A little update, i sold the km2s for a pretty good price and bought a set of 16.5 double beadlocks and 37s.







Then made a nearly 40 hour trip out to koh to help a buddy on a pit crew.

How do you like those MT's? They absolutely suck on our issue Humvees. and they seem like they would be too stiff for a light truck like a toyota.

they arent anywhere near as bad as i expected When these eventually wear out ill be buying another set at 65 bucks each.

The only thing i dont like about them is the weight of the wheel and tire combo.
