I'm running stock tires on our JK but on my CJ7 which I drive about a thousand miles a year I run Super Swamper TSL 33 x 12.50. I love these tires-a little noisy- but will climb anything.

I am going to try the Dunlop Mud Rovers. The price is reasonable and the tread design looks decent. I mostly run in mud so I'll report back.

GoodYear Wrangler MT (35x12.5R15), I like it.
This is not the best but good enough for rock crawling and onload riding too.

MTZ doesn't grap rock and too much slippy.
BF is normal one nothing special, I think.

yeah for me it all boiled down to rim size and price. I have 17 x 8 steels and BFG recommends 8.5. Allthough many run theres on 7.5 i chose to stick with manufactures rec. so i went with the Pro Comps becasue the 35 x 12.5 are rec. at 8 inches width. Also i thought the price was great considering the KM2 was $70 more a piece for the tire. So basicly i got 5 for the price of 4 KM2's. And i also really liek the tread pattern of the Pro Comps not mention the come Siped.

None of those... I just ordered a set of Cooper STTs. My next choice would have been Goodyear MT/Rs, but the Coopers ended up being a little cheaper.

Well I love the look of the Mickey Thompson Baja Claws but I was just wanting to hear a lot of different views.The poll is on the tires I like.
