Default bfg km2's question

I was wondering how the km2's handle in the snow/ice as I see they don't have the severe snow rating. BFG doesn't list a mileage warranty on them either, so what's realistic out of an MT like this if it's going to see a healthy amount of pavement time?
Thanks,

Clay

My km2's did awsoem in the snow, I was very surprised, they did much better then my stock rubi tires, great on stopping without any slide at all. Not sure about the mileage. I have about 6k on them now and they look great

thanks. that's my big hang up with buying a set. We used to just deal with snow in the winter in central IL, but with us moving closer to St Louis, all they get is lots of ice and a little snow. What I've been reading about the MT in snow or wet hasn't been that great. As expensive as they are I don't want to be replacing a set within the next 30,000 or anything like that either. I still can't decide on AT vs MT, but I'm not planning on buying until fall so I've got more time to agonise.

I was told around 40,000k + if you keep them properly balanced and rotated.

Good deal I was hoping for 50,000 but I guess as aggressive as they are that's expecting a lot.
