Default What Would SoCal Do?

I am ready to bite the bullet and get new wheels and tires (my wheels are do early Jan. now)

I have shopped around and the best price I have found was at a shop in Laguna Niguel.

Here is the sitch. I can pay $150 more for all 5 tires and get Toyos, or I can save the money and get KM2's.

What would you do?

Remember this is my D.D.

I would save the $150 and go with the BFG's! Of course I am a little biased since that's what I have, but that is what I chose to get. I bought the KM2's because they were a little cheaper and it seemed like most people had the Toyos and I wanted to have something a little different.

Flip a coin...


I have been in love with BFG for many years now, and love the KM. But both BFG & Toyo perform/look great!

I've always had really good luck with Bfg. So has my dad. But have heard allot of people like the Toyos that had Bfgs. I not think you can wrong with either one just get the size you want the first time. If you trying to decide between 33s & 35s. Go 35s. If it's 35s vs. 37s. Go 37s

If you read through the threads, you find most everyone wished they went bigger from the beginning. Me included.

I currently am running BFG 35's KM and am in the market to move up to 37's. Castor made the perfect point in what he stated... My only issue I ran into is my 16 x 8 rims, the 37's I am going with require 17 x 9's. My rims and tires are now gonna hit the for sale section.

Yeah, I started out wanting 33's. I am getting 35's. It's only money, right?

Just wait until you want 37's.

I have 35's with less than 1000 miles on them. I want 37's already

Cesar I'll take your 35's so you can have your 37's. I have 33's and trying to wear them out so I can get 35's.
