Default BFG km2s, Pro Comp Extreme MTs or MTZ Radials

I am looking at these three MTs. Will spend most of their life on the road, however, want the capability to do some weekend wheeling. Going with a 3" lift and 35s. Better treadwear, noise, price? Anyother suggestions? Thanks.

I have heard great things about the KM2's

If those where my three choices I would personally go with the KM2's

I have pro comps on my jeep and km2's on the FJC. Both were put on about 3,000 miles ago. Both see offroad use. I would go with the km2's. They both are great offroad and have pretty good on road manners but the pro comps have been wearing faster.

I love my MTZ's and will probably go with them again when needed. My friend is getting his KM2's on this weekend, would be able to give an opinion on those in another week. I went wheelin last night with a guy who had super swamper tsl's that had about 20% tread left and went everywhere I did. These Jeeps will go everywhere, I think it's just a matter of how much noise you can handle and what tread pattern you like.

mtz's or km2's. they are both good on the dirt. mtz's might be a little better in mud. km2's have the edge on rocks. i think the km2's are a little quieter on-road and have better wet weather and snow/ice traction.
the km2's haven't really been around long enough to comment on their life span/wear rate, but they are a little softer than the previous km's, so i would guess they wear similar to the mtz's.
