Kumho Tires?

[mdoyle]

I just went through this decision myself and ended up buying Toyo Open Country M/T 's in the 35/12.5/17 size for the stock rims.

I couldn't be happier, the online specs talked about the computer designed tread blocks that cancel out road noise and I'm here to say it's true! They are at least as quite as the stock BFG TA/KO 's.

I'll try to snap some pics this weekend. The price mounted & balanced with road hazard was $285 each + tax. Normally they would have charged and extra $15 per wheel for the mount & balance but I traded in two used TA/KO's since this place sells a lot of used tires.

In comparision, the best price I found on BFG TA/KO's was at Sam's Club for $233 out the door with an optional road hazard for around $19 more but I figured and extra $50 was worth it to get what I really wanted.

The Toyo M/Ts look very aggressive but ride nice and quiet. Some of the post about other brands of M/T tires I read complained about road noise, specifically the Nitto Mud Grapplers.

I knew I'd catch grief if I didn't get them posted this weekend
