    We just put a set on my cousins 2000 Taco and he really likes them.
    I am getting them in the next month or so as my Coopers are wearing out (63K) and the price is right on the Kumho's.

    Mine are 285/75/16's. So far I love them. The noise isn't bad and the mileage is doing good so far. I haven't really got to test them much offroad, but from what I have done with them, they did great. Here are a couple pics.

    I ALMOST went with these tires until I found out what country they were made in. Then my logic kicked in and told me if I'm going to already drop minimum $600 why not spend a $150 more and the get THE best tires for the money so I went with Goodyear Duratracs and really glad I made that decision.

    Yea I have definitely noticed they aren't very good in the rain. I just about lost it on the interstate a couple weeks ago. I downshifted to go around someone and they broke loose. They did it a couple times and I finally gave up and just stayed behind the person. I was running about 60mph and only downshifted to 4th.
