of these tires over the last 20 years plus. I have used them in every condition from mountains, slickrock, sand, mud and desert terrain. They have been tough and dependable. Several things impress me like the smooth powerful traction the provided in rocky terrain and sidewall durability. They provide great traction in snowy and wet conditions. Ice and clay type muds are about what you would expect. I have purchased over 6 sets of the tires over the years and have yet to be disappointed by them. My only problem has been tread wear which is mostly a function of the terrain I drive in like lava rocks, sand and sharp limestone. What I find amazing about this tire is the smooth ride once I return to the pavement. It's like riding on a cloud with a little more noise. I have to say BF Goodrich has made many improvements over the years in this tire. I am getting ready to purchase another set of these tires but have also been looking at the Mud Terrain TA KM3 but will probably stick with th All Terrain KO2.

Driving on mostly town for 200 spirited miles
Just bought these in the Mid East for a Nissan Xterra Off-Road. Was looking for something more off-road oriented but they hardly ever have this size in stock here. Since rain was forecast for the first time in the year and the wife and kid were using this car I pulled the trigger and bought these. Previous tires were downright dangerous on wet, genuinely like driving on slush at best. (Dunlop Grandtrek AT22). Comfort is okay, its somewhat better than previously but with this size sidewall and being a soft sidewall I was expecting more comfort. Noise levels seem to be a bit higher actually. Grip levels are massively increased though. The rain didn't show up so haven't tried that yet, but on dry roads now, I haven't found the limit yet as I'm now rather concerned about accidentally rolling the car since the car isn't losing its grip when it formerly would but instead has a massive amount of body roll (it's a tall 4x4). I'm sure I'll get the courage eventually.. Previously though I'd be dramatically squealing around with loads of understeer and no worries about rolling the car. Also no longer able to spin the rear tires from a standing start. Previously that would happen anytime I applied full throttle. Both with and without holding the brakes. Looking forward to the expected improvements in the wet, that was the main purpose of the purchase of these tires anyway. No off-road experience yet, will update when I've tried in the soft sand. Worried about the soft sidewalls though with low pressures, both for a puncture or the tire slipping off the rim. Will post a new review when I've had more time to thoroughly test them.

Great mud tires. This tire is amazing for the price, only $113 in UAE.

Driving on a combination of roads for 25 spirited miles
I had two sets of these in an XTerra, first in 15" and then in 16" rims. 40.000 km total, 20k each, no visible wear. I'd would put 10 overall since I had no problems at all with them. I live in Costa Rica and our roads are a shame, full of pot holes, so our tires must be able to stand real abuse. I am looking to buy a new set of the same for my actual car, a mitsubishi nativa/sport/challenger/whatever)
