I was leaning toward the General Tire Grabber also, but for the price, I will get a real MT

Do like the design tho, and the reviews

Everyone I have talked to said MT were horrible on the road, and I drive the XJ a fair amount on the highway, that is the only reason I went with an AT.

Km2s are not siped so they don't handle mushy snow as well as the duratracs. They handle packed snow, mud and rocks better. They use their krawler technology for the sidewalls. They are beast off road. Pretty quiet for the highway but there still is a hum. I love them.

hmm, thats good info. as far as snow, I'm sure they handle it a lot better than the wranglers I have now, and any other road tire most people have.

For tires I will end up with 2 sets. Street tires, and then for offroad, LTB's...you just can't beat them for offroad in my opinion, but you CANNOT drive them on the street.

Otherwise....I will go to Jon for the 33x10.5 KM2's and add extra siping with a groover.

Which one? The one who was sandwiched or the one who hit the pavement with their head?

the sandwiched guy wasn't sandwiched, he jumped into the back of his car and wasn't hit. The guy that learned to fly broke his leg
