funny, but I bought a set of km2s in February and had no issues about the backorder thing/ got them from Americas tire store. Now about the KM2s, I was advised to get them from Del A. He runs them and said it was a great tire, I have to agree, I love it. I was running MT BAja Claws but I think these are a much better tire. Oh the MT BC was a great tire on the dirt, but was useless on the street, and extremely loud. First trip on the KM2s was to Cal 4x4 convention this year in Primm, which was a great time, but anyway we got to do a run from riverside to stateline (great on the road) then go wheeling in Mud (good grip good self cleaning) in the snow (good grip and cleaning) on trails (good All Terrain work) and after that I have taken a few rock trails where the tires have stood up real well. I wold give them a 2 thumbs up.
I have run the mtzs on 2 rigs, my FJ Cruiser and my wife's Rubicon runs on them now, they are a good tire off Road but the best thing I can say about them is they are a great tire on the road. She does not really wheel the Rubicon hard and is her DD. Now on the FJ Cruiser I put a set of them through hell and they held up fine, good tires, I was running Baja Claws on my TJ at the time and will say the BCs are much better tire for the dirt, my feeling about the MTZ is it is a great tire for all around use, However since gettint the KM2s I would have to say it is a much better tire.Last edited by blackZZR; 04-24-09, 10:14 PM.censored for having an opinion

Ok here the deal! I got americas tire too price match those bfg km2's at $157 a tire compared to their $210 a tire but they said they had to add the shipping of ~$60. So with tax and $1.75 per tire bs fee it comes out to $813 mounted with new valve stems and lifetime balance. But guess what bfg has a $70 rebate if you buy 4 tires and I also get a $50 rebate if I use my discount tire credit card that has 0% interes for like 6 months. So $813-$120 is $693 when its all said and done. Not bad a bad deal if I do say so myself. I saved $200 by price matching alone .shoot I might even buy some new aluminum wheels now what do you guys think about these new eagle alloys they just came out with. http://www.americaneaglewheel.com/im...es/1002-M1.jpgThey do have 3.25 backspacing though you think that would be allright? I will be selling my 5 good 33" bfg mudders with soft 8 wheels in the bst forum to help pay for the wheels.Last edited by Jeeperator; 05-13-09, 10:57 PM.

Currently have KM2's -- thumbs up. Quiet and capable.
Have ProComp Xtreme Muds on a Zuk. -- The lugs are a little delicate if you work them hard. Wouldn't use them on a heavier vehicle, but great on my zuk.
Previously used Nitto MudGrapplers. Self-destructed, thumbs down.
Before that, MTR's. Nothing but good things to say about them, but I understand they may not do well in snow. Have also heard there's a newly upgraded design which is getting high reviews. Dunno

My view of best tires, in no order of preferance:
KM2s
Baja Claws
Creepys
Krawlers
Iroks
Tires that are asking for the failboat: MTRs. Never will i buy that tire again. Ill only run them if they are given to me for free, even then id try to sell them. (Most will disagree with me, but to each his own right )|90 XJ|4.0|AX-15|NP231|RE H&T|TnT Y-Link|RE Coils|BOR Leaves|ACOS|D30/Aussie|8.8/ARB|35" Kevlar MTRs|Custom Exo,Sliders,Bumpers|
