Now that I think about it. I ripped a 4" tear in my sidewall. Had to replace it. I like my km2s though. Just depends what u wanna do with ur Jeep. Mainly on road and a little offroad and with snow coming soon, duratracs. A lot of offroading and street use, km2s. All offroading, those federals. Kid I offroad with runs those. Do great.

10.50 will be close to stock width and be what I call a pizza cutter.

I think a lot of people are scared of them because they are not common.
So far they have been great. I have the 16in 10ply tires. So I don't know how the normal ones are. These are awesome and pretty bullet proof.
I was going to buy the Big horns that you mentioned. But decided to go with these.

And pick up a pizza cutter. Roll it across the counter. That's what a 10.50 tire looks to me since I have a 12.50 tire on a 10 inch rim.
Like I said it will stick out. And I fix where I rub with a grinder or a hammer. Lol
