No bfg ko2 in 15" sizes!!!!!

WTH is up with bf Goodrich coming out with there new all terrain K02 and not offering it in any 15" sizes especially the one I need and super common 33x12.5x15 ???? I was so disappointed I emailed bfg and this is what they had to say ( maybe if enough people start asking for them they'll do it !)

Funny that they make the KM2's in a 31x10.5x15 but not a 33. That's kinda dumb. Going to check if they have a metric size that's close

these pro comps might be a decent alternative, to me they are kind of a hybrid at/mt, if they had been out when i was looking for tires i would have got them

The original bfg a/t looks to be the all time top dog.

My buddy just got the procomps in a 37 and they are so much more loud than his last pair of KM2's that were 38's. Just FYI

This thread is about the new KO2 tires. I hope you meant KO2 instead of KM2 because I really want the new KO2's in a 33x10.50 size.

So I sent an email to BFG asking if the KO2 would be produced in the 33x10.50x15 size.
The reply I got said that they are planning to put that size into production but they were not able to give a date when that would happen, so I guess there is still hope.
I also told them that there are millions of us out there with older vehicles running 15 inch tires and not to forget about us.
I suggest that everyone else that wants these tires to be produced in 15 inch sizes email them as well and let them know.

John

kick ass! They must have recently made those plans. I emailed them last year when they dropped the press release about sizes and got told they were not going to make 15s at all. Then in oct. I asked a bfg rep at the so cal offroad expo and he said that 15s were pretty much a dead wheel size and not a popular size that sold anymore. I told him to tell the bean counters to check the figures again and that not everyone wants to run 17'' or bigger wheels in the dirt.
