Which tire would you chose? This is my DD and I'd like to have the smoothest ride possible! Thanks!

I vote the Toyos. They make a great tire.

I run 37" Toyo tires on my DD and real like them. They are smooth at 26-28psi and are wearing evenly. Toyos are my vote

as everyone knows, i am a HUGE toyo fan but, if "smoothest ride possible" is paramount and, if you don't play on the rocks, i'd have to go with a the km2. the sidewalls on the km2 are a lot thinner and they do provide a smoother softer ride.

Have had them both on my 2007 and liked them both. The Toyo's seemed better in the rain and snow due to the small amount of siping. Both worked great offroad. I am putting Toyo's on my new 2012. I felt the winter driving advantage of the Toyo made my decision to go with them.

I ran the KM2's for 10k miles and never really liked them, ended up replacing with MTR/K's. However, after just finishing the 1000 mile JKX last week and wheeling with three JK's running the Toyos (WOL, Trailbud, Powerline Patrol) I am a firm believer that tire is one of, if not the best all around, badass tire.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but you said If you dont play on the rocks go with the km2? Can you explain?
