even with the high demand for the MRT kevlars, I'm just gonna wait it out and get ehat I want instead of setteling for the KM2's... It seems like I usually wait for all of the stuff that I want for my Jeep...

Well you can get the MTR Kevlars now.... just not the KM2s. www.onlinetires.com has the MTRs availible for 35s. Thats where I'm probably going to get mine. $1,050 shipped to GA... they're a CA based company so shipping would probably be cheaper if you're in the west.

GoodYear Wrangler DuraTrac
GoodYear Wrangler DuraTrac's are the best I've ever had -- awesome on and off road tire. Real knobby for AT's and great on road ride.

I've read really good things about the Kevlar MTRs. However I've owned about 4 sets of goodyear tires in the last 5 years (different cars, etc) and I've grown to hate Goodyear. Their ride tends to be rougher, they don't balance worth a damn after 5000 miles, and their traction is great at first and then turns into pure shit. This is from a wide variety of their tires across different vehicles. That being said, although the Kevlars got some great reviews I decided to stay away from them.
I have the KM2s. They don't run that small- I have 37s that measure out to be approx 36.8 inches. They're very smooth on the road, very quiet for a MTR. My Nitto Terra Grapplers on my HD truck is about the same in noise. I've only had the KM2s for about 500 miles but so far I love it. I can't get over how well they ride for a MT and how smooth and quiet they are. You wouldnt know they were MTs from the drive. That's also running at 35 psi which I can tell by the chalk test is a little on the higher side. I expect the ride to be even better when I drop it to about 28.
