Default Ordered BFG KM2s

Placed an order for 5 BFG KMs 285/75/16s last Wednesday. Got my forum discount and Discount Tire rebate, price match etc. But these tires must be in very high demand. First time I've ever had to wait for a restock of a store's inventory before my order can be shipped or have several tires shipped from several warehouses. Most tire orders I've received in a day or two. Hopefully next week these tires will arrive along with the leveling kit I ordered from Northridge4x4.....Can't Wait!!!!!

Those are a very tough tire. I have them in that size on my 97 ZJ. They are load range E and the side walls are a little stiff. I run them @14#s offroad and have seen them almost collapsed into the rim. Hardly any cuts on them in 2 years in the AZ mtns. My only complaint is that they are loud on the highway. It might be the load range, as a friend has 33X12.5R15s and his are quiet. I would have put them on my new JK if it weren't for the road noise. I went with MTRs w/kevlar. They have a stiff side wall as well (load range D). Hope they hold up to the rocks like the KM2s. Good Luck

I had to wait well over a month for my Goodyear Kevlars. I put my order in just after "Goodyear finished a production run" and missed out so I had to wait for them to "make another run". Crazy talk I tell you.

Default KM 2"s from Discount Tire

I also ordered KM 2"s from Discount Tire. But mine are 35x12.50-15's. I also went with the MB 72 wheels. DT said they had to go to several different places to get them, but would have them in a week. My lift is scheduled for 6/30. Tires will go on soon after.
