Default Tires??

Just bought my 3rd Cherokee (2000)
I'm going to install a 4" lift to run 31s. In the past I've always run BFG AT k0s. Looking for the same for this jeep, but I'm told the new BGF AT kK 2s are not as good as the old ones. Any other suggestions? I've not had good luck with Goodyear Wranglers.

Seriously? Sweet! I just saw this yesterday on tire rack and I was curious how they perform. My rig is my DD so I don't want to suffer too much. Planing on 32s myself.

My 30s destination a/t are awesome for what they are. VERY mild a/t tire.

I've been running General Grabber AT2 for about 6 months and so far I like them. I got them on sale for about 100 bucks off. A lot of good ratings on them and also for those fun countries.

Everything I have read on the reviews and testing of the KO2 has been they are better in nearly all aspects from the last gen KO.

I've run bfg ATS, hankook dynapro ATM, Goodyear duratracs and general grabber red labels. Thing I found out is dynapros performed best in mud, duratracs in snow and red labels in everything else. If I had to do it again, I would run the general grabber red labels in a heart beat.

Get more while you can. Kumho is looking to replace the KL78 with a new AT. It looks promising in its own way, but certainly very different than the jack of all trades KL78.
