JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

...i pulled the trigger on KM2's instead of Duratrac's...i'm sure that the Duratrac's would hold up better on the ice/packed snow but i really wanted a true 33" tire and i really like the looks...as far as off-road goes, we will see...hope i didn't just blow a grand!

Hey, you get what you want. If you don't like Duratracs, don't get 'em. I personally love the looks of the KM2s and hate the look of Duratracs. I'd do the same as you.

Hey, I drive in Winter way longer than you and I'd take the KM2's over Duratrac's. Although to be fair it is a tough decision, they're both good tires

I have the KM2s and I love them. Much like you I debated for weeks on which tires to buy. Our Winters are not bad at all in Mississippi, so I didn't have that to worry about. With that having been said they are great tires and I don't think you will be disappointed.

Nothing wrong with that. I saw more people at Rocktoberfest running KM2s than I could even try to keep track of, myself included. Great tires, you'll love them! You're only regret months from now will be going with 33s instead of 35s

So you wanted a true 33? Then you bought a 35" km2 right? Lol!

I'm glad you're happy with your purchase.

Tire Rack states 285/70R-17 measures 33" on an 8.5" wheel, stock wheels are 7.5", so I'm thinking I will be 33"+...maybe...advice, if I'm missing something let me know, I'm a newbie!
