    Good Afternoon guys I have 4 of these waiting to be mounted on my truck and my question to y'all was what would you guys go with either the KM2's like pictured here on Andrews truck or should I go with the All- Terrain BF K'OS.
    I know I should be taking a hit on my mpg but is it that big of a difference when it comes to putting mud terrains over all terrains? Also I am a little worried about road noise, is there a big diff when it comes to that as well? I live in Denver so do see some months of snow.

    Any input would be great thanks for the help!

    You will be fine/if not better in the snow with all-terrains unless it is extremely deep snow.

    If you are at all worried about road noise, do not get the mud terrains. they aren't super loud, but they are a mud tire, so they are louder than the ATs will be.

    As far as MPGs - it has a lot to do with tire weight. if both tires are E load range, you will get similar mpgs with them.

    As mentioned above, if you're concerned about road noise, mud terrains aren't for you. The BFG A/T isn't a great tire, in my opinion, but it's the one I would choose given the 2 options you posted.

    this...

    and I will never buy BFG A/T's again.. but.. at least they FINALLY gave it a facelift.

    I would recommend Toyo ATII's.. or even Nitto Terra Grapplers.

    I wouldn't, great traction but overall I didn't like those at all. I couldn't get them to wear evenly to save my life.
