Ok ladies and gents .... I'm getting new tires 35/12.50/17 but can't decide what ones I would like ... It's a 50/50 On and off road n I don't care about sound keep that in mind .... So what's the best for your buck, has good life, cleans itself well and is good all around, oh ya the closest to a true 35 ... The choices are

Nitto mud grappler
Nitto trail grappler
Bfg m/t km2
Good year m/t

Anything else not here that might be good n no I don't want super swampers lol thanks guys and gals

 

I have the km2s and like them. They measure 34.5" loaded and aren't too loud. They do have a slight wobble when coming to a stop but since these are my first MTs I don't know if they all do that.

 

From that list, I would go with the trail grapplers.

 

I agree on the TG's. You didn't mention what type if trails you run.

 

I would go trail grapplers also. As to the previous post with your km2 running 34.5 loaded are yours 37's cause every 35" km2 I've had or heard of runs about 33-33.5

 

if by goodyear m/t you mean mtr kevlar i would choose them...

 

I'm outside the norm for the group- mickey thompson claws. I ran mine for 36k miles and they grab like stink and won't let go. Many folks are on the trail grap and toyo mt bandwagon but there are a couple different brands you could play with that are a little cheaper that should yield similar results. Kanati mud hogs and treadwright guard dogs are two that come to mind that could serve you well.

 

Cooper SST MT

 

go with the Trail Grapplers! you won't regret it! Aggressive look, excellent offroad tire with great road manners. Quiet too! my only complaint (which really shouldn't be a complaint) is that they are taking forever to wear down! I've been running the tire for about 18months and they still look new...I'm ready for 37s!

 

Running 35inch MTRs with Kevlar and I love them. Although one is out of balance. Also I have ran Fierce attitude mts on 3 different rigs and got 60k miles out of the set that was on my 3/4 to Chevy
