hahaha hmmm.... If you got 5 with good thread left and willing to ship ( on my dime obviously) shoot me a pm! What sucks for me is that Toyos aren't offered by Discount Tire and everybody locally is just too damn overpriced.

Any thoughts on the Kumho MT KL71? The price seems right. At the moment it is between the Duratracs, KM2s and Kumho MTs!

I have the Duratracs and love them. What size are you looking at?

I saw the Falken Wildpeak A/T at their booth at the Easter Jeep Safari. Didn't look that aggressive but they do have a 50k mileage warranty on sizes up to about 33s.

canadian winters call for Duratracs. the KM2's have ZERO siping, meaning crap performance in snow and ice. The siping in the Duratracs rivals most winter tires. I had them on my JK and they performed great this winter.

I'm currently looking at either a 285/70/17 OR a 315/70/17. I would really like to run the 315 one but will I be able to run it on a 17 X 9 wheel? ( Procomp 7005 ).

Yes, you would be able to run the 315 on the 17x9 wheel with no issues.
