They were just under $1100 mounted and balanced, which is actually a pretty good deal. Tire prices are ridiculous these days.

Nice work Sheriff! The only thing that would have made if better was a clearer and brighter photo on my part. That photoshop stuff has always impressed me.

Me too. Plenty of room for flex.

By the way, what liner did you use, and how many gallons? I am going to line the bottom of my truck as soon as spring hits.

Thanks guys!


98Blue-Ram, I'm kinda unsure of which liner I have. I have a friend in the body shop business who did it for me... after he replaced a cab corner and a few other areas. I think it is called something like Malhyde, but not sure. Its not too stout, I know that much. Already have a few chips in it.

I gotta somewhat disagree. Although I really don't care for the new MTR look and tread pattern either, I will say the last style MTR was a great tire. The ones I had performed flawlessly on everything from street, sand, snow, and mud. If I could have gotten the old style tread again, I very well would have gotten those instead of these KM2's... it would have been a hard decision for me.

You like those do ya? They look very close to the BFG's AT, and I know those work well. If I was in the market for an AT, I think those would be the ones I would get. Especially with the much cheaper price!

Yep, rubbing sucks. I will say though, with no sway bar I couldn't get my 35's to rub at all, well, except on the stupid control arms. 6" is just enough for 35's on a skinny wheel with decent backspacing.
