    Yep. I think it's Toyo owns Nitto. They use the same tire compounds these days.

    Goodyear Duratracs A/T are good for road and mud from what I've heard. It will be my next set. They also have a new tire called Fierce that are an M/T

    It came down to these two for me, but I've been loyal to BFG, so I will go with the KM2s.

    OP, I've read from different reviews saying the KM2s are great! They are also pretty quiet on the highway.

    I almost got the tires myself, I went to Discount Tire for balance/rotation and the rep was trying to sell me the Hankooks for $114/tire.

    Trust me the BFG are better (you know that). The traction is all that great with the Hankook A/Ts...My NTGs were much better in off road traction :eek:

    I am thinking of ordering my next tires from online tires. They have the KM2s (31x10.5R15) priced at $130/tire. So I may purchase them from them and see if Discount Tire can warranty them for me when they mount it. I could save myself for about $150-200. When you placed your order, how long did you wait for it to arrive?

    I also thought of getting some Nitto Dune Grapplers from online tire ($103/tire). But I'm set on the KM2s.

    Personally, I have never wanted to spend money on MT because I have always seen them wear out within 30 -40k miles and humm like a tank. Sexxyyyyyy as hell but not when it affects my pocket.

    IMO, the Dueler Revos are nice tire. They clean better than the BFG AT which turn to slicks in any mud. Revos have great wet traction, and a nice smooth ride. I have had mine on now for about 40K miles and they still look new.

    This is correct. :)


    I've never been stuck in mud with my KM2s. They just keep going! They seem like they are going to last forever too. :eek:


    20,000 miles and they almost look new still! Just a little dirty. :p

    I have the Kumho KL71's. Only had them on for a couple hundred miles so can't really comment too much. There is a very slight hum on street but other than that they have pretty good street manners. I haven't been off road with them yet but when I do I will post up my opinions.
