I hope I made the right choice, I know I've pretty much asked about every other tire that I was looking at so far (except these). I'm expecting them in on thursday so hopefully I can get pictures up by then. BTW i think im goin

They ride extremely well on the street and did very well for me in the mud in 33x12.50R15 on my old Cherokee.
The only thing that stopped me from getting a set for the JK was the weak sidewall....popped it my frist time out with them...a week old....

But then when I got the wheels and tires on my Jeep, just looking at the jeep as they pulled it out of the shop made it all worth it. And the drive home from the shop was too cool.

What are everyone's feelings about the Procomp MTs vs the BFG KM2s. I am in the same boat. The Procomps are several hundred less, but at that price, what is a couple hundred?!
