Default best dilema EVER ??????

so i just got a set of 35 km2 - so excited, but the thing is that my stock rubi 32 still have a fair bit of tread on them , they have done over 40000 miles so they are worm enough to justify the swap - but to get to the point should i install the 35's now or ride on my 32's till they are bare bone as im not gonna get a chance to wheel for at least 2 weeks - how fast will the km2 last?

......this is one of the best decisions i have ever been faced with

His sig says he's got a 2.5inch teraflex coil lift. 35's will fit no problem Just make sure he cuts the pinch seams if he's gonna flex it all the way out.

And regarding the pinch seam...it's the back point to trim off. We did it when we got our 35s installed.
ok please bear with my incompetence here - am i trimming the tire or a piece of the jeep?
