Current tire kuhmo road venture MT 315 75r16 on rebel racing 16x8 rim

Ok I'm looking at km2 but I read they run small how much smaller than my tires I have now they are 34.3 ish on the rig. Should I go with 345 75r16 in the Km2? There winder I know it will fit the rim but could be a issue. Any suggestion to a true close to 35 for me. Looking at pit bull too. And pics would be great so I can see thanks.

You'll be fine with those gears and 35s I'm running d30 front now and 37s (km2) and will building a d44 but we will be at Johnson valley and several other NASTY spots that break stuff just for thinking about Running it....

I ran a d30 built on my 4 door and hammered it pretty hard no issues...

Just stay smart on the skinny pedal......

Thanks, for the info well what is closer to the 35 the 345 or 315, according to charts 315 = 35 but what I've read it's 33.5 at best. 345=37 but may be 35.5 ish I don't want to rub my control arms At flex and turn.

Someone has to have some more insight on this.


What is a good tire that's a true 35 in a 315 75r16? MTR?

While I be good with a 345 75r16 in a km2 is this closer to a 35 on a 16x8 or 16x8.5

Please help don't want to wast money on tires that won't fit

Grab what you want, go a size bigger and trim a smidge...

I trim pinchweld and fenders, and run 37s so with 2-3 " lift you shouldn't have issues ...if you rub on steering grab wheelspacers PR wheels with more back spacing or put steering stops out...

I love my GY MTR/K. Closer to a true 35".

I don't think I've read many things about the BFG. They're very popular, but every time there's a flat on the trail, it's always the BFG MT.

One of my friends just switched from the BFG to the MTR. Said the MTR is much smoother on the street and not as loud.
