Got the new KM2's on!!

Man these are SWEET tires. I comepletely 100% love them to DEATH. Arnt any louder than my old 33" toyos were, and as far as power loss goes.. i cant really feel any thing at all. It pretty much drives exactly as it did before. Reason being is because i went from a 13.50 wide tire to the 12.50 wide tire, and a 10" wide wheel to a 8" wide wheel. Plus, the 35's weigh like 14lbs less than the 33" toyos did

Any ways ill get to the good part .. here you guys go

Before (Sorry not with hard top on though):


After:






Next up to do is the front and rear tube fenders.. i just ordered 'em so its jsut a matter of time now . I'll definately post pictures for you all when i get em on

I just mounted my 35/12.50's today too. Great tire. Road noise minimal, I hear more wind noise than tire. Handle great highway and off road. I want to test it in the rocks here in Arkansas to see if side walls will hold up.

Heres a link to the tires, looks like they are having a pretty good sale right now if you buy in the next few hours.
