I would of got 245/70/16 but it doesn't seem as if that is made for the KM2s, a lift is in the works, I know what I want, just need to get together the funds for it ;)

:( Not mounted yet, I may call the shop today and see if they are in... At first when we ordered them we were told it would take 3 days, then someone else at the shop mentioned a week or more. The week or more makes much more sense but I would rather then sooner than later. If I get them this weekend then I will have then out on some fire roads on Saturday :D

I got my lift installed and had my new KM2s put on yesterday. Oh and yes.... I am a... well... dumb :oops: . They are the 265/75 16 KM2s... lol. I got all my numbers mixed up. Anyway they really are a nice tire. The best thing about them are how they dont make too much noise on the highway. I kind of liked the noise but its ok... I also got an exhaust put on so it makes up for it. :twisted: I will post some pics as soon as I can.

Its a whole new Jeep! I doubt I will care about the tire noise, I'm used to the constant whine of winter tires, that even the radio can't drone out LOL

The KM2s are awsome!! They are not noisey on the highway and they are a great looking tire. Im going to be going up to the snow tomorrow so I will let you know how they do. Also I will be driving back to Texas from Colorado, so again I will give more feed back.

Here is a close up of the tread

I also got them syped (sp) for the rain and snow.

Scout, do you mean you chose them because of their siping for rain and snow?

AAAAAAAAH, ThunderbirdJunkie sees it now. If you look REALLY closely you can see the aftermarket siping.

Nevermind.

I always put my white letters out...guess you can do that when you never go 4 wheeling and you wash you truck every couple weeks! :D
Good looking tires too. I like those black wheels on Scouts Libby...sharp!

I've always been partial to blackwall's myself. Even so, I think it looks stupid when white letters or stripes are on the inside. We can still see them! Which reminds me, it's too bad BFG doesn't offer the AT's in blackwall.

Yeah its hard to see in the picture but they are siped. On MTRs they only sipe the center two rows. It cost $65 for all 5.
