Wow, talk about a resurrection.
Do a quick search on these...there are several members that are running these now.

I would go with the KM2's.

Thanks Fink, I was doin my research before opening a new thread :p and found this...

I like alot the KM2's, the only problem I am concerned about is teh handling on wet roads... heared that they are a little bad on wet surfaces, the rest, they are unstoppable

The kumho's are a little bit the opposite, good on wet I heared, but lack of mileage due to their soft compund...

As a whole, I think the cooper stt are a good allrounder...

So I'm back to square one...lol

Have you looked into the Mickey Thompson MTZ's?
I've had two sets and I love them.

I have them on my Tacoma now and they are amazing - we had two ice storms back to back and even on the ice and slush they did great.

I'd check them out before making a decision.

Unless you're into the mall crawling scene, these suck. They look pretty, but don't clean unless you're bouncing off the rev limiter, and have weak sidewalls. If you want something that looks good, rides decent, and will get you around on easy trails, they're fine.

My first set of kumho's was the original Kumho MT's, before they changed them to these. The old ones rocked. Rode great, not as noisy as many other MT's, and dug like hell. I wouldn't touch another set of the new kumho's. You can get better for the money... Buckshots cost about the same or less and are way better off road, about the same on road, and wear waaaaaaaaay better (buckshots last a long time).
