You guys must get some crazy ****ing snow where you live!!! Well here in pa I have seen plenty of duratracs do amazing in the snow. Just bc you don't like them doesn't mean you should bash them. What if somebody was all like "that odgreen dude doesn't like these tires and he has a **** ton of posts! I better get bfg a/t's instead!" They would be in an even worse situation hahahaha

Km2s are good until they get hard and after that hold on cause you will be sliding.

No, because they are better... They are better. You can't tell me an a/t outperforms an m/t at anything other than iced roads.

Why? Every one hates wranglers. And bashes them. I still got one.

I would rather see bfg at's on rigs then duracraps.
I would rather see a person stuck then a person having to buy a whole new tire.
People keep asking "what should I get? Duratracks, km2's, or kevlars?"
I answer kevlars first. Km2's second, and never duracraps.

We were talking about snow wheeling, not icy roads. Did you read, or just but in? You always want to argue with me over the stupidest ****. I'm done.

You really didn't notice that sarcasm?? Come on man! I think wranglers are fine and km2's are in no way a bad tire. It was seriously a joke, anyone who buys a tire based on what you say on an internet thread is a moron and should own a prius. People need to stop giving advice when they have no experience. I have ran bfg a/t and duratracs, but have never had a set of km2's. So I won't pass judgment on the latter.

Mind you I hate km2's also.


That said. 8 hours in snow and they out performed every tire there other than the Kevlar and trepadors.

That includes all super swampers duracraps km1's procomp. Etc.

So the Kevlars are good in the snow? I need new tires and was honestly thinking about them.
