Saving for Tires

[Lycaøn]

im choosing these tires based on price ranges, feel free to suggest more within the price range

[HeavyMetal]

does your jeep see lots of street time? if so, cross them LTBs off the listt right away IMO.

[Lycaøn]

yea, need them to last, haha thats why im getting new ones

[HeavyMetal]

LTBs will not last. exnay on those.

from that list i would try the KM2s...scratch all swampers off if youre worried about lasting

[Lycaøn]

alright well that boils it down, ive only had experience with the km1s are the km2s a little stickier?

[HeavyMetal]

no personal experience with them whatsoever, but from what ive heard and seen, id say theyre worth a shot. they certainly arent bad

[Lycaøn]

alright ill look into them over the others

parnelli jones - dirt grip

look at these. my friend had them in 33's and LOVED them, 6 ply radial! they are tough as heel, and i think they lasted a long time as well

The tires were tested by Petersen's Four Wheel and Off Road Magazine (May 2001 issue). They were rated outstanding in all conditions. They proved a good self-cleaning ability in mud, floated in the sand dunes, gripped the rocks and boulders, and gripped in the snow due to the aggressive shoulder blocks, deep siping, and wide open voids.

The tire also performs very smoothly and quietly on the highway for this type of tire due to the PJ tread design which is similar to a rib highway tire.

Four Wheeler (January 2002 issue) also tested the tires and rated them (on a scale of 1-5) 4 stars in the mud, 4 stars in rocks, 5 stars in sand, and 4 stars in the street.
