BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 lands for 2018–2026 JL

If you run a JL from the 2018 through 2026 model years, the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 is now listed as a fitting tire. That is the compatibility we can confirm. If your rig is anything other than a JL in that model-year window, do not assume this carries over — fitment is specific, and the data in front of us covers the JL and nothing else.

The KO3 is an all-terrain, which tells you what it is built to do: split the difference between highway manners and broken ground. If your weekends are gravel, forest road, and the occasional rock garden, with a commute in between, this is the category you shop. If you are chasing deep mud or dunes, an all-terrain is the wrong tool and you should be looking at a mud-terrain or a paddle instead.

A few things to settle before you buy, because they decide whether the tire works on your truck and not just on paper.

First, size and clearance. "Fits the JL" means the model and years line up. It does not mean every size in the KO3 range clears your fenders at full stuff and full lock, especially if you are running a lift or a different wheel offset. Measure your current setup, check your up-travel, and confirm the specific size you want against your actual truck before ordering.

Second, inflation and load. We will not print a tire pressure or a load rating here, and you should be wary of anyone who throws one at you for your truck without knowing your axle weights and the exact size. Those numbers belong to the tire's load table and your JL's door-jamb placard and owner's manual. Running the wrong pressure for the load ruins the ride, chews the tread, and in the worst case overheats the carcass. Get the figures from the manufacturer's data and your vehicle's documentation, not from a forum guess.

Third, the rest of the corner. New tires often arrive alongside a wheel change. For the JL, the fitment data we have also lists the Method Race Wheels 305 NV wheel for 2018–2026, so there is a matching wheel option on record if you are building the whole corner at once.

Mount and balance at a shop that can handle an off-road tire, retorque your lug nuts after the first short drive per your service manual, and inspect for rub at full articulation before you point it at anything serious. The KO3 is a sensible all-terrain choice for the JL — just size it to your actual truck, not to the brochure.
