Default Need something similar to KM2!

Whats a good Mud Terrain style tire that runs truer to size and is as expensive as a KM2? or What are some similar tires that compete against the KM2? I know people say toyo is awesome but I can't afford that expensive of a tire and I heard they are on the heavy side.
I have BFG KM's and I like them so far but I guess they don't have them in 35.

I don't really rock crawl just hit up some easy trails with light crawling, and the JK is a DD

go for cooper stt's. They perform similarly to BFGs but they have the added benefit of being cheaper and lighter.

The mickeys looks nice too, I guess I'm between the Mickeys and BFGs, the pitbulls are bad ass but are pricey

The Goodyear MT/R. These are a discontinued tire replaced with the MT/R Kevlar.
