The latest iteration of the legendary BFGoodrich Baja T/A the KR3 takes steering response and transitional handling to the next level for unlimited class desert racing vehicles. Using the race wining Baja T/A KR2 as the foundation the KR3 evolves into a 40×12.5R17 radial race tire with tough sidewalls and an aggressive tread pattern to take all the desert can throw at it.
Tested in the 2015 Baja 1000 and early season 2016 desert races the 40″ KR3 is designed for current generation unlimited 2wd or AWD SCORE Trophy Trucks®, Trophy Truck Spec, and Class 1 vehicles competing in SCORE, BITD, and elsewhere.
