    the single BEST set of MT tires i had for offroad use was the TRXUS M/T...

    ive run thru those, mastercraft courser MTs and BFG MTs

    the mastercrafts were GREAT onroad...they wore evenly and didnt cup until i just didnt rotate them...ever...and i put close to 40K on them before i sold them to upgrade to a larger tire...when i sold them they had plenty of tread left on them for the next guy...ask Luni...he bought them

    My BFGs have prob 10-15K on them...and wore OK...but started riding rough in the past couple of 1000 miles...

    the TRXUS i got maybe 20K miles out of...i ran them till they were almost bald...NOT good for heavy on-road use...but AMAZING offroad


    i got to the point after 4 years of MTs...i HATE riding on them...

    beautiful washington state
    Mine are only 265/70's and my gas mph dropped to 19 hwy which was 20 on the the dunlops. What is everyone averaging with the km's at the same size? 33's will hurt mph no matter what the tire is. All in all, I like the Toyo's but also really like the KM2's and in the big picture 1 to 2 mph difference is not that much more $$. good luck!
