  • Tire recommendations

    I'm looking for your feedback on the tires you've been using. I see a lot of people using the BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2. I was thinking about those as well as the Wrangler MT/R with Kevlar. 5 tires and wheels are a huge investment. Any feedback would be appreciated.

      I just put the duratracs from Goodyear on mine. 235/75/15. Quiet and look good. Sidewalks seem a little thin, but I'm used to dealing with bias ply swampers.

          Marc, I looked at those for my Dodge last week. Good looking tire. Thanks

              More DD than wheeling but wanna be ready if I decide to get rough with it. They're sure proud of the Toyo's, aren't they!

                  I have the Nitto Trail Grapplers on my DD, I like them a lot. They have a look of an old BFG.

                    No experience with the Duratracs as of yet but I plan to go with a set of them on the '71 Ferd for DD/ occassional offroading duties.

                        I have the nitto trail grapplers on my DD They suck in the mud. Big fan of the procomps Xterrain and Mud terrain last a long time on the street and no issues in mud and snow. Got a buddy who is running the new M16 from interco. nice looking tire not loud seems good in mud and snow.

                          X3 on the KM2's. I haven't had them off road yet but I was surprised how quiet they are. Or maybe it's just that my rig is so loud.

                            From what I've seen of the Toyo Open Country MTs I'm very impressed. I just put a set of Toyo ATs on my DD and they're by far the most grippy tire I've run on that truck yet in the rain. And as others have said you can't go wrong with KM2s, especially now that the "old" MTR design is history. Mixed reviews on the MTR/Kevlars.
