BFGoodrich's KO3 All-Terrain is listed for the 2018–2026 JL — here's what that covers

If you run a JL built between 2018 and 2026, the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 is listed as a fit for your machine. That is the whole of the compatibility I can confirm: the KO3, in the tire category, against the JL across those model years. The KO3 is not listed against any other platform on the sheet I have — not a JK, not a Gladiator — so I am not going to tell you it bolts up to one. If you are on an earlier Wrangler, treat this brief as information about a tire you cannot yet assume fits.

The KO3 is BFGoodrich's current all-terrain, the line that sits between a highway tire and a dedicated mud terrain. On a JL that is usually the tire people want for a rig that still commutes, still sees wet pavement, and then leaves it for gravel, rock, and the occasional two-track. An all-terrain is the compromise tire by design: it gives up some of the open-tread bite of a mud terrain to stay quieter and more predictable on the road, and it gives up some pavement manners to claw at loose surfaces. Whether that trade is the right one depends on where your JL actually spends its miles.

A word on what I will not hand you. I am not going to quote a tire pressure for this tire on your JL, and you should be wary of anyone online who does. Inflation is set against your Jeep's placard and the load you are carrying, not against a tire's name, and the figure that matters for your vehicle lives on the door jamb and in the owner's manual. The same goes for any load rating: read it off the tire and the manual, do not take it from a brief like this one. Guessing a pressure or a load figure is how you end up with a tire run outside what it was built for — and on a vehicle, that is a failure you feel at speed.

Before you buy, confirm two things against your own machine and the retailer's size listing: that the size you are ordering clears your JL's suspension and any lift or fender work you have done, and that the model year on your title falls inside 2018–2026. Fitment on a list is a starting point, not a guarantee that a given diameter clears your particular setup.

If your JL is in that window and you want a do-everything tire that still behaves on the road, the KO3 is now one to put on the short list. If your Wrangler is older, wait for a listing that names it.
