BFG KM2s
Is anyone running or know anyone that is running these tires? I am interested in how well or bad they are wearing.

Re: BFG KM2s
I have a set KM2s on my 52 M38A1 in 33 10.50 15, but it's not really applicable to you. The jeep is so light and only sees off-road and around the block action. With 100 or so miles off road and 20 or so on road, the little nubbies don't even show wear and I have a LockRight in the rear. I run the tires at 14 psi and they don't even bulge. Heading for 12 next to see what happens. All in all, I think they are a great tire.

Re: BFG KM2s
i do not own a set yet but mu buddie has a set of 31x10.50 25s on his bronco and loves them.. i am currently saving pennies for a set of 35x12.50 15 for my 68 k20 nothing bad to say of them maybe a little noise but i would rather have that and know the tires will get me some where then has quiet ones and second guess the road or trail. these tires are also 60,000 mile m/ts. on my ford i have a set of nexen m/ts they are a 50,000 m/t no noise they are 31x10.50 15s and they are a lot cheaper then the km2s

Re: BFG KM2s
looking at putting these on the cummings in a 315/75/16. have had goodyear mtr's on it for the last 5 years and they wore/still wearing better than I would ever had imagined. I have always gotten great wear out of BFGs in the past,just wasn't sure if things had changed with this new tread design.

Re: BFG KM2s
My Duramax eats the TKO AT's, but I really like 'em and will keep buying them. I pull a trailer quite a bit and am a lead foot as well. (No burnouts or other abuse) I get about 30k out of the E rated 265 70 17's.
