Mud Graps? They're loud but they work GREAT.

Impossible to answer. If you spend $2000 on tires, you are probably going to love them. MY Mickey Thompson Baja MTZs are AWESOME. What I know is that they are fairly quiet and I have been in some pretty bad mud and they have worked great. I made it through mud/hills/rocks that others with lockers could not make it though with different tires.

I have 15k on mine and they have AT LEAST 70% tread left. I do a 5 tire rotation every 3k miles.

You are probably looking at KM's. KM2 does not come in 255/75R17. Welcome to the site, BTW

Default I have new MTZ's

33x12.5 great quiet ride. Lots of rubber. A co-worker runs same size KM2's gitting louder as they wear. Mine only have 1500 miles, too early to tell about wear. Just wondering those with MTZ's what psi are you all using?

I liked my 33's so much, when I moved up to 35's, I stuck with the Baja MTZ's.
