Arrow What Yall Think.....

Ok here's the deal my stock tires are worn out and it's time for new ones so im thinking of ordering the Kuhmo AT KL78 http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....1=yes&place=57 now i was wondering if anybody had ever used these tires and what they thought about there performance.....Also if anybody has any pics of them on there Jeep that would be great as well thanks in advance......

Bridgestone Dueler A/T's (695's or REVOs) or Dayton Timberline A/T's are my vote. I run 30's on stock susp. so unless you are sagging they shouldn't rub.

What is treadwright's reputation? They seem considerably cheaper than Bfg's or similar tires. I've never heard of them before does anyone run them and if so what are your thoughts on their all-terrain capabilities? (Are they decent off road while still being a fairly quite well-wearing street tire for a DD?)
