GY MTR/k 35x12.5r17 vs 315/70r17
 
So I was thinking of getting MTR/ks for my incoming 2014 JKU (auto/3.73). Still undecided because of people complaining about balancing.

But any rate, the 35s are c load (like 2400lbs) and the 315s are D (3200 ish). I figured that Cs are fine. The tires are 3-4 lbs lightr, 1/2 narrower...all good. But I think the 4 dr "new" Jeeps must weigh more a bunch more than than the old CJs I am used to.

Folks on here claim un-happiness with the C rated tires. Can any1 chime in with experience. It would be stock springs (17/59s presumably based on similar jeeps on the lot) with TF 2.5 BB and likely either Rancho 7000s or 9000 (havent decided there either)

If there isn't much help, I reckon I will go with KM2 which I have ran on my Duramax...so its not a total unknown
