I am going to order new 37" tires this week, but unsure of which to go with. I have always been a BFG guy, but since this is my first jeep, just wondering what you all are running & looking for some recommendations. I'm taking off some 35" BFG Mud terrain KM's (KM1 not KM2)...

Suggestions????

Thanks!

 

I run 37" Mickey Thompson MTZ's and love em. They have good onroad manners and aren't loud. They really shine offroad in mud and snow and self clean well. They have never let me down where others have got stuck. I got about 15000kms on them and they are wearing very well.

 

Thanks for the response! I will look into those!

& your JK looks awesome!

 

X2 on the 37" MTZ's. I freekin' love mine.

 

bump for buddy

 

Do you not want KM2s? I picked them because it is an aggressive tread with out going over the top. After buying them I was surprised with the extremely low level of road noise. I am not about to buy large tires for a jeep with a tight tread pattern you need some lugs for grip.

 

I say KM2s and call it a day. I've run them for about 14,000 miles now, with a lot of time off road as well and they are one of the best mud tires I have ever run. The squat in the tires is perfect for grip when aired down to about 12-16 psi. On the street, at 30 psi they are perfect. They wear very evenly, and as said before they are actually kind of quiet for an MT. They've developed more noise over time and now are definitely noticeable, but its nothing bad, nothing like swampers or something like that.

I was a bit skeptical of the KM2s when they came out. And after seeing the tons and tons of people running them, I had wanted something different, but I am glad I chose them. They've held up great and you really can't beat their all around performance. Only thing is the true size of KM2s is often smaller than as advertised, by about an inch. but you can't go wrong

 

like you, i used to be a BFG guy forever but. they look great, are quite on the highway and for the most part, do the job well. however, after cutting through so many sidewalls here on the trails we have out in socal, i started to look for a tougher tire. after trying a myriad of tires, i finally settled with toyo mt's. they may not last as long as BFG's but, they still are very quite, perform way better on the rocks we have out here and have sidewalls that are just about bullet proof. in fact, since running toyos, i have NOT had a single sidewall failer to date nor do i know of a single person who has.

 

Im very please with my KM2's on road. I have not had them off road yet so I have no feedback

 

I have KM2s, but if had to buy new tires right now, i would get Goodyear MTRs if i could find them.
