NEW BFG MT KM2's!!!

Hmmm ... post lift I was thinking 33" BFG AT's for roadability and wear. But after seeing the new MT KM2 modelled after the Krawler I think this is the better bet! Seems more suited to better treadwear and less noise by looking at the tread. Larger contact patches and less spacing between lugs. Good looking tire!

I think most of it is opinion though. I am looking forward to seeing these tires in person.

Re: NEW BFG MT KM2's!!!

Ditto ... the proof is in the real world testing and not someone's perception of how the tread "looks" like it will perform.

I have tried almost every offroad tire out there on my Jeeps and for a daily driver, BFG AT's HANDS DOWN! For off-road only, TSL's baby! This seems a nice step up for us DD'er wheelers if their claims of quieter smoother ride than current MT's holds true.

And then of course I need them to make a 285/75R16 to fot the TRD!

Lack of 16s killed it for me.
