They're incredibly quiet. I don't hear them at all cruising around town. They sing a liiiiiittle bit at speeds above 55, but nothing I could even think to complain of. I'm stoked  :smokes:

Yep, they're KM2's. 35x12.50 15's

Drove out to my friends house tonight, bout a 30 minute drive varying speeds from 40-60. They're really comfortable on road, definitely quieter than the old shoes I was rollin on  :hump:

looks really nice with those tires - what's the actual diameter if you had a chance to measure them?

I'll definitely get them dirty, maybe this weekend. Actually I might go push off the sprint cars this weekend, I usually don't play in mud but it's always fun helping mud pack the track  :smokes:

I know the overall diameter is supposed to be 34.8, and side by side with my old tires they're a good 1.5-2" taller. I want to say the overall footprint with them mounted is around 9.5-10? That's what online specs said. Either way I'll have to see what they measure out to mounted on the jeep.

It makes me happy knowing I don't have crappy old tires anymore lol. I like tokeep my Jeep looking clean and NOT like a turd, new tires really make a huge difference. This is the first new set I've gotten to so I'm totally stoked  :thumbsup:

i currently have BFG M/Ts 33x12.5x15 and trying to figure out what my next tire will be - def these are up on the list.

Did you balance them? if you drive them on the hwy i would definitely do that or they will shake your rig quite a bit and will wear unevenly.

Yeah, they're balanced  :twofingers: 4WP just includes it with the price I guess?  Either way I would have done it. And they run WAY better on the highway than my old tires (they were balanced... at one time  :pirate:). My old tires shook the whole Jeep at speeds above 65, now that's all gone. I don't know what my speedo is at now but I know it's more off than it was. Gas mileage is better too, it usually takes me 1/4 tank to get to and from my friends house and this last trip took significantly less. I of course can't speak for what the mileage really is without having my odometer correct though

4" Rough Country springs in the front, 4" RE XD's in the rear, MORE 5/8's shackles, and a 1" BL  :beers:

I've driven an average of 45-50 miles on them every day this week and each mile I like them more and more. Any tire is an improvement over the old ones I was running but these things are pretty damn quiet and incredibly smooth on road. I'm stoked on 'em.
