In the rocks they work fine.

In the mud... Well they suck.

There some on here(who i am surprised have not chimed in yet) who will tell you that from personal experience.

I am not trying to put you down on your decision to go this route, not at all, just trying to help you out with what i have seen.

Problem is they clog with snow. I live at 9000ft in colorado rockies and we got a good amount this winter. With BFG AT going slow in 4wd I had 4crashes in 2weeks, though none major. Got some used generic AT's with worn studs and didnt slide even speeding in snow and ice. Thats a good deal though wish my cousin worked ata tire shop

yea thank god he did cus wouldnt have bought em if he didnt give me an insane discount.

FUDGE!!! i love the mud. does anyone know what a good tire is for mud

Anything with big voids. The stickier the mud the bigger the voids.

swampers are good. SSR's are really good on road and in the snow and act just like a normal super swamper off road.

the new good year kevilars are also very good(and strong!!)

the cheapo dunlop mud rovers are really good due to their voids and center rib pattern.

Just a good rule of thumb:

Stickier the mud, bigger the tread void.



cooper sst's are actually better in mud than the BFG's....

and the Pro Comp Extreme terrains are very good in the mud and on the road.



i have also heard good things about the silverstone m-117 extreme's. Good on road and excellent off road

I have some 35's that I'm selling. They are crap off road, even in the rocks. Takes to much tire spin to clean them out. On the road they act like any other radial tire. they are not very loud. that being said I WILL NEVER buy another set! you have so many other options out there that I would look into.

BFG Km 1rst model is actually really good in mud, road, and snow once sipped. Haven't played on the rocks yet so idk about there. If you can find a set grab em

Alot of my buddies ride toyo mt's. They're decent for treadwear if its your dd and do great in all environments. Plus not alot of noise. A little bit pricey depending on where you get them though.

I know my original post was about the km2's but the tire salesmen is trying to get me to buy General grabber at 2 in a 33x12.5r15, he says they are a better tire for less and I'm not sure about that. Any input from any one running these.

xjoffroad

hes on crack if he thinks a AT is better then a MT.

i love my KM2s! the only time they have actually caked up was when i went down a drop off into some soupy *** mud. the mud was just over the wheel. back and forth a couple times and i was out.. i would definitly recomend them! best tire ive owned right infront of my intercos. they are good tires but no road manners at all. i know i know its a mud tire but 15 oz of weight to balance one tire??? and i tried 180ing it and everything.
