which is the better tire?
Which tire would be better to run the new mud terrain km2 from bfg or the new goodyear wrangler mtr with kevlar. Want other peoples opinion
|
depends what you do with your truck man
|
Mud rock sand snow pretty anything in front of me
|
I got the KM2's after being a goodyear guy for years and cant find anything wrong with them yet!
|
take a look at wrangler duratrec https://www.cherokeeforum.com/member...422-1430-1.jpg
|
Yea I have a friend with the km2 they are a good self cleaning tire. Just want more opinions on them. I'm looking at runnig a 33 whichever I get
|
The KM2 is a mud tire and does well as such also good in rocks. The Goodyear MT/R is not a mud tire (the MT/R stands for maximum traction reinforced) I ran the old version and they were OK, heavy as hell but OK. I know a few who had the new version and sold them because they don't clean well and grip in the rocks is lacking plus they are directional so rotating is strickly front to rear.

I prefer Cooper Discoverer S/TT's
|
I hear the new MTR's sidewalls are really stiff

The mag reported the tires did great, however I heard (shop owner with a customer in the event) that the mtr's were not well loved by the competitors. HAving said that, those guys typically run competition tires from BFG/Maxxis/MT etc. Bla bla bla... I went from SuperSwamper TSL's to the km2's (mostly for the streetability) and was very happy to experience that they do better off road than did the TSL's. We don't get much mud exposure in phoenix AZ but I can report that in rocks, wet rocks, gravel, sand and decomposed granite the km2's work very well. |
One of the guys from the UA is on a local forum and had his GYs for sale the day he got home.

I have run the km2's for a year now and i am very happy with them.
