Thanks guys! This may not be happening now but we'll see. Looking forward to get some time in wooded trails. I've been in rocky sandy desert but not so much in the wooded areas. It'd be great to get some wheel time in the woods. Take Care.

you can find some pretty good deals. but i decided not to go km2 cause of the shear amount of miles ill put on em. im going BFG AT i know many guys with 80,000+ miles on em. and they have darn good traction off road.

as far as tires ,i like mine but there not good on snow and km2's price is high considering you will put holes in the sidewalls way b4 you wear them out. go with a cheaper one with strong side walls that still flex a little for wrapping Around rocks. when you find it let me know!

those 31's served me well!!! i learned alot on them and had a BLAST on deer valley. it think it was a great size to start on, i have learned a lot about jeeps and now know what to upgrade and so fourth. Im pretty sure im gonna go with my pro-comps again. They wrapped pretty decent on DV and did awesome in the snow.

I do like the Dunlop Mud Rover. For the price you can't beat it. Great traction deep lugs and even had one set last damn near 50K. Tim seems to like his Mud Rovers too. ROCKCRAWLER did a very real life test of them as well. They really liked them.
ROCKCRAWLER.com - Dunlop Raidal Mud Rover Tires
Tire Rack has them listed at 161.00 each or a set of 4@644.00
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/TireSe...er=15&x=65&y=8
I have also included a picture of what your Cherokee would look like with them on.

Do there 33's run big?? I know my Pro-Comp 31's ran almost 32's!
What are the pros and cons of your tires? They seemed to have performed pretty good on all the trails.
it also says they dont have a good sidewall?? I do live in Reno and all that we have up here are Rocks! and lots of them. So a decent sidewall is key!

Dunlop seems to run a little under the height. I have not had any real problems. The only con I can think of but I haven't missed it on the trail is the lack of sidewall lugs. Then again sidewall lugs actually hampers sidewall contours to rocks and things. In mud they clean out very well. Sand hasn't been problem like most other aggressive mud treads. On wet roads they grip just as they do on dry roads. Snow is not a problem and even on ice I can get traction. Also they are a whole lot lighter than KM2's and the Toyo's. Like I said one set I almost got 50K out of them, damn hard to beat that with a Mud Tire.

Thats true.. well in that case, i mine as well go 35's?? if 33's are 32's
Well its between these and pro-comps. I like how my Pro-Comps size up a little bit and were awesome to me. They just dont wear to friendly. I have only 6k on them but i feel like they should be at full tread still. Then again i drive on crappy roads. Its gonna be a hard decision. I should be ordering my RC LA's, RC shackles, and RE coils after my 3 finals 2moro... In the meantime, back to studying!!! Gotta pull off this C in Econ. (i have an A in every other class  Mommas gonna be proud!)
