Just got some 35x12.5 MT/R Kevlars
Did a lot of reading up on these tires, as well as the new KM2s. It was a hard choice, but the new MT/R seemed to be the better overall tire. My only concern is tread life, as nobody has had them very long yet.
I'm done wheeling for the year, so I won't know how they handle our trails until late spring. I'll need to get some gearing before then as well, it was hard enough on the clutch with the 33's when I got in the rocks. I'll post up how they handle the snowy roads once the snow starts flying though.

They were around $250 each when it was all said and done, so far I am very happy with them. Still not planning to wheel it again till next spring, there are a few major upgrades I want to take care of before hitting the trail again.

Now that we have had some more snow fall, and rain I have been able to see how the tires do in the winter. In deeper snow, they work great
On ice, I can still get around in 2wd, but not very quickly. So I have still needed 4wd on some roads.
Thanks
I have no idea who the lift is from, but its worthless offroad. I know it has a all pro hanger up front, no idea on the springs though. The rear has stock springs, 3 inch blocks, and lengthened stock shackles for a total of 4 inches in back.
I have a lightly used set of 3 inch springs for the front, and a set of 5" springs I want to modify to bring down to 3 or 4 inches. I have not installed them yet though, still building up my parts pile.
