Just got my KM3's mounted! (Long term update)

yah sucks. I new they were going to run small but still never set in until I mounted them. I also went from an 8.5 to a 9" rim so that likely is not helping. The wider you go the lower the tire generally will be. Yah crazy to think I would have to go a 37 in some sizes to get a 35 but that opens up a bunch of other things even if not tall enough that is going to be an even heavier tire.

that was another thing the KM3 is HEAVY!!!!

 

I wouldn’t run 35’s on my truck and I almost thought about buying them this go around to see if they worked out to be a real 33 but yeah weight was important to me. My 12.5 coopers are lighter then 10.5 KM3’s

 

yah funny how that works out.

 

ok, my fox 2.0s only go up to 2” but I do plan on cutting parts of the fenders liner as well as the pinch weld. And im on -19 offset so not sure how that will affect things. Thanks for the info!

 

thats crazy! Had no idea they ran so small! I don’t really mind though I don’t have a huge lift and want to keep it that way so this is still the perfect tire for me. Makes me wonder how much bigger they will be than my current tires which I swear run big. They are stock size 31x10.5 duratracs but look bigger than stock for sure. At least to me

 

grab a tape measure and see. They may be more true to size on smaller rims too. larger rims will stretch smaller. they are def bigger than my 285's but mounted are not as big as they should be.

 

They actually came out to under 30 so I guess either way im gaining about 2 inches in tire. Thanks for the input

 

I randomly saw a 2nd gen at Costco the other day that had KM3's on it. I checked out the size and they said the were 285's but I could have sworn they were 265's. They looked pretty small for 33's
