    Ok guys im looking for a little input on the goodyear mtr w/kevlar, bfg km2s and other recommendations you may have. I live in central oregon so i see a mix of everything from sharp rocks, sand, mud and hard pack. I do drive on the road quit a bit but drive my other car most of the time. I have heard nothing but good things about the mtr's for sharp rocks and the km2s seem to be the ole faithful of mt tires. I have a set of duratracs on now but they make me pretty nervous when i start seeing sharp lava rock although ive never had a problem.

    Hankook Dynapro ATMs are available in 285/75/16. I currently have 265/70/17s on my truck and I love them. They've been awesome in everything from sand at the ocean, to snow in the mountains, to sharp rocks.

    I 2nd Hankook Dynapro ATMs. I dont have to deal with the snow and rain that you do...but for the decent crawling I have done, I am very impressed. Road noise around town is not bad at all either.
