Getting ready to order tires?
I am getting ready to buy my first NEW set of tires. I have had lots of used mud tires and at's but this is the first set I am buying new. I just did a 4" bracket lift and have bj spacers. So I can clear 35's and I plan to regear. I was looking at the KM2's because costco has them for $207 a tire plus a $70 off coupon.($830 installed OTD) What do you guys think of the km2's vs like a tsl or thornbird super swamper? I do a lot of everything except rock crawling. So mud, trails and river crossings. I might also go with another set of 33 12.50s just cant really decide for sure yet....... I currently have wildcountry mt's and they have lasted a long time(30k) they are good but not great. This is on a daily driver but only goes 10 miles a day to work, then camping trips once a month and wheeling every weekend!

I've heard nothing but good about the KM2. Some of the guys I wheel with have them and really love them. TLS's are a decent tire too, but if you're looking for a streetable Swamper, consider the SSR's or Trxus M/T. Please avoid the Stuckbirds alltogether.
I'm looking at the SSR's pretty hard myself, as well as the new GY MTR with Kevlar. Good luck!

x2 on staying away from chicken mudders. tsl's are better in the mud than bfg's. but bfg's ride better and will last a lil longer than swamper's will. id go with that costco deal!
